Game Ready

One of the devices that has recently found wide application in physical medicine and rehabilitation is the Game Ready.

Game Ready is used to reduce pain, reduce swelling, reduce blood flow to deeper tissues where bleeding may already be present, and compression further helps with fluid control and limiting pain in the injured area, leading to prolonged analgesic effect, significant increase range of motion, all together to faster tissue regeneration and faster recovery in general.

The use of cold compression is not a new method (on the contrary, it has been present for centuries), but the great importance of this device is based primarily on controlled flow and compression, which actually helps the physiotherapist to achieve the ideal therapeutic effect in a short time.

Game ready system is currently one of the most commonly used methods for recovery from injuries and rehabilitation after surgical interventions for thousands of leading orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and sports doctors.




HOW DOES THE SYSTEM WORK?


ACTIVE CRYOTHERAPY

The rapidly circulating ice water continuously and pleasantly cools the affected area in order to effectively reduce edema (swelling), muscle cramps, and pain.

CONTROLLED COMPRESSION

Pneumatic compression mimics natural muscle contractions to reduce edema and stimulate oxygen-rich blood flow.

ANATOMICAL COVERAGE

Anatomically designed cuffs surround the affected part of the body, increasing the area and contact for more effective cryotherapy.

FASTER, DEEPER COOLING

Faster, deeper, longer-lasting cooling also means safer treatments, with a minimized risk of frostbite and a proven reduction in the use of painkillers.

“This type of therapy is the best response to an acute injury because it reduces swelling and pain”

THERAPEUTIC BENEFITS OF GAME READY:

  • More effective than static compression

  • It mimics natural muscle contractions by "pumping" edema out of injured tissue, which prevents tissue damage and encourages an accelerated recovery process

  • Stimulates tissue recovery

  • Increases the flow of blood and oxygen to the site of injury

  • Optimizes lymphatic drainage

  • There is no possibility of frostbite

  • Reduces the need to take oral analgesics

  • It enables quick recovery and return to daily activities


This device is the first in the history of sports medicine in the field of injury recovery, which simultaneously provides active pneumatic compression and individually adjustable cryotherapy. Game Ready is a treatment chosen by athletic coaches, physical therapy centers, athletes and teams in almost every professional sport.

Game Ready provides double action, by adjusting the temperature while the device is designed to allow simultaneous circulation of cold water and air, integrating compression and cryotherapy. Active compression helps the body and reduces swelling while at the same time stimulating the flow of oxygen-rich blood. Efficient and even cooling reduces muscle pain and cramps. Game Ready wraps are easy to apply and use. The design of the device provides comfort in use. Game Ready pads are individually designed for the shoulder girdle, elbow, back, arm, back, hips, groin, knees, as well as special wrist injuries.
