Boots on, pressure set to you.
Normatec Compression Therapy in Carpentersville.
Compression boots that move blood and lymph through tired legs, so you feel less stiff and recover faster.
What It Is
Move the swelling out.
Normatec uses compression boots to speed up something your body already does. The compression increases blood flow to the muscle, which promotes cellular repair and protein production, and it stimulates lymphatic drainage to bring inflammation and swelling down.
It also mobilizes waste products like lactic acid, which is the part you feel most. Less stiffness, less soreness, more mobility, and legs that do not feel like they are made of concrete.
It is the easy part of your visit. You sit, the boots do the work, and it pairs well with training weeks and with post-surgical swelling that will not shift.

Questions, Answered
Compression therapy, answered.
No. It is firm, rhythmic pressure, closer to a strong squeeze than anything painful, and we set the pressure to what is comfortable for you. Most people find it the most relaxing part of the appointment.
No. Athletes use it between hard sessions, but it does as much for legs that are swollen after surgery, or heavy and tired from being on your feet all day. If swelling and stiffness are part of your problem, it is worth asking about.
Talk to us. It is designed to sit inside a treatment plan rather than replace one, because compression helps the symptom while the plan deals with the cause. Call us on (224) 858-5161 and we will tell you honestly whether it is the right thing for you.
