HOW DOES GAME READY WORK?

 
 

RELAX + RECOVER WITH US OR IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME

Our Game Ready Pro® 2.1 cold and compression system can help reduce the use of opioid medications, decrease pain and swelling, increase post-operative range of motion, and increase satisfaction with the recovery process. 

COLD AND COMPRESSION THERAPY

Cold therapy (cryotherapy) promotes vasoconstriction and reduces blood flow, reduces inflammation and edema (swelling), decreases muscle spasms, decreases metabolic demand, and can help relieve pain without narcotics. Cold therapy can be used immediately following acute injury or surgery and as needed thereafter.

ACTIVE CRYOTHERAPY

  • Rapidly circulating ice water continuously, consistently, and comfortably cools the affected site to effectively reduce edema (swelling), muscle spasms, and pain. INTERMITTENT COMPRESSION

  • Pneumatic compression mimics natural muscle contractions to gently pump away edema and stimulate the flow of oxygenated blood.

CIRCUMFERENTIAL COVERAGE

  • Anatomically designed wraps surround the affected body part, increasing surface area and contact for more effective cryotherapy. FASTER, DEEPER COOLING

  • Faster, deeper, longer-lasting cooling means safer treatments, with minimized frostbite risk and proven reductions in the use of opioid pain medications.

HOW IT WORKS:

Whether you are a post-op surgical patient or an athlete with a sports injury, Game Ready gets you back into action as soon as possible. 

This amazing device is now the injury and surgery recovery technology of choice for thousands of leading orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, and athletic trainers, as well as countless patients, elite athletes, professional sports teams, and special military forces around the world. 

Game Ready uses a combination of cold and compression therapy. This allows you to reduce swelling & pain without narcotics or pain medication.

SECOND CRYOTHERAPY (COLD)

  • Reduces inflammation & swelling

  • Reduces metabolic activity & cellular demand for oxygen, reducing secondary tissue

    damage

  • Draws heat away from the injury site for more effective temperature reduction

COMPRESSION

  • Aids in the prevention of deem formation & removal of swelling

  • Mimics natural muscle contractions & “pumps” edema/swelling out of the injured area

    and reduces swelling

  • Optimizes lymphatic drainage

  • Increases blood flow & oxygen delivery

  • Stimulates tissue repair & encourages acceleration of the healing process

COLD + ACTIVE COMPRESSION THERAPY

  • Decreases pain and swelling.

  • Reduces patient opioid consumption and may allow for earlier discontinuation of opioid medications in certain patients.

  • Increased post-operative range of motion in ACL patients.

  • May increase patient satisfaction with the recovery process.

  • Relieves pain.

  • Reduces joint and muscle stiffness in certain patients.

HEAT THERAPY

  • Relieves pain.

  • Reduces joint and muscle stiffness in certain patients.

CONTRAST THERAPY

  • Increases blood flow to treatment site.

  • Decreases pain.

  • Decreases KOOS (Knee Injury & Osteoarthritis Outcome Score).

  • Helps alleviate signs and symptoms of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
