RecoveryAir Prime Programs
About negative gradient for all programs:
The RecoveryAir Prime’s unique true negative gradient of pressure sequentially travels up the
limb from the foot toward the heart in four internal overlapping chambers. The spiraling overlap
of chambers safely maximizes circulation.
•
The pressure can be the same in two consecutive chambers, but the pump won’t allow a
back chamber to have a higher pressure than a front chamber.
•
The minimum pressure level of each chamber is 20 mmHg.
Recover and Warm-Up preset programs
•
Access the Recover and Warm-Up preset programs via the Therabody app.
•
The Recover program is the perfect go-to when experiencing fatigue, tension, or soreness
brought on by your everyday activities or post workout.
•
The Warm-Up program is recommended for use before workout.
•
The only difference between the two programs is the default pressure level and treatment
time.
Sequential inflation cycle
Both the Recovery and Warm-Up preset programs use the Sequential inflation cycle.
•
A directional massage is applied, starting at the base of the treated area, and progresses
upwards towards the torso and then releases. (see Figure 1)
•
Starting with Chamber 1, once the inflating chamber has reached its preset pressure level,
the pressure level for that chamber is held and the next chamber begins inflating.
