Product Using Instructions
Intended Use
The RecoveryTherm Hot & Cold Vibration Knee is intended to help alleviate pain, improve athletic performance, and enhance muscle recovery post-workout. While cooling, heating, and vibration offer unique therapeutic benefits, rapidly alternating between the three, known as contrast therapy, optimizes and increases blood flow to reduce pain and soreness.
Getting Started
Step 1: Put on your garment
- Find a comfortable position sitting down, with your legs either at a 90-degree angle or fully extended.
- Unbuckle the straps and extend the garment.
- To put the RecoveryTherm Hot & Cold Vibration Knee on, place the garment’s center open circle on your knee cap. The blue fans should be facing outwards, and the control panel should be resting on your thigh. Ensure that nothing is blocking the airflow to the blue fans.
- Secure the RecoveryTherm Hot & Cold Vibration Knee by buckling each strap. The straps should provide compression without being uncomfortable or painful. If standing up, readjust the top strap for increased compression. Add the extenders to the end of the straps when using the device for larger muscles.
- For additional support, attach the third strap (found inside the pouch in the carrying case). To attach, Velcro one of the sides using the rubber connectors that are to the right and left of the knee cap. Use the third strap in instances where further support is needed, for example, when standing or moving during treatment. The use of the third strap is optional and fully removable.
- For safe and optimal use, store your garment in a cool, dry location (below 78 degrees Fahrenheit/26 degrees Celsius) to protect the temperature of the metal plates.
Step 2: Use your Garment
- Insert the battery into the control panel. The Therabody logo should be facing outwards, with the charging port on the bottom. Battery insertion should be seamless and not forced.
- Press and hold the power button for two seconds.
- Select one of three treatment options (cold, hot, or contrast) using the respective mode buttons.
- Short press the snowflake button to use the cold treatment only. The blue fans will activate and deliver cold therapy.
- Vibration therapy can be used without hot, cold, or contrast therapy. Short press the vibration button once the device is turned on. Vibration can be added or customized at any point during your treatment; short press the vibration button to toggle between patterns (low intensity, high intensity, and wave).
- Depending on the selected mode, treatment times can vary between 12-18 minutes.
- To access the Pro Mode, short press the snowflake button three times.
