AIRBANDS
Pneumatic-controlled, washable, and flexible to ensure uniform pressure and safe usage for people of all ages and conditions.
ENGINEERED EXCELLENCE
KAATSU’s patented AirBands stand out from the crowd due to their innovative and unique design. The secret behind their effectiveness lies in their elasticity, stretchability, and the meticulous monitoring by KAATSU's proprietary algorithms. These attributes aren't just claims; they were put to the test and proven safe with over 7,000 cardiac rehab patients over a 10-year period at the prestigious University of Tokyo Hospital.
What distinguishes KAATSU AirBands from conventional blood pressure cuffs and tourniquets is their narrower width. This deliberate design choice prevents arterial flow blockage, ensuring freedom of movement for a wide variety of activities, from walking and running to swimming and various forms of therapy.
These bands house an air bladder that inflates uniformly towards the limb, regulated by the precise control of KAATSU's equipment and algorithms. Need to deflate the bands? It's as easy as pressing a button on the controller, depressing a valve on the connector, or releasing the Velcro on the bands.
