For most people, it takes a few weeks of daily usage of Revitive before they start to feel the benefit. Some people start to see an improvement after only a few days, for others it may take 6-8 weeks, especially if they have been suffering for many years. Everyone's different and that's why, when you buy directly (either from the call center or from this website) we include a 60-day (8 weeks) trial period, so everyone has the chance to feel the Revitive benefit.

Exercise is important and Revitive is not designed to replace exercise. Research has shown that compared to 20 minutes of heel-toe raising exercises, Revitive was at least or even more efficient at resolving swelling and circulation.

The Revitive device is mains operated. The remote control is battery operated and includes batteries.

Revitive is classified as a Class II device.

General medical devices (that fall within the scope of the Medical Devices Directive) are categorized into classes according to the degree of risk inherent in the device

General medical devices are grouped into four classes as follows:

  • Class I lowest risk
  • Class II Medium Risk
  • Class III Medium/High Risk
  • Class IV Greatest risk

Conformity assessment with the European Directive requires the manufacturer to demonstrate that : Claims made in relation to the device's safety and performance - under its normal conditions of use - are achieved.

Revitive should not be used by some people.

Do not use if (contraindications):

  • Fitted with an electronic implanted device such as a heart pacemaker or Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (AICD)
  • You are pregnant
  • Being treated for, or have the symptoms of, an existing Deep Vein Thrombosis (“DVT”)

Long periods of inactivity can put you at greater risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). DVT is a blood clot and usually occurs in a deep leg vein. If part of the DVT breaks off it may lead to potentially life-threatening complications such as pulmonary embolism.

If you have been inactive for prolonged periods and suspect you may have a DVT, consult your doctor immediately. To prevent dislodging the clot do not use Revitive. In some cases of DVT there may be no symptoms. However it is important to be aware of the symptoms that may include:

  • pain, swelling and tenderness in one of your legs (usually your calf)
  • a heavy ache in the affected area
  • warm skin in the area of the clot
  • redness of your skin, particularly at the back of your leg, below the knee

Consult your doctor as soon as possible if you show any signs of the above symptoms.
