Which Replay recovery system is right for you?

Cold compression is used by people who want a simple way to manage swelling and soreness after sport or training. Replay systems use cold water flow, and some models add gentle pressure to bring steady cooling across the joint.

If you are not sure which Replay setup suits your routine, this guide will help you understand the difference between Replay Home, Replay Pro and Replay Pro Portable.


What Replay systems do

Replay systems move cold water through a fitted wrap. This brings even cooling to the knee, ankle, shoulder or other joints. Pro models add gentle pressure, which may help people feel more supported during recovery sessions.

All models use short sessions and fit easily into a weekly sport or training schedule.
