Feature Callouts

RecoveryAir PRO Programs

About negative gradient for all programs:
The RecoveryAir PRO’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

• 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 a 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.

Isolation preset program

The Isolation program is recommended when needing to treat a specific, isolated area of your choosing.

Isolation inflation cycle (ISO)
The Isolation program provides targeted compression to a selected zone.

• A directional massage is applied to a smaller, isolated area.
• Inflation starts with the front chamber.
• The next chamber starts to inflate after a few seconds.
• Until both chambers reach the set pressure and deflate at the same time, the cycle will start again after a short pause (see Figure 2).

Isolated Areas:

• Full Distal Zone – Chamber 1, 2, & 3
• Distal Zone – Chamber 1 & 2
• Mid Zone – Chamber 2 & 3
• Proximal Zone – Chamber 3 & 4
• Full Proximal Zone – Chamber 2,3, & 4

RecoveryAir PRO Programs

Interval preset program
The Interval program allows for a cycle to turn on and then off in a sequential selected amount of time.

• A directional massage is applied with a sequential cycle, and alternates between intervals of being under treatment (Time On) and no treatment (Time Off).
• Start by selecting the Time On (in minutes), the Time Off (in minutes), and the total Interval program time (in hours).
• The treatment begins with the selected Time On, and after this treatment is completed, the pump pauses for the selected amount of Time Off, and then back to the selected Time On.
• This Time On/Time Off interval continues automatically until the total treatment time is completed (up to 8 hours).

PRO Mode (Custom)

The PRO Mode allows you to create a fully customized program that’s unique to you.

• You can use the Pretreatment program or you can choose from four inflation cycles: Sequential, Isolation, Wave, or Flow.
• During your treatment, you can change the treatment parameters, but you can’t change the selected inflation cycle and can’t turn the pre-selected program ON/OFF.

Pretreatment (See Figure 3)

• Pretreatment treats the proximal areas first.
• A specific pattern is applied, and the duration varies according to garment size (5–12 minutes) with a preselected pressure of 30 mmHg in all chambers that cannot be changed.
• Sequence 1 is carried out six times.
• Sequence 2 and Sequence 3 are carried out only once.

Sequential inflation cycle
Isolation inflation cycle

Wave inflation cycle

• The Wave inflation cycle starts at the base of the limb, over the foot.
• As one chamber inflates, the previous chamber starts deflating, so at any one time a small area is being compressed.
• For example: When chamber 2 is full, then chamber 1 starts to deflate, while chamber 3 starts to inflate, so for a moment, there are 2 chambers reaching the target pressure at the same time. (See Figure 4)

PRO Mode (Custom)

Flow inflation cycle

• Four sequences exist within the Flow inflation cycle. Each sequence is determined by the last chamber inflated.

• The Flow inflation cycle has an associated Frequency parameter, which determines the number of sequences within the cycle.

• You can set the Frequency to be between 1 and 8.

• The default Frequency setting is 2.
  Examples

• Frequency 1 – Each chamber inflation sequence happens once before continuing to next chamber sequence.

• Frequency 2 – Each chamber inflation sequence repeats twice before continuing to next chamber sequence .

• Frequency 8 – Each chamber inflation sequence repeats eight times before moving to the next chamber inflation.

Smart Features

The RecoveryAir PRO also connects to the Therabody app via Bluetooth, giving you total control of your RecoveryAir PRO session from the convenience of your smartphone.
Not only can you easily access options like individual chamber pressure, but you can create and share custom routines with your friends, clients, or patients directly from the app via text message or email.

Superior, hygienic design

The RecoveryAir PRO compression boots have non-porous medical grade material that helps prevent bacteria buildup and provides a resistant surface. Our internal overlapping chambers provide a smooth surface to clean, which means no wiping under chamber flaps where bacteria can build up. This also means no smells.

How to Clean
Here are simple steps to cleaning your RecoveryAir PRO compression boots:

1. Unzip the boots completely and lay them on a flat surface.
2. Take a disinfectant wipe or spray, and gently clean the inside of the boots. Avoid any oil based cleaning product.
3. Once you have cleaned your garment, make sure to fully dry the surface by hanging them up or wiping them down.
4. We also recommend you wipe down the exterior of the pump to reduce surface contaminants.

What it is and why it’s important:
We use medical-grade material covering the internal chamber to help reduce the potential for microbial growth and moisture retention. Whether you are an individual, or a clinic, our boots are designed to help limit the potential for bacterial transmission.

Traveling with your RecoveryAir PRO Compression System
When traveling with your RecoveryAir PRO Compression System, we recommend:

• Roll the hose tightly and slide it into the foot section of your garment. It is important to keep the hose from creasing to protect the hose’s integrity and its ability to properly distribute airflow.
• Once you secure the hose, simply fold your garment to fit into your travel bag or carry-on luggage.
• Secure your pump in the provided carrying pouch.

Charging the RecoveryAir PRO

1. After turning off the pump, plug the power adapter into the charging port of the RecoveryAir PRO pump.
2. You can continue to use the RecoveryAir PRO while charging.
3. Charging is complete when all 3 LED lights of the LED battery indicator are lit.
