What is Normatec compression therapy?

Normatic compression therapy is a targeted restorative massage therapy that applies dynamic pneumatic compression via expert-designed, wearable equipment available for the legs/feet, arms and hips.

Normatec is a premium, well-known product in fitness and therapeutic industries for maximising sports and muscle recovery associated with athletic activity and working out, improved mobility and treatment of injuries and conditions associated with the circulatory system. 

How does Normatec compression therapy work?

Normatec’s inflatable compression garments surround the area and deliver intermittent compression – providing massage and increasing fluid movement in target areas and blood flow throughout the body. 

The pulsing (pumping) action mimics natural muscle pumps using hold/release pressure and it’s patented ‘no gap’ compression technology helps prevent fluid backflow to one-way valves in the veins and lymphatic vessels in the arms and legs. 

Normatec compression therapy features

  • Hand-held control unit that allows you to switch between attachments, pressure settings and set duration. 
  • 7 compression levels and adjustable “zone boost” settings (for extra time and pressure where it’s needed) 
  • 5 overlapping zones in the legs and 2 overlapping zones in the hips.

Benefits of Normatec compression therapy

So what are the advantages of compression therapy? The overall benefits of improved movement, circulation and muscle recovery can improve your quality of life in many areas.

Sport and fitness: 

Normatec compression therapy alleviates lactic acid and lymphatic fluid build up, allowing detoxification and fresh blood flow to muscles for accelerated recovery following physical exertion or an intense workout.

  • Faster muscle recovery
  • Maintain a competitive edge
  • Reduced muscle fatigue
  • Maximise training and performance
  • Increase blood flow
  • Reduce swelling and stiffness
  • Assist healing injury
  • Less downtime between workouts
  • Maintain full range of motion

Athletes incorporate Normatec compression therapy into their routine to train and perform better at their optimum, in turn feeling the reward and satisfaction of achieving their fitness goals. It can be used to warm up before a workout, or afterwards (post work-out).

Define and slim your target areas! Normatec compression therapy may also complement weight loss strategies by assisting removal of mobilised fat to be detoxified through the liver.

Wider benefits and medical conditions

Normatec compression therapy promotes healing and easing of pain and inflammation. Specifically it is known to:

  • Reduce inflammation and fluid retention
  • Improve circulation (and reduce the risk of blood clots)
  • Provide relief from pain
  • Strengthen skin and wound healing
  • Clear blockages and toxins
  • Decrease pain sensitivity
  • Stress relief and better sleep
  • Increase range of motion and flexibility 
  • Relieve body aches and stiffness

Normatec compression therapy can be helpful and revitalising for people who sit for long periods and may  help prevent cellulite, varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis. It may assist in the management and treatment of many medical conditions associated with circulation, pain and fatigue such as edema, arthritis, lymphedema, plantar fasciitis, orthostatic hypotension, chronic venous insufficiency and more. 

Recovery Room with compression therapy

Enjoy your next Normatec compression therapy session in our Recovery Room, a private treatment room at our clinic in Cranbourne West. When you book the Recovery Room you get full access to all equipment within the room – including our Normatec compression garments:

  • Leg attachments (coverage for feet, ankles, calves and thighs) – sometimes called ‘boots’
  • Hip attachments (coverage for low back, hips and upper thighs)
  • Arm attachments (coverage for shoulders, arms and hands) 

There’s also an infrared sauna (2-person), massage gun, foam roller and stretching area!

You can book the Recovery Room for your own private session, or bring a friend with you. The room is available for (maximum) two people at a time. If you book the room for yourself it is yours exclusively (you will never be in there with a stranger).

Regular ongoing bookings are available. Book online at That Myo You Know.

Using our Normatec compression therapy

At Melbourne Muscle Medics you’re surrounded by experts! If you need us, our qualified practitioners are here to help with correct operation of the equipment (so you can feel assured that you are doing things right) and quality advice specific to your needs. We can help with:

  • Fitting and removing the Normatec garments
  • Pressure settings
  • Scheduling your sessions 
  • Customised routines

In fitness, Normatec compression therapy can be used to massage and warm up your muscles prior to a workout, or for recovery afterwards. It can be used by everybody – including in low-level everyday fitness and also high-level competition fitness (think triathlons!). 

To feel the benefits, we recommend consistent use as follows:

  • Pre-workout session: 10-20 minutes at medium intensity
  • Post-workout session (as soon as possible after training): 20-30 minutes at high intensity

So what does Normatec compression therapy feel like? When you switch on the garments you fill feel them pre-inflate (this is when they mould to your body shape). The compression then begins at the lowest point (i.e. your feet or your hands) and works its way up your limb in a ‘pulse and release’ cycle.

How much is a Recovery Room session? 

Visit our Recovery Room and get full access to our Normatec compression therapy garments and create your own customised recovery session.

If you’re a regular visitor, save money by grabbing a 5 or 10 pack pass! 

  • Single Session – $30 (bring a friend for $15)
  • 5 Pack Pass – $25 each ($125)
  • 10 Pack Pass – $20 each ($200)
  • Before/After Massage – $20 each

Any of our massage services are a great add-on before or after using the Recovery Room and we offer great combo options!

Frequently asked questions

When should I use Normatec compression therapy?

Use Normatec as soon as possible after training (within a few hours), as it helps clear the lactic acid and metabolites out of your muscles. 30 minutes is preferred by most for a post-workout session, however some like up to 60 minutes (this is personal preference and either is safe). 

What should I wear?

Light clothing. A short sleeve shirt and shorts or leggings are best.  Jeans or bulky clothes are not recommended.

Can I break up my recovery session? 

We are happy to break up the 1-hour Recovery Room session if scheduling allows (for example 2 x 30-minute bursts). Let us know what you have in mind and we can help you design your perfect session.

Here is a combination we recommend:

  • 30 minutes Normatec compression therapy
  • 1 hour massage
  • 30 minutes infrared sauna 

When shouldn’t I use Normatec compression therapy?

Normatec compression therapy is safe and complications are rare, however you should avoid using it if you have:

  • A skin condition causing irritable or fragile skin
  • Open wounds/sores
  • Limb size or shape that prevents the garments fitting correctly
  • Poor or lack of sensation in your limbs

If you have a significant health condition or you are on prescription medication, you should always consult your medical practitioner.
