PARIS 2024 PARALYMPICS
Experience the latest in performance enhancement, rehabilitation, and recovery for disabled athletes with KAATSU equipment and protocols at the Paris 2024 Paralympics where CEO Steven Munatones and Chief Performance Officer Chris Morgan will be.
KAATSU M1 DONATION
People with disabilities have always touched the heart of KAATSU inventor Dr. Yoshiaki Sato. Dr. Sato has generously donated 100 free KAATSU M1 units to Paralympians from every athletic discipline.
Over the years, many disabled athletes have benefitted from using KAATSU for their athletic performance, rehabilitation, and recovery. KAATSU-using disabled athletes include amputees and little people as well as para athletes with cerebral palsy and CMT (Charcot-Marie-Tooth) disease.
The M1 model has tactile and audio features that allows it to also be used by blind athletes. The M1 bands are also more bendable and lighter than other KAATSU AirBands that benefit those individuals with various hand disabilities or limb injuries.
The M1 will arrive the first quarter of 2025.
KAATSU + OLY HOUSE
KAATSU technology was presented at the OLY House, a home-away-from-home for the 10,500 Olympic athletes to try and use. CEO Steven Munatones and Chief Performance Officer Chris Morgan demonstrated and explained the benefits of KAATSU technology to all interested athletes, coaches, trainers, and administrators.
JAMAL HILL
2020 TOKYO PARALYMPICS MEDALIST
"I need that topline performance. I want to be able to maximize my experience so I am always using my KAATSU unit. I am running my KAATSU Cycles all the time: on the airplane and at home, I am always training with my KAATSU bands. I am in love with that burn for my training. I use it to wind down after all my races. I put my feet up on the wall and run through those KAATSU Cycles time and time again [for recovery], just to keep my body fresh, my legs fresh, and my blood circulating. The results speak for themselves. My body, my mind, my spirit were all able to come together in perfect harmony."
JOSEPH LOWREY
SERGEANT FIRST CLASS (RET)
"I am a medically retired Army Special Forces soldier and was shot in the head in 2014 in Afghanistan by a Taliban PKM round. I’m now a hemiplegic with paralysis on my left side as a result of this massive traumatic brain injury (TBI). KAATSU continues to make a significant and positive impact on my muscle spasticity and involuntary muscle tone due to the numerous neurological disorders associated with my TBI. KAATSU has given me more control of my body, and the sleep benefits are game-changers. KAATSU has changed my life."

AN IMPLAUSIBLE COMEBACK
28 days before the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, silver medalist Todd Lodwick suffered a horrific accident where he tore ligaments and broke his left humerus. Doctors recommended surgery (i.e., no Olympics). Instead, Lodwick chose KAATSU.
SWIM UP HILL
Especially after hard workouts or intensely competitive all-out sprints at international competitions, and long international air flights, Jamal Hill appreciates the effects of KAATSU, a non-invasive, effective modality that naturally and safely enables natural body healing and natural remedies to heal and recover.
