THIS ‘cutting-edge’ device developed in Lymm is now a hit in Asia as sales soar in Hong Kong and Japan.

Lymm-based Swellaway Ltd developed an innovative wellness device, the ProMOTION EV1, which is used by professional athletes all around the world.

The innovative product has been backed by extensive scientific research and helps to encourage a speedy recovery for strained muscles, through cryotherapy.

The wellness company has made an exclusive distribution partnership with Hong Kong and Japan.

Jonathan Smith, managing director at ProMOTION said: “We are excited to have signed an exclusive distribution contract with Three For One Inc to cover the Japan and Hong Kong geographies.

“The passion, enthusiasm and commitment of the team at Three For One Inc to launch the ProMOTION EV1 really stood out for us.”

The device offers targeted cooling, heating and compression in one device and was famously used by Harry Maguire to get fit for the Euros back in 2021.

Three For One Inc is backed by action actor Kane Kosugi and elite trainer Motokazu Yamasaka – both passionate users of the product, who decided to invest in bringing ProMOTION EV1 to the Japanese market.

Kane Kosugi said: “Three for One Inc is pleased to have signed a long-term agreement to distribute the ProMOTION branded products in Japan and Hong Kong.

“My long-term trainer Motokazu Yamasaka and I both tried ProMOTION EV1 and loved it.

“So easy to use and versatile, without the need for ice and water, the EV1 stood out as a unique innovation that we are passionate about launching to our company’s target markets.

“The research and evidence behind the product is impressive for such a new product.

“We know wellness, training and conditioning, alongside elite sporting applications, are all growing markets, and the versatility of the product creates an expansive range of applications across both sport and medical applications.”
