INDIANAPOLIS, IN, June 05, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- SIGVARIS, the global leader of graduated compression garments, announced earlier this year a partnership with the Indianapolis Colts. In addition to partnering with the team, player Joseph Addai, star running back, was named as an official endorser of the Athletic Recovery Sock.
SIGVARIS is thrilled to be partnering with the Indianapolis Colts and player Joseph Addai, to help improve athletic recovery. The NFL team is being supplied Athletic Recovery socks for the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons. The socks are to be worn after games, practices, training sessions and during travel.
A growing trend among competitive athletes and weekend warriors, professional sports athletes are using compression socks during and after performance events to improve their results. The SIGVARIS Athletic Recovery sock flushes out lactic acid and provides relief from delayed onset leg muscle soreness after strenuous exercise or competition.
"We're happy that players like Joseph Addai have had the opportunity to try our product and experience for themselves, the benefit of wearing true graduated compression," says Jason Kern, SIGVARIS North America product manager. "Athletes all over the country have tried and love the Athletic Recovery sock, and we can't wait for even more active people to see for themselves the benefit of wearing these socks."
SIGVARIS created http://www.athleticrecoverysock.com to provide consumers with information on the new sock - Athletic Recovery, as well as a forum for athletes to discuss their compression therapy experiences and results.
