Compression Boot Therapy

Fresh legs faster

Compression boots have gained great popularity among athletes who are looking to accelerate recovery time and for those who are looking to add one more piece to the health optimization puzzle. Compression boots use sequential pressure from the bottom up to help improve blood and lymph fluid circulation. The result is improved removal of toxins and lymphatic fluid, improved tissue repair, and overall enhanced recovery and performance.

Accelerated Muscle Recovery: Accelerating the recovery process is one of the primary advantages of this compression therapy. Dynamic compression technology increases blood flow and lymphatic drainage, flushes out metabolic waste, and reduces inflammation in the leg muscles, thereby accelerating the recovery process of the athlete or fitness enthusiast. Accelerating the recovery process will reduce downtime between workouts, and healing will be faster after intense activity.

Reduced Muscle Soreness: Compression boots significantly reduce muscle soreness and stiffness by improving circulation and facilitating the removal of lactic acid and other toxins from the muscles, allowing athletes to recover more quickly and feel fresher for their next training session or competition.

Enhanced Performance: Athletes using compression boots often experience improved overall performance with better results and a competitive edge due to faster recovery and reduced muscle fatigue.

Benefits

questions on Compression Boot Therapy

  • Are compression boots only affecting blood flow?

    No. Compression boots do improve blood circulation through use of the one-way valve structure of veins, but just as importantly, they improve lymph fluid circulation. Lymph fluid circulation is essential for the removal of toxins from the space between cells called the interstitial space. This enhances the body’s natural detoxification abilities.

  • How long should you use compression boots?

    Typically, the minimum treatment time is 15 minutes, but this time will vary based on the client’s goals and intensity of treatment.

  • What do you wear with compression boots?

    We suggest that you wear compression tights, shorts or leggings. Skin should be clean and dry before treatment.

  • Can you use compression boots every day?

    Yes, compression boots can be used daily.

  • Can you overdo compression boots?

    If you experience tingling or numbness in your legs, it is a sign the pressure may be too high. This generally won’t cause any serious issues, but as with any treatment you should start slow and gradually progress intensity.

    Connor Williams at BPI is one of the most skilled and knowledgeable physical therapists I’ve worked with—and I’ve seen quite a few over the years. He brings a perfect blend of technical expertise, strong interpersonal skills, and a genuine dedication to patient care. For all the weekend warriors out there, whether you’re recovering from an injury, working to recondition, or aiming to improve your biomechanics, I highly recommend scheduling a consultation with Connor at BPI!

  • Our son, Chase, was in a dirt bike accident in May 2022. After his surgery, we started with Bradley. At Chase's 2yr check-up his surgeons were speechless with his progress. He had more movement back than they expected and attributed it to his amazing therapist and his hard work. We love Bradley and North Idaho Physical Therapy!

    I have worked with many different physical therapist and offices throughout my life and this Liberty Lake team is the best I have ever got to work with. Connor, Lexie, and Tatyana have been incredible and really make me feel like they care not only about my physical health, but also my emotional and mental health as well. When you deal with chronic pain, it all takes a toll and they make it evident that how you are feeling, all the way around matters to them. Everyone in the office shows outstanding professionalism, kindness and integrity and they also like to have a good laugh. You will not regret working with them!

    I first needed for physical therapy 10 years ago, this was the first of many times I would be a patient of NIPT and Sky. Ever since that first experience, I have remained a loyal patient to the practice for all my injuries and recovery needs. I love the team, positive atmosphere and multifaceted approach that has always help me to return to my optimal self. 10/10 recommend and wouldn’t go anywhere else!

    Sky has been treating me since my first surgery in 2013 for a right shoulder replacement. Since then I have had my right and left knee replaced along with a hip replacement. I just recently had my left shoulder done and am back in physical therapy with Sky. He is a great physical therapist and always helps me do what is the best for the problem at the time. I highly recommend an NIPT because all their therapist, office gals and techs are good at their jobs!

    Andrea at the front desk was phenomenal. Always made me feel at ease. Was always so helpful. All the lady's at the front desk were amazing. Brandon my PT was hands down the best PT I've ever had in my entire life. I came in with a work injury and he helped me so much throughout the process. Not just with the injury but with the mental challenges it posed as well. Always friendly. We had great conversations. Excellent listener and very attentive. I really can't say enough about him, I could go on and on. He was made for this profession no doubt about it. Just and excellent human being, one of the best people in general I have ever met. Had the best experience one could have at this place. I highly recommend their services.

