Compression

Pre Compression:

Pre compression and stretching are crucial components of any effective workout routine. Pre compression involves applying gentle pressure to the muscles before exercising, which helps increase blood flow and oxygen delivery. This can enhance performance and reduce the risk of injury during a workout.

Stretching, on the other hand, helps improve flexibility and range of motion in the muscles and joints. It is essential to stretch both before and after a workout to warm up the muscles and prevent stiffness.

By incorporating pre compression and stretching into your exercise regimen, you can prepare your body for physical activity, improve your overall performance, and reduce the likelihood of injuries.

Post Compression:

After completing a session of compression therapy and stretching, it is important to allow your body time to recover and reap the full benefits of the treatment. Compression therapy helps increase blood flow, reduce muscle soreness, and speed up the recovery process by aiding in the removal of waste products from the muscles.

Stretching, on the other hand, helps improve flexibility, range of motion, and muscle function. It is essential to hold each stretch for at least 15-30 seconds to allow the muscles to fully relax and lengthen.

Remember to drink plenty of water post-treatment to help flush out toxins released during the session and aid in muscle recovery. Incorporating these practices into your routine regularly can help improve overall wellness and enhance your body's natural healing abilities.
