Normatec Compression Therapy
Recover Faster With Normatec Compression Therapy
Normatec compression therapy is a non-invasive way to enhance recovery, relieve muscle soreness and fatigue, and promote healing. Normatec utilizes a system of compression boots or sleeves that apply various levels of intermittent pneumatic pressure to different areas of the body, such as the legs, arms, or hips. This convenient compression therapy is utilized by professional and amateur athletes for sports recovery and by physical or occupational therapists for rehabilitation and recovery from injuries and surgery.
How Compression Therapy Works
Pneumatic Compression: Normatec uses a sequential pneumatic compression technique through various overlapping zones. This means the boot or sleeve inflates and deflates in a specific pattern that has been designed to stimulate circulation and aid in fluid movement.
Dynamic Gradient Technology: The therapy utilizes a patented dynamic gradient technology that applies pressure in a gradient manner, starting from the farthest end of the limbs and progressing towards your body. This sequential gradient pressure helps enhance circulation and lymphatic flow.
What Compression Therapy Does
- Enhanced Recovery: Normatec compression therapy improves recovery by reducing muscle soreness, swelling, and inflammation associated with injury or surgery. The rhythmic compression and decompression helps with metabolic waste product removal, such as lactic acid, from the muscles, which can lead to quicker recovery times.
- Increased Circulation: The intermittent pressure applied by the Normatec compression system is designed to help improve blood circulation, which can enhance the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and surrounding tissues. This increased blood flow can help aid in tissue repair and regeneration, further improving your recovery.
- Lymphatic System Support: Normatec sequential compression therapy assists the lymphatic system in removing any excess fluid and toxins from the body. The sequential compression action mimics the natural movement and circulation of the lymphatic system, helping to reduce any swelling or edema that may be causing inflammation and pain.
What Makes Normatec Compression Therapy Better
Customizable Sessions: Normatec devices have been continuously refined and improved since conception. Their system offers adjustable settings, allowing users to control the intensity, duration, and pattern of compression. This customization allows our trained providers to personalize treatment based on individual patient needs and comfort levels.
Versatile Applications: While Normatec may be popular among athletes for post-workout recovery or sports related injuries, it is also utilized in various medical settings. It has been found to be beneficial for people with conditions such as lymphedema, venous insufficiency, peripheral artery disease, and post-surgical swelling. The experienced providers at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness Matawan and Marlboro, NJ locations will provide a personalized consultation to see how Normatec compression therapy can help you get better faster.
How We Use Normatec Compression Therapy
- Sports Recovery: The team at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness knows the importance of optimizing sports recovery. Our experienced providers integrate Normatec compression therapy into recovery protocols and programs for athletes. Normatec compression is incorporated as just one part of a tailored recovery plan, ensuring faster sports recovery times and improved athletic performance.
- Physical Therapy: Our comprehensive physical therapy services facilitate rehabilitation after orthopedic injuries or surgeries. The non-invasive Normatec compression therapy is regularly integrated into patient treatment plans. Under the guidance of skilled physical therapists, patients benefit from reduced swelling and inflammation, enhanced healing, and improved range of motion and mobility to speed up your recovery.
- Occupational Therapy: Mobility issues related to joint and extremity pain or injuries can drastically reduce your quality of life. Normatec compression therapy is incorporated into occupational therapy sessions to help alleviate any of these symptoms. Improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, and aiding in muscle recovery, compression therapy helps improve your mobility so you can regain your quality of life.
- Joint Pain Management: Joint pain can decrease mobility, functionality, and be debilitating to your job and life. NJ Sports Spine & Wellness routinely uses Normatec compression therapy as an effective solution in our joint pain management portfolio. By increasing circulation and reducing swelling, this therapy helps alleviate pain associated with conditions like arthritis, tendinitis, or certain types of post-surgical recovery.

