MUELLER SPORTS MEDICINE OFFERS NEXT GENERATION OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPRESSION THERAPY FOR BOTH CONSUMERS AND ATHLETES WITH REVIVE™

PRAIRIE DU SAC, Wis. , June 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Mueller Sports Medicine, a trusted leader in sports medicine for more than 60 years, has partnered with Mego Afek, a pioneer with over 40 years of experience in sequential compression therapy, to offer athletes and consumers a treatment for improved circulation and recovery.

REVIVE^™, our newest offering in the Mueller^® Recovery Care^® line, is a rechargeable, portable, pneumatic compression device used to gently massage muscle tissues to promote lymphatic uptake, thereby removing inflammatory byproducts associated with hard workouts, extended periods of standing or sitting, and swelling.

REVIVE^™ offers true and customizable graduated compression through overlapping chambers with highly controlled pressure throughout the treated area. The devices are backed by world-recognized clinical studies showing effective movement of lymphatic fluid and increased circulation during treatment¹.

"As athletes and athletic trainers want faster and more controlled recovery, they should be looking to Mueller^® Recovery Care^® REVIVE^™ devices," said John Cayer, President of Mueller Sports Medicine. "REVIVE^™ offers 40 years of technical expertise, the most cycles, and longest battery life."

REVIVE^™ is offered in two models: the M4 pneumatic pump console will offer Bluetooth connection and full customizability for treatment times and pressures, and the M2 will offer elegant simplicity while still allowing control of treatment time and compression. Both M4 and M2 models are registered and approved by the FDA as a class II medical device.  REVIVE^™ M4 and M2 models have industry-leading batteries with up to 8 hours of use per charge, so it can easily be used while traveling.

The garments are made of materials that are easy to clean and biocompatible. Each console will include two leg garments. Arm, half vest with arm, calf boots, full pants, and core garments will also be available. Arm and leg garments are bilateral, so "left" and "right" purchases don't need to be made.

REVIVE^™ will be available in the USA starting August 1, 2022, found through your local Mueller Sports Medicine representative, by calling Mueller directly at 1-800-356-9522, online at muellersportsmed.com, or Amazon.
