Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom – Officials from Firstkind Ltd, a subsidiary of Sky Medical Technology Ltd, announce FDA 510k clearance for U.S. commercialization of their sports recovery device, firefly, indicated for increased lower limb blood circulation to decrease muscle soreness after intense exercise and improve muscle performance.
The size of a wrist-watch and worn at the knee, the battery powered firefly device delivers painless electrical impulses to the common peroneal nerve to activate the muscle pumps of the lower leg that return blood towards the heart. The mechanism of action emulates the blood flow rate normally achieved by walking – up to 60% – without having to move or exert energy. An alternative or supplement to active recovery, such as light jogging or swimming, the firefly device increases blood circulation without re-imposing cardiovascular strain.
