To help the recovery of players and prevent such injuries, Excel teamed up with Bioflow. The new collaboration will see Excel esports players benefit from Bioflow’s magnetic therapy wristband.
The wristband, according to the wellness company that has more than three decades of experience in helping athletes, features “a multidirectional force known as Central Reverse Polarity.” Bioflow explained that this feature helps athletes recover more easily and helps with pains in the hands, neck or back by increasing blood flow, as well as cellular activity.
