Why a Professional Dancer Swears by Hip-to-Toe Compression Therapy
If anyone knows what tired legs feel like, it’s Amanda Collins, a 29-year-old professional dancer based in New York City. Between rehearsals, performances, and training for a half marathon, Amanda moves almost every single day — with intensity and precision.
But what she does after training is what caught our attention:
“I love how high Flowell goes – it covers the glutes and hips. Post-race, it felt incredible to address the tightness all the way up.”
This is recovery redefined. And Amanda is part of a growing community of active women who use smart compression therapy not just for recovery — but to feel lighter, more energized, and more in control of their body.
The Problem: Heavy Legs. Tight Glutes. No Time to Slow Down.
As a dancer, Amanda trains 4 to 6 times a week — combining dance practice with strength training and distance running. Her next personal goal? Run a 1:35 half marathon. That means long runs on weekends, sprints during the week, and little time to rest.
“I usually feel it in my IT band, hamstrings, and especially my quads. After races, even walking up stairs can feel heavy.”
Stretching and foam rolling only helped so much. “They work,” she says, “but I never felt like I was recovering deeply.”
That’s when she tried Flowell.
What Worked: Smart Compression That Reaches the Hips
Amanda’s first impression? Relief — and surprise.
“I didn’t expect it to reach so high. Most recovery devices stop at the thigh. But Flowell compresses my hips and glutes, and that’s where I hold a lot of tension.”
Flowell’s full-coverage compression pants use air chambers to gently massage the legs, hips, and glutes. Controlled by an app, it offers different pressure levels and programs tailored to recovery, circulation, and swelling reduction.
Amanda uses it in the evenings — usually right on the couch — after a long run or rehearsal.
“It’s become a routine. I’ll watch a show, turn on Flowell, and by the end I feel like I just had a deep tissue massage.”
Why This Matters for Women Like You
Amanda may be a dancer, but her story mirrors what so many women experience — heavy legs, tight hips, and a need for recovery that fits real life.
Whether you’re managing post-workout soreness, chronic swelling from lipedema, or just want to feel more energized throughout the week, compression therapy offers a way to feel relief — quickly, quietly, and on your terms.
No clinic visit. No learning curve. Just 30 minutes to feel like yourself again.
