Recovery boots

What are recovery boots?
Recovery boots are air cushions that are placed around the legs and inflate and deflate in a calm, pulsating rhythm from the foot upwards. It resembles a deep, relaxing massage and is called pneumatic compression. The treatment is widely used by both exercisers and athletes as part of recovery.

What can you get out of it?
Many people experience lighter and fresher legs after a session. The treatment can be used for:

  • Recovery after running, cycling, strength training and team sports
  • Tired and heavy legs after a day of standing or sitting very still
  • Relaxation and calm in the body

How it works
You lie down comfortably and the boots are put on over your clothes or bare legs. You decide the pressure yourself so that it feels comfortable. The boots do the rest. You can relax, listen to music or just close your eyes.

30 or 60 minutes?
Choose 30 minutes if you want a quick recovery after training or an extra breath in your everyday life. Choose 60 minutes if you need more peace and a deeper, more thorough treatment.

Combine with massage
Recovery boots go well with a sports massage or regular massage. Ask the clinic if you would like to put together a course.
