Treatment

The Pressotherapy Machine is a computer-controlled dynamic air compression system that uses a compression suit with inflating air chambers. The compression suit has seven garments for feet, legs, waist, and arms, positioned around the treated body areas. This system is designed to increase blood circulation and emulate the lymphatic system starting from the feet and ankles to the upper thighs.

The compression suit allows precise presso-massage according to the settings on the control panel. All parameters can be adjusted: time, compression intensity, and compression patterns, and is a proven technology that positively affects the entire body with instant results. This treatment is versatile, and it works great with other body sculpting techniques This targeted compression allows precise tissue massage and increases blood and lymphatic circulation.

How it works

Pressotherapy is a medical and beauty treatment that promotes lymphatic drainage by using air pressure on various parts of the body. By alternating between compression and decompression, it effectively stimulates the flow of lymph, which carries metabolic waste and toxins out of the body. This therapy also stimulates the immune system and helps to speed up the body’s purging of toxins and waste.

The lymphatic system is a critical part of the body’s immune system. It is composed of a network of vessels and nodes that carry a fluid called lymph. Lymph is a clear fluid that originates as blood plasma leaked from the vascular system into the surrounding tissues. It contains a high number of lymphocytes, which are white blood cells involved in protecting the body from infection and disease.

When the lymphatic system is not functioning optimally, it can cause fluid retention, build-up of toxins, and various health problems. Pressotherapy is designed to stimulate the flow of lymph and promote optimal functioning of the lymphatic system.

In summary, pressotherapy enhances the body’s natural detoxification process, stimulates the immune system, and promotes a healthy lymphatic system by improving the flow of lymph fluid.

Technical & Medical overview.

Understanding Pressotherapy:

Positive Impact on Lymphatic Drainage:

One of the primary benefits of pressotherapy for patients with Lymphedema is its positive impact on lymphatic drainage. The rhythmic compression and decompression created by the inflatable sleeves help stimulate the lymphatic vessels, facilitating fluid movement from the affected area. This promotes efficient drainage and reduces the persistent swelling associated with Lymphedema

Reduction of Swelling and Discomfort

Pressotherapy has been shown to effectively alleviate the swelling and discomfort experienced by patients with Lymphedema. By enhancing lymphatic drainage, the therapy helps decrease fluid accumulation in the affected limbs, leading to a noticeable reduction in swelling.

Improved Circulation and Tissue Oxygenation:

The compressive action of pressotherapy devices not only targets lymphatic drainage but also enhances blood circulation. Improved circulation is crucial in delivering oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, promoting cellular health and tissue regeneration.
This is particularly beneficial for individuals with Lymphedema, as compromised circulation often contributes to the condition’s progression.

Enhanced Quality of Life

As pressotherapy addresses the physical symptoms of Lymphedema, it also positively impacts the psychological well-being of patients, by reducing swelling, discomfort, and the limitations imposed by the condition, pressotherapy contributes to an enhanced quality of life. Patients often report increased confidence, improved mobility, and a more remarkable ability to engage in daily activities, fostering a more positive outlook on their overall health.
