PRESSOTHERAPY Question: What is Pressotherapy ?

1. PRESSOTHERAPY Question: What is Pressotherapy? Answer: The Pressotherapy is a compression system designed to increase the venous and lymphatic flow and enhance extra-cellular fluid clearance. Question: How does the Pressotherapy equipment work? Answer: A computer-controlled pump inflates the individual sections of the multi- chambered garments, which are positioned around the limbs. The pump inflates each chamber of the garment individually. Once a chamber has been inflated, its pneumatic circuit closes. This enables the pump to maintain the preset level and avoid the balancing of pressure with the other chambers. When one chamber is inflated, this causes an increase in pressure of the previously inflated chamber, creating an Automatic Double Pressure Gradient. Question: Who should use Pressotherapy?
