HOW DOES NORMATEC WORK?

RELAX + RECOVER

NormaTec started as a medical company—science is in their DNA. It is always working with researchers to study and develop the effectiveness of its patented technology. NormaTec is a clinically proven method to increase circulation, reduce soreness, and help athletes perform at their best every day.

HOW IT WORKS: BIOMIMICRY

PULSING:

• Instead of using static compression (squeezing) to transport fluid out of the limbs, NormaTec Pulse Technology uses dynamic compression (pulsing).

• NormaTec patented pulsing action effectively mimics the muscle pump of the legs and arms, greatly enhancing the movement of fluid and metabolites out of the limbs after an intense workout.

GRADIENTS:

• Our veins and lymphatic vessels have one-way valves that prevent fluid backflow. Similarly, NormaTec Pulse Technology uses hold pressures to keep fluids from being forced in the wrong direction. Because of this enhancement, instead of tapering pressure off, the NormaTec PULSE PRO can deliver maximum pressure in every zone.

DISTAL RELEASE:

• Because extended static pressure can be detrimental to the body’s normal circulatory flow, Sequential Pulse Technology releases the hold pressures once they are no longer needed to prevent backflow.

• By releasing the hold pressure in each zone as soon as possible, each portion of the limb gains maximal rest time without a significant pause between compression cycles.
