In the Spirit of Recovery

Cameron's Story

Cameron Cameron knows all about lymphedema. He was born with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome (KTW), which affects bone growth and veins as well as the lymphatic system. He struggled for years to control the swelling in his leg so he could pursue his life ambition - professional basketball. Cameron wears day-time compression stockings and in 2000 he added night-time JoViPaks to his very successful management regimen. He also knows a lot about sports injuries and through his experience and encouragement, JoViPak has re-introduced their line of sports wraps to both the lymphedema and the athletic communities.

Help for Athlete's

European based technology now offers a major breakthrough in treating sports-related soft tissue injuries. Focus on the lymphatic system and the treatment of lymphedema has brought us to the realization that optimizing lymph transport capacity is crucial for both chronic and acute edemas, including:

Bursitis
Tendonitis
Hematoma
Shin Splits
Contusions
Groin pull
Post-surgical edema
Strains and Sprains
Overuse syndromes

The age-old standard of Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation (RICE) has given way to a more effective protocol incorporating soft, variable-size particles of highly resilient foam padding under compression to guide excess fluid away from the injury site back into the circulatory system. The optimization of micro-circulation and reduction of localized swelling reduces the pain associated with inflammation. Lymphatic clearing aids in the restoration of normal Range of Motion (ROM) and physical activity, minimizes the likelihood of fibrotic build-up, and, of extreme importance to the athlete... shortens their recovery time.

Some History

It all started at the Foeldi Clinic in Germany, where their lymphedema therapist, Bernd Schneider, discovered the miracle of using shredded, or chipped foam, under compression to reduce swelling. The varying sizes, resiliencies and shapes of foam created both high and low pressure points . . . increasing venous re-absorption while leaving tissue spaces for the rerouting of excess interstitial fluid to functional lymphatic pathways.

Sports Community

The news quickly spread to lymphedema clinics throughout the country, and it was only a matter of time before the benefits of this technology were recognized by the sports community. Athletic trainers and professional athletes discovered that short-stretch bandaging over chipped foam padding reduced traumatic edemas and accelerated the healing process.

Sports Talk

"The JoViPak was a miracle for my sprained ankle. After just two nights of wearing it over night my ankle was down to normal size. Any swelling that returned during the day was miraculously gone by morning. I believe the JoViPak significantly reduced my recovery time from the ankle injury. It is comfortable to wear and works like magic."
