What is the geko™ Device?
The geko™ is a revolutionary, non-invasive neuromuscular electrostimulator (NMES). Roughly the size of a wristwatch, this disposable, battery-powered wearable is applied externally just below the knee.
It works by delivering painless electrical pulses to the common peroneal nerve, stimulating the calf and foot muscles to contract. This completely replicates the body’s natural muscle pump, increasing deep vein blood flow in the lower limbs by up to 60%—delivering the circulatory benefits of walking to patients who are immobile.
Local Availability
In an effort to make this advanced clinical technology more accessible, Avelon Healthcare has ensured that the geko™ device is widely available across major medical channels. It can now be found in most hospitals, providing critical vascular support for patients during their stay, as well as at Park@City Pharmacy outlets.
By making this device available through both hospital networks and local pharmacies, we are ensuring that patients transitioning from clinical environments to home care can maintain a high standard of recovery and circulatory health.
