With the NormaTec Elite compression boots, a specific area of your legs can be enhanced with the Zone Boost feature. These boots have segments starting with Segment 1 which is at the feet and Segment 5 which is near the hip. The compression boots are designed in such a way that once a particular segment is selected in Zone Boost, it takes long to compress the zone selected. This would be useful if there is an area that needs to be focused on or has a troublesome spot. Segments can be easily selected on the mini control unit attached to the boot.
