Normatec Boots
Increase circulation, reduce soreness and maximize the benefits of your osteogenic loading session
Peristaltic pulse dynamic compression (PPDC) has long been used by athletes to boost blood flow and remove metabolites from the body. But when athletes at the U.S. Olympic Training Center Recovery Center used these devices for their recovery, they experienced something unexpected: a rapid increase in their flexibility1 . This sparked further study on the effects of PPDC—and fostered widespread use of such devices, which use rhythmic applications of pressures on the limbs.
In the world of PPDC devices, NormaTec is an undoubted leader. Its professional grade recovery systems are portable and easy to use, giving our members the benefits of targeted pulse compression after their osteogenic loading sessions. The devices use three key techniques—pulsing, distal release and gradients—to maximize recovery between training, after performance and from injury.
After putting on the NormaTec boots, you’ll experience a pre-inflate cycle, during which the boots mold to your exact body shape. Next comes dynamic compression, which is similar to the kneading and stroking you experience during a massage. This pulsing pattern works its way up your limb to mobilize fluid and metabolites. By utilizing gradient technology, the boots keep fluids from being forced in the wrong direction while providing maximum pressure in every zone. Extended static pressure can be detrimental to the body’s circulation; NormaTec boots use distal release to end its “hold” pressure in each zone as soon as possible. This maximizes rest time without causing a significant pause between compression cycles.
BONE DENSITY BENEFITS
Remove metabolites passively: Maximizes recovery after your osteogenic loading session by reducing blood lactate levels
HEALTH AND WELLNESS BENEFITS
Increases flexibility: Rapidly enhances the acute range of motion faster, with no discomfort.
Decreases sensitivity to pain: Accelerates and enhances recovery by reducing muscle tenderness from pressure, allowing you to experience more pressure before experiencing pain.
Curbs muscle fatigue: Increases blood flow to lower extremities, which helps manage exercise-induced delayed onset muscle soreness.
Enhances recovery: Lowers creatine kinase (CK), a marker of muscle damage.
CONTRAINDICATIONS

PUREWAVE PEMF MAT
PureWave is a leader in Bioenergetics; the science of how energy is transferred in cells, tissues, and organs. These processes have a fundamental influence on our health.
HYDROMASSAGE
Harness the healing power of water therapy.
Similar to a powerful shower massage without getting wet, HydroMassage uses waves of heated water to provide an experience that’s especially effective after an osteogenic loading session. In addition to helping relieve any tension or stiffness, it also can enhance your overall feeling of well-being and relaxation.
BIOCHARGER
Enhance your energy and overall well-being with energy medicine.
BioCharger is a subtle energy revitalization platform that uses four types of transmitted energy—light, Voltage, frequencies, harmonics and Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Fields (PEMFs)—to stimulate and invigorate the body. A touch-free, safe, rejuvenating full-body treatment, BioCharger supports the recovery of strength, stamina, coordination and mental clarity.

VIBE PLATE
Engaging every tendon, muscle and cell in building bone density.
At OsteoStrong, we use the VibePlate™ both before and after an osteogenic loading session to maximize our members’ experience. Before osteogenic loading, a VibePlate™ session activates muscular tissue, increases circulation and up-regulates the Human Growth Hormone. This helps members to get the most out of their Spectrum circuit. After a session, VibePlate™ enhances the benefits of osteogenic loading on balance.
JOOVV RED LIGHT THERAPY
Stimulate healing and improve bone health with red light therapy.
Red light therapy is a simple, non-invasive treatment that delivers red and near-infrared light to a person’s skin and cells. A red light therapy home device like a Joovv uses LEDs to shine red and near-infrared light on your body during a treatment session.
A class II medical device, Joovv delivers red and near-infrared wavelengths directly to the body using medical-grade LEDs. These wavelengths trigger a chemical reaction in the cells’ mitochondria that, in turn, boosts ATP energy and enhances cell triggering. Red light therapy has been shown to enhance members physical performance and balance the body’s inflammatory effects by boosting cellular energy and cutting down on oxidative stress. This can help decrease joint pain by improving blood flow to damaged tissue and has been shown to improve osteoarthritis in numerous peer-reviewed studies.
