Whether you’re an athlete, live an active lifestyle or lead a sedentary life, you can really benefit from the use of compression therapy.

Instead of using static compression (squeezing) to transport fluid out of the limbs, Sequential Pulse Technology uses dynamic compression (pulsing) and holds pressure to keep fluids from being forced in the wrong direction. The massage pattern starts in the foot, hand, or upper quad and moves upwards zone-by-zone massaging the limb and mobilizing fluid out of the extremities.

Before the NormaTec Pulse massage pattern begins, you will experience a pre-inflate cycle, during which the connected attachment is molded to your exact body shape. Once the pre-inflate cycle is complete, the NormaTec Pulse massage pattern will begin by compressing your feet, hands or upper quad (depending on which attachment you are using).

Similar to the kneading and stroking performed during a massage, each zone of the attachments will first compress in a pulsing manner and then release as the compression pattern works its way up your limb. When the top zone completes its massage, there will be a brief rest period and then the cycle will begin again. This will repeat until the session time runs out.
