World Champion and 2016 Olympic Games Silver medallist PV Sindhu is well on her way to prove herself at the Tokyo Olympics. She just made a step forwards as her request to buy advanced recovery equipment was approved by the Government on Friday.
“I am happy that it did not take even a day for the Sports Authority of India to approve my request for the recovery system. The clearance was really quick, and I will be able to place an order and procure it in time to take it with me to the Olympic Games,” Sindhu said upon receiving the Administrative Sanction to procure the Game Ready recovery system on Friday.
The system circulates ice water and delivers intermittent compression through specific wraps for an athlete’s legs, arms, back, and shoulders. It helps reduce an athlete’s pain, spasm, and swelling by cooling the affected areas. The compression stimulates the flow of oxygenated blood.
“It will help me immensely after each long training session or match as it is a portable cold and compression recovery system,” Sindhu said of the system that is rated better than conventional Rest-Ice-Compression-Elevation methods of recovery.
“Sometimes one gets exhausted and experiences stiffness after matches. This will help in a quick and systematic recovery.”
