Compression Therapy

Pneumatic compression flushes your legs after hard training — the kind of recovery pros use that’s finally affordable for the rest of us. This category covers compression boots and sleeves: how the pressure zones and cycles differ, what separates a $200 set from a $1,000 Normatec, battery vs plug-in, and whether calf-only sleeves are enough for your needs. We focus on real-world feel and durability over marketing. Browse the comparisons to see how the main systems stack up, then dig into the reviews.
