Why healthcare and sports professionals in the UK choose Game Ready®

Trusted, evidence-based cryotherapy
for post-operative recovery and rehabilitation

Game Ready® is used by healthcare and performance professionals across the UK to support post-operative care, rehabilitation and sports recovery. From hospitals and clinics to elite sports environments, it integrates into professional recovery pathways where pain management and swelling control are critical.

Its cryotherapy with active compression has been clinically evaluated across multiple indications, demonstrating reduced post-operative pain, decreased swelling, faster functional recovery and lower reliance on opioid medication, supporting modern, evidence-based and opioid-sparing approaches to recovery.

“The Game Ready cryotherapy and active compression system has become essential in immediate post-operative care. It provides both comfort and high-quality treatment for my patients in managing pain, inflammation, and edema.”

“Incorporating Game Ready into post-surgical care has significantly enhanced our patients’ recovery experience. The combination of cold and compression is far more effective than traditional icing methods.”

“From a clinical perspective, Game Ready helps us control inflammation during the critical early stages after surgery. Players report less pain, and we often see improved early range-of-motion outcomes.”

Clinically proven outcomes that support faster recovery

Evidence-based cryotherapy with
measurable clinical results

Game Ready® is supported by clinical studies across post-operative care, rehabilitation and sports recovery, demonstrating measurable benefits for patients, clinicians and healthcare organisations.

By combining controlled cryotherapy with dynamic intermittent compression, Game Ready® enhances the delivery of cold therapy to the treated area. Active compression improves tissue contact, supports lymphatic drainage and promotes faster, deeper and more consistent cooling, compared to cold therapy alone.

Clinically observed results include:

  • Up to 50% reduction in morphine consumption

    following surgery, supporting opioid-sparing recovery pathways

  • Average hospital stay reduced by 1.2 days

    in post-operative spine care, contributing to earlier discharge

  • Faster recovery of knee range of motion

    in post-operative knee care, contributing to earlier return-to-activity

  • Dynamic compression adjustable from 0 to 75 mmHg

    allowing personalised treatment based on clinical needs

These outcomes position Game Ready® as a trusted cryo-compression solution, supporting recovery from the recovery room through rehabilitation and return-to-play.
