Aerify compression boots and pants – what are they for and how can they help you?

Aerify recovery boots are air compression massage boots (also known as lymphatic drainage boots) with multiple chambers that inflate sequentially from ankle to groin to massage tired legs and muscles and help drain lymphatic fluid. Compression therapy is one of the latest trends and is used by professional athletes, amateurs and the general public.

Lymphatic drainage and external pneumatic compression (EPC) are not new technologies. Compression has been used in medical practice for decades to improve lymph flow, reduce swelling and improve various venous problems. The Aerify device has the necessary CE and Class IIa medical device certificates and it is registered as a medical device with the National Medicines Agency (NMA). The Aerify compression boots and pants are therefore ideal for people with the above mentioned health problems to improve their daily quality of life at the comfort of their homes.

Compression boots are comfortable to wear and the user can wear the boots while watching TV or reading a book while the compression massage treatment is taking place.

Compression therapy is not only cosmetic, but also curative and preventive. Compression massage involves mechanical massage with variable air pressure to improve circulation and lymph flow. Compression therapy therapy helps prevent swelling and helps muscles recover after intensive trainings.

Compression therapy improves blood circulation and lymph flow, and helps muscles recover after CrossFit, weightlifting, cycling, triathlon and football training. Improved circulation and lymph flow helps to remove metabolic by-products, such as lactic acid, more quickly and efficiently after exercise. Improved blood flow, rich in nutrients and oxygen, is exactly what is needed to restore muscles at peak performance.

 

The main advantages of the Aerify compression systems:

  • Improves circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid;
  • Reduces the risk of injuries and sprains;
  • Promotes muscle recovery after exercise;
  • Significantly improves athletic performance;
  • Reduces swelling and oedema;
  • Relieves heaviness in the legs;
  • Toxins are removed from the body by lymphatic drainage;
  • Prevents fatigue;
  • Cellulite reduction.

Why choose Aerify recovery products?

There are many brands around the world that offer similar products, but Aerify is the best choice not only because it is a unique Latvian brand. Firstly, Aerify is one of the few brands to offer an eight-chamber boots. Other products usually have four, five or six chambers.

Why are eight cameras better?

Because each pneumatic compression massage cycle has twice as many steps, making the treatment gentler and more effective; the eight-chamber system allows for more complex and personalised programmes that are not possible with four-chamber systems. Aerify product line includes not only pneumatic compression boots, but also compression pants, shorts, wrist and back belts. For example, the Aerify pants extend above the waist and provide an air pressure massage to the hips, buttocks and lower back that is only possible with an eight-chamber system. But not only that, Aerify equipment is more powerful, reaching up to 240 mmHg (equivalent to the pressure of a volleyball ball), while other brands only reach 110-150 mmHg.

Why such high pressure is needed?

For medical purposes this would not be necessary, but for athletes with thin legs, high muscle tone and very dense musculature, such as long-distance runners, 110 mmHg will probably not be enough.

How to use Aerify compression boots?

The Aerify compression massage system is suitable for anyone who wants to improve their health. It can be used by athletes, amateurs and the general public after a long day’s work. It can also be used for cosmetic purposes, such as cellulite reduction. The Aerify lymphatic drainage system has six programme modes.

Available modes for Aerify:

Aerify Standard has six different compression therapy regimes.

A, B, C and D are the basic recovery programmes:

  • Programme A: The One Wave programme is a massage that relieves daytime fatigue.
  • Programme B: Secquential Compression is ideal for lymphatic drainage and improving lactic acid recycling after sports.
  • Programme C: Double Wave Massage is an intensive muscle relaxing massage.

Programme D: “Full compression and release” stimulates all the chambers simultaneously and promotes rapid recovery.

Programmes E and F are a combination of the previous programmes.

Pressure level settings

Aerify Standard and Aerify LITE have eight pressure levels, while Aerify Charge has 16 pressure levels. Aerify Standard and Aerify LITE pressure levels are divided into levels from 30 mmHg to 240 mmHg, with 30 mmHg added to each additional level. For example, the first level is 30 mmHg, the sixth level is 180 mmHg and the highest is 8 whitch is 240 mmHg (equivalent to the air pressure in an inflated volleyball). The pressure required depends on the thickness of the leg (generally, the thinner the leg, the more pressure is needed), the degree of pressure resistance and personal feel. We recommend starting with moderate pressure, 3.-5. level (pressure 90-150 mmHg), and increase or decrease the pressure depending on the sensations. Enjoy the pleasant sensations during the treatment. If discomfort or pain occurs, the pressure should be reduced until it is comfortable.

Individual air chambers

Individual air chambers can be stopped and activated to avoid irritation of painful or sensitive areas. It is also possible to focus stimulation on specific areas of the body while other air chambers are deactivated. When the compression system is switched on, all air chambers are activated and filled with air. To deactivate a specific air camera, press the number on the device before starting the programme responsible for that camera. The air camera can be reactivated by stopping the programme and restarting the programme by pressing the air camera number. This allows you to experiment with different combinations of air chambers to find the compression therapy setting that suits your needs the best.

Time settings

All three Aerify recovery systems – Aerify Standard, Aerify Charge and Aerify Light – offer a choice of treatment durations from 1 to 99 minutes. For recovery, it is recommended to choose one 30-minute treatment session per day. However, if you want to use the system for longer, you can extend the procedure time to 99 minutes. The treatments can also be used to warm up your muscles before a workout. The warm-up can start with 15 minutes. After the workout, recovery treatments can be longer, up to 50-60 minutes. There is no limit to the number or duration of treatments, as long as they are enjoyable.
