is this one creates a gradient compression like the other product for leg or it is only constant pressure??

Gradient Sequential Pump creates constantly gradient function like the other pump....... Machine has 60 min timer & continuous mode / 20 to 100 mmHg Pressure adjustable Controller. Thank you.

Although Neoprene is closed cell foam, this particular formulation does not rebound well after compression. The gas is squeezed out of the material and it becomes as thin as heavy paper. Don't use it for applications like a shoe insole, where constant pressure will squeeze it flat - almost permanently.

It does slightly massage an ankle but the entire unit is not worth the price, in my opinion. It does not go around the leg when it is swollen, so what's the point? My husband recently needed to use it so we tied it on with string since the velcro wouldn't match up and it helped a little. I suppose it is better than nothing but I've been massaging his legs and feet by hand and it's about the same. Remember, if you buy this, you cannot return it.

Slide on, sort of like compression sleeves. There's a small opening directly at the back side of the knee joint to flex and breathe, with porous kind of mesh texture on the rest of the back side, yet full coverage . There's an elastic strap top and bottom to firm up the fit, which is velcro at the end for easy adjustment. Love these. Had them for a couple years now and still very comfortable and though scraped, still lasting very well.

Leg foam is packaged in a rectilinear box essentially the same size as the dimensions of the leg foam permit. There was no "compression" of the foam in the box delivered to me

Yes. In my opinion when I wear the compressions, I feel more secure. I feel my legs are supported as I run. I do not feel overly compressed or too tight. I wear them for every run and love the feel. Definitely recommend.

I am not sure but it appears that the 2.5 model has a layer of material that is made up as small columns which collapse when weight is applied. That seems to be intended for reducing pressure on your bottom. I have only purchased the one so I cannot give you a comparison from personal experience.

The sequential one squeezes from your foot up to your thigh in segments so as to push the fluid up. Whereas the other one squeezes the whole leg and foot with equal pressure.

Hello, I think it depends on how much pressure you want. Obviously the small is going to fit tighter and if you are looking for stronger compression that might serve you better. I personally would choose the small, because the whole point is compression and they do stretch out after awhile so tighter in the beginning isn't necessarily a bad thing.

i think for both it depends on ur size, its a good product i've been using mine for a year no runs so far and the compression seems still good on my calf.

The sequential pump forces air through the boot as advertised. It works to increase circulation of the blood in your legs. Mine works well.

Let me put it this way: 1. I use the grip handles, foot straps and anchors interchangeably between the 2 different products. 2. The length of the Bodylastic tubes are slightest longer than the Mountain ones. Hence if you intend to use both right and left limb simultaneously, example a two handed lat pull-down, you cannot use one Bodylastic tube for the left hand and the Mountain tube in the other hand. 3. The weight equivalent of the 2 products are different, example mountain red tubes are 25-30 lbs wheras the red in Bodylastic is not, namely, the color codings used by both products do not correspond. 4. The weight of each tube is marked on the Bodylastic tubes, with the Moutain product, I hand copy the weight of each color tube and tape it onto the tube myself. 5. The Bodylastic came with a big wall chart of exercise for posting on the wall. Hope this Helps.

The ones that say Elevation are 20-30mmHG. The ones called on the spot are 15-20 mg. that is what it said on my packaging when I got them. Both say elevated compression ... I've worn both... Both work well for me I had ankle surgery last September and I teach school so on my feet all day... They are the only brand I've found that keep me on my feet and swelling down

CP Series Compression Sleeves Are Made of High Quality Premium Breathable Compression Fabric. Made of 87% Nylon and 13% SpandexI use them playing basketball to protect from calf pulls- so far so good! Used to use the neoprene style which were comfortable and effective however don't breathe and are hotter! These provide more support, breathe, cooler and work great.

I have 2 compression tubes on my knee strap. I have IT Band syndrome and it does help, but than my single one helps also.

Hummmm Mine is a Gradient Sequential Compression Circulation System Ohbiker. It has an on and off and a timer and it is absolutely wonderful. I used this item as pictured for daily usage for 2-3 months. Now, I have gone several moths without using it but apply vodka, magnesium flakes for the occasional RLS. But I plan to start using it again soon. I feel this is a long term care thing and not a quick fix. Really unsure where the instructions were that states this is for blood and lymph though I am sure it is doing just that as it does the gradual compressions up and down the legs. Best wishes...

Hard to see from photo, but this brace does have rigid stays on inside and outside of leg which do inhibit movement to some degree. Maybe a brace like the regular GenuTrain would move more freely.
