Cooling Technology That Accelerates Recovery
Game Ready is a therapy system that combines cold therapy with active compression to help reduce pain and swelling after injury or surgery. It’s more advanced than traditional ice packs and is used by professional athletes, surgical patients, and anyone looking to recover smarter and faster.
At Total Motion Physical Therapy, Game Ready is an optional add-on that we use in Christiansburg, Blacksburg and Radford, VA to enhance recovery and support your healing between therapy sessions.
Who Can Benefit from Game Ready?
Game Ready is especially effective in the first few days or weeks following surgery or acute injury. It helps manage inflammation and supports tissue healing without the use of medication.
We use Game Ready in Christiansburg, Blacksburg and Radford, VA to support recovery after:
- Joint replacement or orthopedic surgery
- ACL or ligament repairs
- Fractures or sprains
- Sports injuries
- Shoulder, ankle, or knee surgeries
- Acute muscle strains or trauma
How Game Ready Works for You
The Game Ready system uses an anatomical wrap that fits around the injured body part. It circulates cold water through the wrap while applying adjustable pneumatic pressure. This combination helps flush excess fluid, decrease tissue temperature, and limit swelling.
The system mimics natural muscle contractions, which supports better circulation and faster healing.
