COMPRESSION THERAPY

What is Compression Therapy

At EmergeCryo in Lakeridge, Virginia, our Compression Therapy uses state-of-the-art pneumatic devices to apply controlled, graduated pressure to the limbs—helping to boost circulation, reduce water retention, and accelerate muscle recovery. This advanced recovery tool is especially beneficial for athletes and bodybuilders looking to improve lymphatic drainage, relieve swelling, and speed up post-training recovery.

Unlike standard garments, our compression systems are designed to mimic the natural flow of the lymphatic system, enhancing venous return and reducing fluid buildup in the muscles and joints. It’s also effective for managing symptoms related to lymphedema, DVT, and chronic fatigue from high-volume training.

According to a 2020 study in the Journal of Sports Sciences, intermittent pneumatic compression significantly reduces delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and enhances post-exercise recovery in trained athletes.

Whether you're prepping for a competition or recovering from an intense workout, EmergeCryo’s Compression Therapy is a proven solution to keep your body performing at its peak.
