Rapid Recover is South Africa’s most loved recovery brand.
Founded by the directors of 32Gi, Rapid Recover has spent the last three years becoming South Africa’s most loved recovery brand. By having a deep knowledge of the recovery industry understanding of what works for athletes we became the brand of choice.
We developed relationships with comrades champions, professional footballers, triathletes, and many other athletes across a variety of disciplines. Our devices are used in expos, on the sides of sports fields, in the massage tents at the Cape Epic and dozens of other national events, in medical practitioners’ rooms, and in the comfort of one’s own home. Modern-day athletes spend their time between training and their jobs- it is more difficult for them to find the time to recover. Creating times for sport massage appointments are almost impossible and expensive so the opportunity for them to recover at home is rife.
We created a South African brand, offering product that is of the highest quality, class leading 4 year warrantee and best price relative to features, backed by a passion driven team:
-Athletes stand in line for over an hour to use our devices at expo’s
-Pro athletes reaching out to use our devices for major events and competitions
-Chiropractors, physios, Bios and other medical practitioners recommending us to patients
Exercise Recovery
Exercise recovery has become one of the key factors in sports performance. An athlete’s ability to recover faster post exercise allows him to incorporate more quality sessions into his or her training regime. Its well known that the best way for the body to heal itself is to ensure good blood circulation and it has been demonstrated that active recovery methods are advantageous in speeding up the healing process.Rapid Recover’s advanced intermittent compression technology aids improved blood circulation, removal of inflammatory fluids as well as flushing the build-up of blood lactate.Noticeable attributes of regular use of Rapid Recover include:- Reduced onset of muscle stiffness post exercise- Decreased time for muscle repair post exercise- Improved blood lactate removal- Improved flexibility and movement due to a reduction in inflammation
REHABILITATION
The human body has a natural response to healing itself when sustaining an injury.The RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) method has been used for many years in order to reduce inflammation and allow sufficient rest to allow the body to heal.Its no secret that damaged cells need oxygen to repair themselves and multiply and so the fastest way to actually speed up healing is to get enriched oxygenated blood to the areas of the body that require healing. Generally this is only used immediately post injury during the acute phase of inflammation. By reducing the inflammation in the limb, you will improve range of motion, improve comfort levels and allow the area to heal quicker.
Medical
Rapid Recover is a mild external compression system which can be used to treat a variety of medical conditions mainly symptomatic of poor blood circulation or immobility
Poor Blood Ciculation
There are several causes of poor blood circulation often illness or injury related. Where blood flow is restricted it can give rise to discomfort, pain and swelling. Rapid Recover can be used to treat circulatory disorders by improving venous flow.
Lymphedema
Lymphedema is a condition that results from impaired flow of the lymphatic system. When the lymph vessels are blocked or unable to carry lymph fluid away from the tissues, localized swelling (lymphedema) will occur. Lymphedema most often affects a single arm or leg, but in some situations both limbs are affected. Symptoms of lymphedema include swelling in one or more extremities. The swelling may range from mild to severe and disfiguring. Breast cancer treatment is the most common cause of lymphedema in the U.S.While there is no cure for lymphedema, compression treatments can reduce the swelling significantly. Rapid Recover compression can be used to aid fluid removal in the limbs and give you a better quality of life.
DVT Prevention
Deep vein thrombosis is caused by the clotting of blood in the veins of the body and it can be fatal. There are a few causes of DVT of which vein damage is one of them. Rapid Recover can be used as a preventive measure against deep vein thrombosis.
