Here at The Performance Lab, we offer the next evolution of the iconic Normatec series with dynamic air compression to advance your wellness, help you recover faster, improve your training, and maximize 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.

What Is Normatec Compression Therapy?

Normatec compression therapy is an innovative form of medical therapy that uses a patented technology to deliver pulsing, dynamic compression that mimics the natural process of muscle movement. It helps improve circulation and reduce pain by increasing blood flow to the affected area. Normatec utilizes custom-molded boots or sleeves that are filled with air and connected to a compressor. The compression is cycled through the boots or sleeves in a pulsing motion, which helps promote improved circulation and muscle recovery. 

Who Needs Normatec Compression Therapy?

Normatec compression therapy is often used by athletes after high-intensity workouts, as it has been proven to help reduce soreness and improve physical performance. It can also be used for those recovering from surgery or injury, as it helps to reduce swelling and improve blood circulation. Normatec compression therapy is also great for those looking to increase flexibility or mobility in certain areas of the body or those with poor circulation. Additionally, many medical professionals recommend Normatec compression therapy as a part of a comprehensive treatment plan for conditions such as lymphedema and venous insufficiency.

The Science behind compression therapy

Using dynamic air compression to create a restorative massage, Normatec's patented Pulse technology helps you feel refreshed faster. Seven levels of compression deliver precise treatment to 5 overlapping zones with ZoneBoost™ by using biomimicry to replicate the natural muscle pumps and one-way valves of the legs.

Frequently Asked Normatec Compression Questions

  • How does NormaTec benefit athletes?

    Athletes can gain significant benefits from NormaTec Compression Therapy. It helps accelerate recovery after intense training by facilitating the removal of lactic acid and metabolic waste. This improved circulation can reduce muscle soreness and stiffness, leading to quicker recovery times and better athletic performance.

  • Is NormaTec Compression Therapy safe?

    NormaTec is generally considered safe for most people. The therapy is non-invasive and controlled, with adjustable settings to ensure comfort and effectiveness. However, people with certain medical conditions should avoid this therapy, so it’s crucial to consult with a professional at The Performance Lab before starting treatment.

  • How often should I use NormaTec Compression Therapy?

    The frequency of NormaTec sessions varies depending on individual goals and needs. Some may benefit from daily sessions, while others might find a few times a week sufficient. 

  • What can I expect during a NormaTec session?

    During a session, you will wear the NormaTec attachments on the targeted areas. The device will then go through a cycle of compression and relaxation, which feels like a firm massage. Sessions typically last between 30 to 60 minutes, during which you can relax and enjoy the therapy’s soothing effects.

"I was referred to the Performance Lab by two people for muscle tension, headaches, and arthritic pain. I have a membership for monthly massages and didn't think there would be much of a difference between the two but I was so wrong! Becky, Melissa, and Jordan have all treated me and I can’t say enough about how great they are! The treatment has done wonders for my headaches and I can’t imagine going anywhere else now!"

"Best place for physical therapy for back issues. My daughter missed a whole year of gymnastics due to back issues and we were recommended to the Performance Lab. She went twice a week for the whole year and was able to compete states, regionals and easterns without doing any meets for the entire year. Thank you Jordan for all that you did to help in getting her where she needed to be to compete."
