CV2 Treadling Device

The CV2 is a new device that can effectively increase circulation for nearly everybody - especially those who are sedentary or with limited mobility. The CV2 is a painless, easy to use, non-fatiguing and non-invasive device that does not require electricity or any external power source, nor requires any attachments (pads, cords) to the body.

Published medical research has demonstrated that treadling on low-resistance devices such as the CV2 can dramatically increase the velocity of blood flow out of and into the lower extremities. The increased flow can reduce swelling and the pain associated with swollen legs and can potentially help in the treatment/care of diabetic foot ulcers. There are reports of the acceleration of healing of sores and ulcers due to poor circulation, and the reduction of the symptoms of night cramps and restless leg syndrome.

The CV2 is a relatively small, movable platform on which one places his feet and moves them up and down at the ankles similar to a treadle-operated sewing machine. Low mechanical resistance and active-assisted recruitment make the device easy to use and encourages compliance. People can simply watch TV or work at a desk when treadling with the CV2.
