KAATSU is a Japanese word which means “additional pressure”, a concept invented by Dr. Yoshiaki Sato in 1966. KAATSU ushered in the BFR (Blood Flow Restriction) market and remains its leader. KAATSU protocols were invented in Japan; its products are engineered and designed in California. KAATSU is a state-of-the-art automated pressure system that safely optimizes blood circulation for health, fitness, rehabilitation, and recovery. KAATSU equipment consists of a small smart compressor and pneumatic, stretchable bands which are placed around your arms or legs. The bands inflate and deflate in a scientific sequence based on patented algorithms that boost circulation, improve hormonal balance, and develop muscle tone in a time-effective manner with a minimum of effort. KAATSU is the pioneer in the emerging Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) market.
