Revive
Dance is a physically demanding and high-risk activity, with ankle sprains being one of the most common injuries among professional dancers. Fatigue is one of the most perceived reasons for injuries reported by dancers, due to over-training. Revive is a system for at-home contrast therapy that addresses the lack of aesthetics and comfort for dancers to prevent and recover from ankle sprains.
“The number of dance exposure hours are higher than the average athletic exposure hours”
“Injuries such as sprains and strains, which are often related to fatigue, constitute over half the injuries seen in professional dancers”