Patient Testimonials
I had my first visit yesterday at this facility. From the moment I entered the girls at the desk greeted me and were so friendly. Then I consulted with Dr Jeff who took the time for me to explain my condition. After that I worked with Marianne who evaluated me . After I finished Dr Jeff read my MRI & my condition was explained to me in further detail. I ended my session with Dr Jeff. I feel confident that I am in the best hands with these outstanding, knowledgeable, caring professionals. Thank you to all of you! Five stars are not enough!
Roseann Nemoy
I just wrapped up 24 sessions with the team at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness - Matawan for lower back and TMJ pain. The whole team there is dedicated on getting you back to feeling your old self. My therapy included decompression, physical therapy, and Chiropractic work. Dr. Jordan - who worked on my TMJ - was very friendly and informative. Dr. Mayra - my chiropractor - was very caring, helpful and efficient. Everyone there took the time to address my needs and answer any questions I had. Also, the facility is very modern, clean and has the latest technologies. I am feeling much better after my time with the team. Would definitely recommend NJ Sports Spine & Wellness!
Joseph Li
I went into NJ Sports, Spine, and Wellness in excruciating pain, desperate for relief. The front desk crew are amazing, efficient, and empathetic. They got me in urgently and I started treatment with Dr. Tony Abregio. He spent considerable time with me assessing my condition. He advised me to follow up with an orthopedic doctor, and he ordered imaging. When my insurance company denied the CT he went to bat for me, and went above and beyond to get the test approved. Dr. Abregio is highly skilled in hands on modalities. He incorporates massage, stretching, and adjustments to bring relief. He listens and after clinically evaluating, he formulates a treatment plan. The crew on the floor are wonderful, Mariah, Claudette, Julien, and everyone on the team work with you and give you encouragement along with therapy. When you hurt and can’t get a break from the pain, you find respite here. Ultimately I am feeling much better. If you have chronic pain or you get injured, NJ Sports and Spine will get you better. Thank you to the whole team!

Alyssa is the professional I have been seeing and she has been a great help for my progress through my rotator cuff surgery. NJ Sports are very professional and I reccomend them for anyone who is recovering from procedures like mine. The pain has been tough but Alyssa is there every step of the way. See Alyssa, she is the best!
Sharon De Man
I have been going to physical and occupational therapy, as well as chiropractic services at the Matawan location of NJ spine and Wellness for the last three years and I am beyond satisfied and so very thankful for their services offered. I am currently seeing Matthew Mondoro for chiropractic services and Alyssa Bark for occupational therapy and they are both life savers.
The techs that assist with my workout routine on the fitness floor go above and beyond to make sure I know how to do each exercise with proper form. I recently started their acupuncture services which are located right across the street and I am also very pleased with Yunshen Wang. I am so very appreciative to this facility, and last but not least, thank you to the reception and scheduling staff members for fitting me in and making last minute chsnges whenever necessary.

Shyam Patel
My experience so far with the rehab team has been incredible. OT Alyssa is the primary therapist I have seen and she is phenomenal at what she does. I appreciate her intentionality with my treatment when we meet 1-on-1. She makes sure to ask how I’m doing and checks in with my progress. I highly recommend Alyssa; she is the perfect balance of personable/caring and knowledgeable. The exercises provided to me are challenging but are effective to my healing process. Techs David, Zaire and Liam are the best! They are attentive when helping me with the exercises assigned to me and go above and beyond to make sure my experience (and that of other patients around me) is as enjoyable as possible in spite of the physical challenges.

I’ve had an amazing experience at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness! I spent a lot of time researching the perfect place for PT after knee surgery, and I'm glad I came here. The staff is friendly and supportive. Katelynn is a fantastic OT who doesn't rush her patients and has worked wonders on my knee since surgery. Liam is incredibly knowledgeable about ACL surgery recovery and tailors the sessions to my needs. Everyone here pushes me to improve and always makes sure I’m comfortable every step of the way. Everyone is awesome, but I'm glad I get to work with Tori, Alyssa, Agnes, Kat, and Tavis often. I highly recommend NJSS&W for anyone looking for personalized, thoughtful care!
