“We were born in the training rooms. We started because no one cared more about recovery than us. We exist because we saw that there was a better way to recover, get better, and be better.“
Focused on warmup, recovery and longevity for all types of athletes, Hyperice are obsessed with the thought of getting athletes back on the court faster, on the pitch, or the road, and to be able to compete at their best. Yes, it was about winning, but more than anything it was about the ability to compete at your best, forever.
The road to recovery after an exercise or training session will never be the same again. You’ve seen all your favourite celebrities and sportsmen, from Kylie Jenner, to Naomi Osaka, to the Springboks use this device called Normatec. So what is the hype all about?
Normatec 3 is the next evolution of the iconic Normatec series, using dynamic air compression to advance your wellness, recover faster, improve your training, and maximise your performance. Normatec’s patented precision pulse technology helps to increase circulation, revive muscles, and reduce swelling and has long been the choice of elite athletes and consumers throughout the globe.
Taking the restorative massage experience further, the Normatec 3 is a system created with the greatest performance and customisation yet. It is a system to help professionals raise their game to new heights.
But, what is compression therapy?
Compression therapy has been around for decades as a medical treatment. In fact, Normatec started as a medical device company to treat a condition called lymphedema (chronic swelling). Now the company’s focus is athletic recovery, but its roots lie in the science of blood flow: Your circulatory system delivers oxygen, nutrients and hormones to every cell in your body. Simultaneously, this complex circuit removes metabolic wastes such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid, effectively flushing your system of toxins.
The idea behind compression therapy is that by increasing blood flow to specific parts of the body (encouraging your body to deliver more oxygen and nutrients to those areas) you can speed up recovery, relieve pain and improve athletic performance.
The benefits of this recovery method, which are essentially the benefits of improved blood flow, include:
· Reducing swelling and inflammation
· Speeding up muscle recovery
· Preventing delayed-onset muscle soreness
· Relieving muscle pain
· Improving athletic performance
· Increasing flexibility and range of motion
· Removing exercise-related wastes, like lactic acid
· Decreasing muscle fatigue
Whether you’re an athlete with recovery in mind, or a mother with heavy and tired legs, the Normatec 3 is here to quickly become your best friend. The Normatec 3 Legs puts you in control of your session. Pre-programmed and custom modes, each with various adjustable settings, allow you to tailor your massage needs so you can warm up and recover your own way. Backed by Science this device is engineered for the world’s best athletes and active individuals alike. Packed with patented and proven technology, the device is all controlled by a customisable experience in the Hyperice App.
