In rehabilitation, in addition to the usual benefits of pressotherapy (relieves blood circulation problems: legs feeling heavy, oedemas, and lymphedemas, etc.), the GMOVE-SUIT also offers proprioceptive support by stimulating the baroreceptors (according to patients it feels like a brace).
Post-surgery using
When used after ACL surgery (pressure set at 90 mmHg), the patients being tested felt like they were being helped during exercise. After this, they describe their legs feeling light. There was no need to pause during exercises, which allowed them to work longer and at a higher intensity. Above 90 mmHg, exercise is more difficult and requires more effort. Without adding weight, the sensation that movement is harder falls more under the desire for muscular development. GMOVE-SUIT is an aide in early rehabilitation, when the patient is weakest, or it can enable faster recovery time during a break.
The second post-surgery priority is to decrease swelling due to active exertion and loading. The GMOVE-SUIT therefore enables faster loading. Yet loading is necessary for healing.
Third, the feelings of support and lightness that the GMOVE-SUIT provides allow the patient to take less breaks between each exercise. Rest time is shortened as drainage occurs during exercise.
TESTIMONIAL
“D+14 after ACL surgery, the patient’s stability and confidence were increased when compared to the same walking exercise performed the previous day without the GMOVE-SUIT”

4G – A method not only reserved for sport
Hypoxia is used more and more during training, but it is also found in rehabilitation centers. This allows patients to regain faster mobility thanks to muscle gain associated with strength gain. This technique allows patients to produce more effort, with less load, thanks to the “KAATSU effect”. The almost unlimited potential of the protocols made possible by the GMOVE-SUIT, in Gradient or in Occlusion, open up new training and treating possibilities for all, in an extremely more efficient way.
