Overview Top Picks How to Choose Benefits Brands Space Ownership FAQ Compression Compression Gear — Body Helix to Therabody, $41 to $699 Peak Primal Wellness carries compression sleeves, wraps, and pneumatic recovery systems from Body Helix, ReAthlete, and Therabody, covering everything from a targeted elbow sleeve to a full-leg air compression massager. Prices run from $41 for a single-joint compression sleeve up to $699 for the Therabody RecoveryAir Prime pneumatic system. This collection suits a wide range of users: competitive athletes who need consistent joint support during training, people recovering from soft-tissue injuries, and anyone dealing with chronic swelling or circulation issues. The practical starting question is whether you need passive compression (a sleeve or wrap you wear) or active compression (a pneumatic device that cycles pressure automatically), because those two categories serve different recovery moments. Entry point: The Body Helix Full Knee Compression Sleeve at $57 offers medical-grade, full-joint coverage for knee pain and active support without requiring a prescription or fitting appointment. Premium option: The Therabody RecoveryAir Prime at $699 delivers a clinically proven pneumatic compression massage, boosting lymphatic drainage and reducing delayed-onset muscle soreness in a portable, easy-to-use system. Medical-grade materials: Body Helix sleeves are constructed with uniform medical-grade compression fabric that maintains consistent pressure across the joint, unlike many consumer-grade neoprene products that compress unevenly. Athletic use: Compression sleeves for the elbow, knee, thigh, and calf are well-suited to sports with repetitive joint loading, including running, tennis, golf, cycling, and weightlifting. Wellness use: Air compression leg systems like the ReAthlete Air-C are equally effective for non-athletes dealing with muscle fatigue, edema, or poor lower-limb circulation after long days on their feet.
