About NormaTec
NormaTec Recovery Systems are aggressive recovery solutions that supercharge the body’s natural ability to recover. While you rest, NormaTec Systems simulates active recovery using their patented massage pattern—“Sequential Pulse Technology.” Using NormaTec’s full-length leg compression boots before or after an intense workout helps rejuvenate muscle tissue and dramatically reduces tightness and soreness—meaning no more heavy legs, less downtime, and new PR’s.
This technology is available today because of the pioneering work by NormaTec’s late founder, Dr.. Laura F. Jacobs. Dr. Jacobs was a rehabilitation physician and Ph.D. bioengineer, who saw a major need for effective treatment modalities for patients with circulation compromised by disease, surgery, trauma, and radiation. After success in medicine, NormaTec then entered the sports industry in 2008 to apply Sequential Pulse Technology’s physiological benefits to help athletes recover from workouts and rehabilitate after injuries. Since then, NormaTec has become the face of recovery within elite athletic spheres everywhere.
