At Hudson Family Chiropractic in Hoboken, we’re always looking for safe, effective ways to help your body recover faster, feel lighter, and perform better. One of our favorite tools for leg recovery and circulation support is Compression Boot Therapy using the Normatec Elite system.
Whether you’re a runner on the waterfront, a busy commuter, a pregnant woman, or an active parent chasing kids around Hoboken, Compression Boot Therapy can help your legs feel refreshed and ready for whatever your day throws at you.
Our powerful and effective wellness service, Compression Boot Therapy, is trusted by athletes and anyone seeking better circulation, reduced muscle soreness, and faster healing. Compression boots can significantly speed up the recovery process after exercise, surgery or injury by enhancing blood flow and helping reduce inflammation.
Whether you’re recovering from a tough workout, managing chronic pain, or simply want to keep your legs feeling light and energized, Compression Boot Therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free solution that fits beautifully into your overall care at Hudson Family Chiropractic.
Compression Boot Therapy can be enjoyed as a stand-alone recovery service or easily incorporated into your chiropractic or rehab care plan for enhanced results. Whether you want a single session or to add it as part of your regular visits, we can tailor it to your needs.

Compression boots mimic the natural pumping action of your leg muscles. As the chambers in the boots inflate and deflate in sequence, they:
Promote better circulation in the lower extremities
Help move fluid back toward the heart
Support the body’s natural ability to help prevent blood stasis and clot formation in appropriate candidates
Assist in flushing out metabolic waste products like lactic acid
The Normatec Elite system uses dynamic air compression to apply rhythmic pressure to your legs, from feet to thighs. This pressure helps move fluid and flush out metabolic waste products — promoting faster muscle recovery and leaving your legs feeling lighter and more refreshed.
We’ve chosen the Normatec Elite because it combines cutting-edge technology with practical comfort and convenience:
Dynamic air compression with multiple overlapping zones for smooth, wave-like pressure
7 levels of adjustable compression, so we can tailor the intensity to your comfort and needs
Cordless, streamlined design – no bulky external control unit, making sessions more comfortable and less cluttered
Designed by a medical doctor and engineer, and widely used by elite athletes for recovery and performance support
In simple terms: Normatec Elite gives you a high-level recovery experience in a relaxing setting, right here in Hoboken.
The many benefits of Compression Boot Therapy with Normatec Elite include:
Faster recovery between workouts or games
Reduced muscle soreness and fatigue after running, lifting, cycling, or long days on your feet
Improved circulation in the legs and feet
Increased range of motion, so your joints and muscles feel less stiff
Enhanced athletic performance, thanks to better recovery and less lingering soreness

Compression Boot Therapy may be a great fit if you are:
A runner or cyclist training along the Hudson or in local races
A recreational athlete playing soccer, basketball, or other sports around Hoboken and Jersey City
On your feet all day – teachers, servers, healthcare workers, retail workers, and commuters walking to and from PATH and ferries
Dealing with leg fatigue or mild swelling after sitting or traveling
Focused on recovery while working through a chiropractic and rehab plan
Recovering from post-lower extremity surgery
Pregnant and experience leg fatigue, swelling, or achiness (with approval from your obstetrician)
During your visit, we’ll help determine whether Compression Boot Therapy is appropriate for your specific health situation and goals.
A session with Normatec Elite at Hudson Family Chiropractic is easy and comfortable:
Set-up
You’ll relax in a seated or reclined position while we help you slide into the compression boots.
Customized settings
We’ll choose a compression level and session time based on your comfort, activity level, and goals.
The treatment
You’ll feel a snug, wave-like squeeze starting at your feet and moving up toward your thighs. Most people describe it as a firm, relaxing “leg massage” that feels surprisingly good.
After your session
Many patients notice their legs feel lighter, less tense, and less sore. It’s a great add-on before or after an adjustment, or alongside your rehab exercises.
Sessions typically last 15–30 minutes, depending on your needs and schedule.

At Hudson Family Chiropractic, Compression Boot Therapy is one part of a whole-person approach that may also include:
Gentle, individualized chiropractic adjustments
Targeted rehab and strengthening exercises

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Suzie! She has helped me so much with PT. She is always so nice and down to earth! I fully recommend seeing her if you are dealing with any sort of pelvic discomfort / pain after birth.

John saved me from horrible, daily headaches that I was suffering from for 3+ months. I am pretty tolerant to pain but they were bad enough for me to take multiple painkillers with not much effect. I had signed up for pain management doc and the appointment was months away and I figured I’d come back to John who I saw a couple of times before for another issue with my shoulder. After literally 2 visits, I was managing without painkillers and with maintenance sessions, headaches are practically gone. He *always* has a warm smile and encouraging words, I am so grateful to have found someone whose expertise I trust and who I genuinely enjoy seeing. I’ve sent my mom and my brother to him! And if he can’t do much for your issue – he will tell you straight up. Outstanding!

Was a full thorough exam/chiropractic experience with Dr. Bill. Was a very comfortable and nice place. Going twice more this week for my back.

I have worked with Dr. Mike for years. His gentle, attentive approach to chiropractor work takes all the nervousness about going to get an adjustment. And he doesn’t just do adjustments. He does deep stretches to ensure a correct spine adjustment and will even recommend exercises to do to improve posture. He is knowledgeable and incredibly effective. I always feel notably better after each visit. He is humble, friendly and extremely easy to work with. Do not hesitate in seeking his services for all of your chiropractory needs. You will not be disappointed.

My favorite chiropractors ever! Educated me and also listened to me. I am a furniture maker and they helped me get back to work a few different times and also helped me maintain a healthy back when I wasn’t injured.

I always get great results from the professional and helpful staff. The chiropractic care has been instrumental in my active lifestyle.

John is wonderful! I have been going to chiropractors since I was young do to a back injury. John is the first chiropractor to address my problem areas with complete confidence and professionalism. Every time I leave this office I think why did I wait so long! Definitely getting on a regular monthly appointment!

I am a longtime patient of John and Mike and found their services to be professional, proficient, and effective. I can always count on getting an appointment in a reasonable time and getting in and out is fast. But recently, I needed the attention of a Physical Therapist, and that’s when they referred me to their therapist, Nicole.
My first meeting with Nicole was extremely pleasant and I was quickly impressed with her knowledge in her profession. She made me feel comfortable and she explained what was causing my pain and what her course of action would be. Within a few days, the pain had almost disappeared and I started for feel great. She continued to work with me and again, the appointments were around my schedule and we got to work and I was out the door never feeling rushed.
I want to personally thank the staff at Hudson Family Chiropractic, John and Mike for the work that they do and also Nicole for her skills in getting me back on my NEW bicycle.
Great job Guys.

Hudson Family Chiropractic was my place for treatment when I lived in Hoboken for several years. Dr. Mike & Dr. John are both fantastic, easy going and great at what they do. Dr. Mike, who usually treated me, always listened and answered any questions that I had. He also treated me throughout my pregnancy, which was great. Everyone there is welcoming and friendly. I moved to the suburbs right before I had my son and I really miss these guys a lot. A wonderful family office. Highly recommend!!

Hudson Family Chiropractic is a long standing practice with roots in Hoboken, and real concern for their patients. I always feel great after an adjustment, and look forward to the next.
