Muscle and sports recovery
After intense exercise, the muscle must clear its waste, replenish its reserves and repair itself. How pressotherapy fits into a recovery routine.
What happens after exercise
Exercise leaves lactate and other waste in the muscle, depletes part of the energy reserves and creates small lesions. The body clears this waste within the following hour, then repairs and strengthens the muscle over the following days. Muscle soreness often peaks two to three days after exercise.
The contribution of drainage technologies
Pressotherapy speeds up circulation in the legs, helps remove accumulated waste and fluids and decongests the tissues. Athletes describe lighter legs and a more comfortable recovery.
When to do the session?
As soon as possible after intense exercise gives the best result, according to the source. A session the next day is still useful to relieve muscle soreness. During periods of regular training, one to two sessions a week help maintain circulation.
A complete routine
Pressotherapy complements, without replacing, cooling down, stretching, hydration, nutrition and sleep. It can be combined with a massage or cold exposure.
