Normatec Recovery Sessions

Here at FYZICAL Daphne, we offer sessions where you can use the Normatec technology.

What Is the Normatec Series?

The Normatec series from Hyperice is a patented precision pulse technology that helps you feel refreshed faster. Normatec was designed by an MD, PhD and is trusted by top athletes looking to advance their wellness and recover faster, though it is not only used for athletes. Using a dynamic air compression massage, the Normatec series has many benefits including helping with

Increasing Circulation
Reviving Muscles
Reducing Swelling
Reducing Muscle Soreness
Reducing Recovery Time
Speeding Lactate Clearance
Increasing Mobility

Whether you are a professional athlete, engage in intensive workouts, have poor circulation, or work on your feet all day long, the Normatec can provide you with benefits by increasing blood circulation and therefore aid in supplying oxygen and nutrients to your body's muscles.

What Can It Be Used For?

Normatec is commonly used by athletes for better muscle recovery and performance. In particular, professional athletes have noted benefits related to decreased muscle soreness and enhanced recovery following particularly strenuous workouts, activities, or competitions. Additionally, some use Normatec to aid in warm-ups prior to workouts or competitions. However, Normatec is versatile and can be used whether you are recovering from intense training, strenuous activity, or an injury or if you are just seeking relief from everyday muscle fatigue. It is a valuable tool for anyone engaging in physical activity.

Pre-workout: High-tech warm-up, promote blood flow
Post-workout recovery: Speed up muscle recovery, decrease muscle fatigue and stiffness
Injury rehab (acute & chronic) / post-op rehab: reduce edema, pain & stiffness; increase ROM, prevent further injury

To offer the ultimate massage experience, the Normatec series uses 7 levels of compression, Zoneboost® technology, and Hyperice's patented Pulse technology to treat 5 overlapping zones in both the arms and legs as well as 2 zones in the hips.
