4. Indications for Use
The RecoveryPump®powered inflatable tube massager is indicated for the
temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains, and for temporary increase
in circulation to the treated areas in people who are in good health. The
RecoveryPump®simulates kneading and stroking of tissues by using an
inflatable garment.
5. About RecoveryPump®
RecoveryPump®is a massage system intended for use by people in good
health. As noted above, RecoveryPump®simulates the kneading and stroking
action of manual massage by use of an inflatable garment that fills and
deflates, applying a directional compress-and-release massage. This soothing
massage action temporarily increases circulation in the areas to which the
garment is applied, and temporarily relieves muscle aches and pain caused by
fatigue or overexertion.
The RecoveryPump®Massage Cycle
The RecoveryPump®console takes air from the room environment and sends
it through hoses into four individual air chambers inside the RecoveryPump®
garment.
The air chambers in the RecoveryPump®garment are specially designed to
overlap each other, for fluent, comfortable massage, without gaps. You can
adjust the pressure level of the massage, treatment time, hold time, and the
pause time in between inflation cycles.
The RecoveryPump®console can operate one or two garments
simultaneously, so you can use it on both your legs, arms, or hips at the
same time, for a relaxing massage.
RecoveryPump®has six different treatment programs:
•Recovery (Sequential cycle mode)
•Pre-Train (Sequential cycle mode)
•Rehab (ISO - Isolation cycle mode)
•Three Custom Programs (Sequential or ISO cycle mode)
These programs are described in the following sections.
L98005H1R-A 5

RecoveryPump®Model 737R (RPX) User Manual
The Recovery and Pre-Train Programs
The Recovery and Pre-Train programs use the Sequential cycle mode that
applies a directional massage, starting at the base of the treated area, and
progresses upwards towards the torso and then releases (see Figure 1).
This applies a deep, slow massage.
•The Recovery program is recommended for use after a workout.
•The Pre-Train program is recommended for use before a workout.
Figure 1 - Sequential Cycle Mode
6 L98005H1R-A

RecoveryPump®Model 737R (RPX) User Manual
The Rehab Program
The Rehab program uses the ISO cycle mode that applies a directional
massage to a smaller area. Only two adjacent cells in the garment are
inflated. The first cell inflates, and after a few seconds, the second cell starts
to inflate until both cells reach the set pressure. Then both cells deflate, and
after a pause the process starts again (see Figure 2).
The user can select the pair of cells to be inflated (1 & 2, 2 & 3, or 3 & 4)

6. Components of the RecoveryPump®System
The RecoveryPump®Console
(See Figure 3 - a)
The console takes air from the room environment, and sends it to the
individual air chambers in the garment in a sequence that starts from the
base of the garment and continues to the top, according to the selected
mode. The console then vents the air from the garments, there is a brief
pause, and the massage cycle repeats.
The RecoveryPump®console is powered by either DC power adapter or by a
rechargeable battery pack inside the console. The battery pack can be
charged while the console is operated by electricity. The following table
illustrates the battery pack power capacity displayed by the status indicators.
Note:
•Turn On the Main Switch to enable charging the console.
•Turn Off the Main Switch to conserve battery power
when not charging
or not using the console.
Battery Pack Status Available Power
75% to 100% power
50% to 75% power remaining
25% to 50% power remaining
5% to 25% power remaining
Battery empty
Hose Bundle
The hose bundle transfers the air from the console to the garments.
The RecoveryCore™ garment is provided with two hose bundles. Each hose
bundle has a female connector that attaches to the connector on the garment,
and a prong connector that attaches to the console (see Figure 3 - b).
The RecoveryBoots®and RecoveryArms®garments have built-in hose bundles.

Step 1: Set up the RecoveryPump®Console
Place the console on a flat stable surface from where it will not slip or fall.
The front of the console must be at least six inches from the edge of the
surface. Position the console so that the patient can easily reach the controls
during treatment.
Plug the DC power adapter cable into the DC adapter socket on the console,
and then plug the power cord into an appropriate 115-Volt wall outlet.
Step 2: Dress Appropriately
•Always wear light clothing underneath the garment, for hygienic reasons,
to avoid irritation and to absorb perspiration.
•Do not wear the garment directly over bare skin.
•Clothing should be unrestrictive and absorbent, and free of zippers,
buttons or other items that could rub and chafe under the massage.
•We recommend wearing cotton clothes, such as sweatpants or leggings
along with cotton socks underneath the RecoveryBoots®leg garment or
RecoveryCore™ garment, or a long sleeve t-shirt under the
RecoveryArms®arm garment.
Step 3: Put on the Garment
Leg Garment
a. Zip the leg garment closed at least part of the way up before inserting
your leg.
b. Insert your foot into the garment (see Figure 5). Pull the top of the garment
towards your torso, extending the garment to its maximum length.
c. Close the zipper all the way up.
d. Repeat for other leg, if desired. The RecoveryBoots®leg garment is
designed to fit on either the right or left leg.
