Normatec Recovery

Lots of people deal with sluggish circulation, which can leave the extremities feeling uncomfortable. Because Normatec boots are designed to support blood flow all the way to your toes, they may help your legs and feet feel better.

In the area of fitness, this may support your body's natural recovery process after you work out. Potential benefits include less feeling of soreness, swelling, and stiffness in your legs.

Even outside of fitness, supporting circulation may help your feet feel less cold and may support overall comfort in your legs.

Normatec therapy may be beneficial for many people.

Anyone who feels heaviness or swelling in their legs may enjoy Normatec recovery, as it is designed to support circulation. If you have edema or another medical condition, check with your healthcare provider first.

Athletes or those who simply want to be fitter may find Normatec a helpful part of their leg recovery routine. If you’ve had an injury or surgery, talk with your doctor before booking a session.

Finally, anyone who’s even simply had a long day on their feet may also enjoy this session. It’s very relaxing overall too!

Here at Recovery Lab, our trained Recovery Specialists will start by verbally walking you through the process on top of physically being there for you during your session.

Each session will generally last half an hour up to a whole hour, but this will be after you get set up in the Normatec boots, so the whole process does take even longer.

While it’s going on, you can lean back and relax as you feel the boots sequentially inflate and deflate on your legs. Many people compare the sensation to a gentle and leisurely massage.

While Normatec recovery can be a great way to support circulation, it isn’t suitable for everyone, including people with deep vein thrombosis, uncontrolled hypertension, or vascular disease. We also advise you to start with lower settings and to see how they work before going to ones with higher pressure.

Also, your session shouldn’t last longer than our specialist will recommend after getting to know you and getting some details from you about your health.

Finally, it’s worth keeping in mind that it’s not a substitute for stretching, and you should pay extra attention to staying hydrated before and after your session.
