Incrediwear
The innovative Incrediwear products are designed to increase circulation to reduce inflammation and swelling, relieve pain, restore mobility and accelerate recovery. Unlike compression products, Incrediwear products do not need to compress to work.
The proprietary fabric Incrediwear use in their products is embedded with semiconductor elements. When these elements are activated by body heat, they emit negative ions and infrared waves. Negative ions aid in cellular function and infrared waves create cellular vibrations, leading to increased circulation. The improved cell function and increased circulation of blood and lymph helps transport oxygen and nutrients to the affected area, resulting in reduced pain, swelling and faster healing.
Living painlessly with full mobility is the key to a fulfilling life. Whether it’s a morning run, yoga class or keeping up with the kids, it’s important to live life to the fullest. Incrediwear helps you prevent injury, perform better and recover faster.

Its unique frequency and vibration patterns provide optimum results, and its pin-point tip allows for hard-to-reach areas to be accessed.

Studies have also identified that specific frequencies, such as 35 Hz and 50 Hz, may be effective in improving muscle strength, power, and balance.
Overall, Tend appears to be a highly promising and innovative approach to Direct Vibration Therapy, with the potential to help people manage their physical conditions effectively.
