Why are Athletes traveling to Legacy Clinic

    The world's best athletes push their bodies to their limits and need the next level of recovery to perform at their best. Athletes like Jordan Spieth get their recovery by using NormaTec Recovery Systems now offered at Legacy Clinic. 

"Training only takes you so far, recovery optimizes your efforts." 



Active Compression Therapy is now offered at Legacy Clinic of Chiropractic. Active Compression Therapy does more than just relieve the symptoms of stress to the muscular system; it tackles the causes of muscle soreness, and its accompanying impact on performance, right at the source. 

The NormaTec Recovery Systems is a dynamic compression device designed for speedy recovery and rehab of injured muscles.  
Normatec increases venous return, rapidly accelerating the body's reabsorption of the elements causing soreness and fatigue in the muscle.  
Removes metabolic waste faster than any traditional mode of recovery or rest alone. 

Speed up your body’s own natural means of recovery and quickly climb back to your peak performance levels with the only technology that addresses muscle pain at its source. 

Benefits: 
Lymphatic drainage 
Tight Muscles 
Muscle soreness 
Sprain/Strains 
Muscle pain, tenderness, soreness 

Pre-Training 
Use the Normatec before training or competition for 15-20 minutes to get blood moving and begin to dilate the vascular system. The effect is very similar to a warm-up jog but can be done at rest, without wasting valuable energy stores.  

Rehabilitate Athletes Post-Injury/Surgery 
Removing inflammation before starting treatment helps to relax the muscle and increase circulation. This rids the limb of inflammation in the muscle, joint and surrounding tissue.  The following are just two of many studies that support this approach to recovery: 

The technology utilized by NORMATEC is based on some of the latest clinical studies on muscle physiology and sports injury recovery.

Gear for Goals is a unique program designed to align the need for sport and equipment with the children who require the most attention and resource.

This equipment will be personally donated by us during our 6th Annual Legacy Clinic Staff Mission Trip which will be taking place this fall in Dominican Republic and Haiti.

Prevention Is Best

It is much better to prevent disease from happening in the first place than try to treat it once it occurs.
