How It Works

Blood Flow Moderation

  • KAATSU safely reduces venous flow, leading blood to pool in your limbs longer than normal.
  • During KAATSU capillaries lengthen and expand to help improve circulation and vasuclar elasticity.


Nitric Oxide Production

  • KAATSU leads to production of VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) and nitric oxide in the body.
  • Nitric oxide allows blood vessels to constrict and relax, and also regulates the inflammatory cells in the blood vessel walls.


Pituitary Gland

  • Lactic acid builds up in the muscle causing the pituitary gland to secrete growth hormone
  • Growth hormone is secreted in large amounts activating the body's metabolism.


See It In Action

  • The KAATSU equipment applies moderate compression on the upper arms and upper legs. The pneumatic KAATSU Air Bands serve the opposite function of a tourniquet (i.e., it helps blood in the limbs, not out of the limbs). This engorges the limbs with blood that leads to a cascade of safe and natural physiological reactions in the body.