    I had cancer/treatments and came very debilitated from the chemo and radiation. Alex helped me recondition me, so I am now back to my pre cancer abilities + stamina. He was very encouraging the entire time. As a retired nurse I quickly recognized the skill and expertise he provides during the rehab process. He also made a big difference in my shoulder pain to the point it is now healed. Thank you, Alex. I will forever be grateful for all you have done for me.

    I had gone to Sky for physical therapy in the past for my back so when I had my knee replacement I wanted to go back to him. Sky and the staff were very helpful and patient with me. Sky helped me set goals and reach them even though it was painful, I felt confident that Sky knew exactly what I needed to do to get back on track. I’m walking normal and I’m very happy about that. Thank you Sky and staff!

    In the last four years, I have had four different injuries which Jared has treated me for he has fantastic. I must confess he is the best physical therapist I have ever had. He is a great listener and highly skilled at what he does. With many different injuries I’ve sustained he listens and tests carefully and comes up with a plan. He is incredibly observant, with my foot injury he noted my walking gate was off and helped me correct it so I can avoid future injury. Everything he has done has helped me recovery 100% and more.

    Shawna is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable about how various health conditions impact the body physically and how to make progress in physical therapy without triggering an autoimmune or EDS flare. I have learned a lot from her. I have gone to other PTs who did not understand my health conditions and caused flares resulting in regression rather than making progress.

    I was referred to physical therapy due to instability and muscle spasms. Physical therapy has helped me so much from Dec 2023- Aug 2024, I went from using a walker to being able to walking for hours before issues arise. I started PT in the pool then graduated to regular PT. We are now working on using the stairs. NIPT staff is amazing and will go at my pace. If I have set back, they adjust the plan to fit my needs.

    NIPT is a very friendly team and my physical therapist there, Sky Pruitt, helped me get back to normal after both a bad shoulder with torn labral cartilage and then later a bad knee. He was encouraging knowledgeable and very competent and I never could have come through those episodes without his help. I highly recommend NIPT and Sky Pruitt to anyone in need of help with physical recovery of any kind.

  • I became ill with sever CHF in January 2022 and also suffer with arthritis pain, instability, compromised mobility and other age-related problems. After continuous vigorous diuretic therapy, Dr Linford referred me to NIPT. My wife had received PT from Alex with excellent results. Alex's compassionate way had expedited my recovery and has helped me stay committed to the exercise regime over the past two years he has helped me with flare ups with neck arthritis with great results to aquatic therapy for imbalance and falling issues. under the guidance to help from Tim, I have been improving steadily and am so thankful for all the help both Alex and Tim gave me. I am getting stronger and am able to enjoy living more fully in these later stages of my life. The entire program runs smoothly because of the friendly competent and expedient skills of the supportive staff, i.e. Kim, Bridgette, Joan. They are the best! Thank you to the whole team!

    Dr. Jason Vaughn is something like a medical alchemist. In one session, he uncovered the heart-issues driving my medical issues. In less than an hour, I made the decision to up-stakes and return home. You won't find this expertise anywhere else, IMO. This is one of the scarce medical facilities that treat you as a loved and treasured human being. Add the technical expertise to that, and voila! Real medicine.

    My husband was sent to North Idaho Physical Therapy and was fortunate enough to be assigned to Matt Bray. Matt is the best! Very likable and he knows exactly what a person needs. When I had hand surgery in Dec 2024 and needed 2 months of therapy I knew exactly where I would go, and who I would ask for. Matt is now my therapist as well. Because of Matt, I am making progress after having the hand in a cast for 6 weeks. I can’t say enough good things about Matt, his great personality, and the knowledge that he has. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a great therapist in a pleasant environment. The employees all seem to be happy working here as well.

    I am over "50" and needed guidance on how to adapt to my changing body. I went and saw Krista at BioPerformance Insitute about nutrition to see what I could do to lose weight and feel good, little did I know what all a Registered Dietitian does for you…She worked within my lifestyle choices and helped me come up with some great plans to help me lose weight. I have never felt like I am on a diet, and I am losing weight. I am now down 25lbs in 4 months! I was super thrilled when I found out my insurance covers it…Thank you Krista for showing me how to live my best life!

