How does cold therapy heal injuries faster?
Cold therapy is universally used to minimize damage following injury and help athletes heal faster during injury rehabilitation. It has been proven to reduce pain, muscle spasms, tissue damage, and swelling.

Benefits include:

• Decreased pain.
• Decreased muscle spasms.
• Decreased tissue damage (cold puts your body's cells into a state of "hibernation", keeping them alive in the face of the oxygen shortage that accompanies injury rehabilitation).
• Decreased swelling (due to less tissue damage).

Game Ready offers several advantages over traditional cold therapy methods (e.g., ice packs):

• Form-fitting, flexible fabric wraps completely surround the affected area.
• Temperature can be adjusted, helping to reduce the chance of frostbite.
• Patented technology forces fluid into every part of the wrap and continuously cycles fluid throughout the wrap for even, consistent cooling.
• Comfortable and easy to use-without the pain and mess of ice packs.

Game Ready is an advanced application of the RICE principal (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation), the universally accepted procedure for treating acute sports injuries. When used properly, RICE reduces pain, muscle spasms, tissue damage, and swelling, ultimately allowing for quicker and better healing and injury recovery. Traditionally, ice (cold) and compression are the hardest parts of this regimen to effectively implement. That's where Game Ready comes in. Bottom line: Game Ready's more effective application of cold therapy helps you heal better faster

How does compression heal injuries faster?
Compression helps to minimize the swelling associated with athletic injuries. It also helps to resolve, or get rid of, swelling by squeezing the fluid that causes swelling out of the injured tissue.

• Minimizes swelling.
• Helps to eliminate swelling that's already occurred by "squeezing" excess fluid out of the affected area.

Game Ready provides cyclical compression, which has been shown to be clearly superior to the static compression offered by other products and traditional therapies such as elastic bandages and cold wraps. Cyclical compression is preferable to static compression as it more closely mirrors the muscle contractions that the body itself uses to force tissue debris out of the affected area. In addition, with cyclical compression there is no known danger of restricting the body's natural efforts to evacuate excess fluid.
