Recover faster, reduce pain, and improve circulation with our range of cold compression therapy machines and leg compression devices. Whether you’re an athlete, recovering from surgery, or managing chronic pain, these machines combine cold therapy and compression to deliver effective relief and speed up healing, all from the comfort of your home.
What is Cold Compression Therapy?
Cold compression therapy is a treatment that combines cold therapy (cryotherapy) with controlled compression to reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation. Unlike traditional ice packs, these machines maintain a consistent temperature and apply gentle pressure, making them more effective for recovery.
Benefits of Cold Compression Therapy
- Reduces pain and swelling after injuries or surgery
- Speeds up recovery by improving circulation
- Decreases inflammation for chronic conditions
- Provides comfort with consistent cooling and pressure
When to Use Cold Compression Therapy
- Post-surgery recovery (ACL, knee replacement)
- Sports injuries (sprains, strains)
- Chronic pain (arthritis, tendonitis)
- At-home rehabilitation
How Long Should You Do Cold Compression?
Most experts recommend 15–20 minutes per session, 2–3 times a day. Overuse can lead to skin damage or frostbite.
Can You Do Too Much Cold Therapy?
Yes. Prolonged exposure can cause nerve damage, frostbite, or reduced blood flow. Always follow recommended guidelines.
When NOT to Use Cold Compression
Avoid cold compression therapy if you have:
- Poor circulation or vascular disease
- Open wounds or skin infections
- Cold hypersensitivity Always consult your doctor before use.
Cold Compression Therapy at Home
Modern machines make it easy to enjoy hospital-grade therapy at home. Portable systems are lightweight, easy to use, and perfect for daily recovery.
How Does a Cold Compression Machine Work?
A cold compression machine circulates chilled water through a wrap that fits around the injured area (knee, shoulder, ankle, etc.). At the same time, it applies adjustable compression to reduce swelling and improve blood flow. Most systems include:
- Insulated reservoir for cold water
- Pump system for circulation
- Therapeutic wraps for targeted areas
How to Use a Cold Compression Machine
- Fill the reservoir with ice and water.
- Attach the wrap to the targeted area.
- Set the desired temperature and compression level.
- Use for 15–20 minutes per session, unless otherwise advised by your doctor.
Leg Compression Machines
Leg compression machines use air pressure to massage your legs, improve circulation, and reduce swelling. They’re commonly used:
- In hospitals to prevent blood clots
- At home for recovery and relaxation
- By athletes for faster muscle recovery
Benefits
- Improves blood flow
- Reduces swelling and fluid retention
- Helps with post-surgery recovery
Side Effects
- Mild discomfort if pressure is too high
- Not recommended for people with severe vascular issues