Sky is friendly, caring and professional. I would and have recommended him to anyone who needs help!

    Unbelievable PT. Best I have ever had, and I have had a lot. I just went to my 2 week post-op from a hip replacement. I was walking around when the nurse came to get me. She asked 3 times for my name in astonishment. Yup, that's me and yup, I am post-op. One of the best recoveries ever. Thank you,Travis, for weeks of pre-op and getting right back on the post-op. What a difference working with you has made in my recovery! 72 years old and flying through it this time. Woohoo! I'm ok to drive next week! THANK YOU, TRAVIS!

    I needed physical therapy to strengthen my knee prior to knee surgery and NIPT came highly recommended by several friends who had great results. My PT Greg Roman has been wonderful! Very knowledgeable, listens to what my issues are, and has developed a plan that has really strengthened my knee. I am also needing surgery on my shoulder and Greg has developed a program for me that has strengthened my shoulder to the point that I can function well and will be able to hold off on that surgery indefinitely. As for the rest of the staff, they are always pleasant, efficient and friendly. They set the tone for a positive experience at every visit. I am very satisfied with NIPT!

    After having two hip replacements, I was in need for regaining strength, balance, the use my right foot. The treatment I received from Donny and the home exercises he gave me brought me to reach those goals. Donny was very positive and supportive in my road to recovery at age 75. I have certain limitations and that was always to be with me, but Donny focused on what I could do rather than what I could not do. I would highly recommend Donny. I was more than satisfied with him and my results.

    I came to Krista so wrapped up in diet culture. I didn’t know what to eat any more… Krista has completely changed the way I look at food…While working with Krista I learned about intuitive eating… She helped reshape my mindset on how to listen to my body when it comes to eating…. While seeing Krista she recommended supplements that were right for me and performed tests to learn more about how my body works. She didn’t only focus on what food I was putting into my body, but she addressed sleep, exercise, stress, and my overall health…Overall, it was a great experience, and I now have the confidence to live my daily life feeling great about my lifestyle and not feeling guilty all thanks to the help from Krista!

    Before reaching out to Krista at BPI, I tried everything to feel and look better. I knew nutrition was a critical component of my goals, yet I didn’t seek help…I hit a low point in my life once I crossed the scale at 236. I was exercising, I was eating well (so I thought) but I couldn’t get the weight to come down… I work out at BPI and knew Krista worked there…. I knew she was a dietitian, but I just couldn’t bring myself to ask for help…I have dropped over 25 pounds since seeking her professional guidance. I only have six more pounds to go to my goal, and glad that I made the leap… Krista can help motivate, provide guidance, or even be a good person to listen when you need to vent…We celebrated each win, we developed the strategy that works well for me… I wish I didn’t wait so long to make an appointment.

    I discovered Daryl close to a year ago and have definitely been a repeat customer ever since. His extensive knowledge of how the body works is apparent in his ability to quickly understand my bumbling description of ‘where it hurts’. He listens to exactly what I feel I need and makes additional suggestions for improvement. He may be soft spoken but he certainly delivers an incredibly effective massage!

    My son, Ryan, sought therapy for overall weakness, abdominal and shoulder pain and the inability to walk. Since starting with NIPT, he has experienced a noticeable increase in strength. He loves working in the pool. Progress has been slow and Ryan is not fully walking yet, but Bradley, Justin, Stephanie and Mishelle have all been so unfailingly kind and patient through the process.

    How fortunate it was for me that I was afraid to Kristoff at NIPT I’ve had chronic low back pain for decades and after a recent failed surgery that made it worse and hurt my mobility quite a lot. Kristoff helped me in 15 sessions more than I ever thought possible. I’ve been other physical therapist over the years, but Kristoffs knowledge and understanding of my muscular skills situation was impressive. Now I’m stronger and more mobile, I’m in far less pain and have a realistic exercise path laid out for me that will bring me even better results. Without that providential referral to Kristoff, there is no way I would be where I am. He is a solid professional pleasure to work with, and I recommend him with high praise.
