Medical - Medical: Health Care / Body fat reduction

French term or phrase: dépresso-massages

In a document about a body fat reducing procedure:

L'adipocyte fragilisé (il peut doubler) aura donc tendance à subir une rupture de sa membrane si on le traumatise en lui faisant subir des contraintes physiques (action d'ultrasons spécifiques) et/ou mécaniques **(dépresso-massages)**.

The only Google references I can find are French and I can't seem to find an English equivalent - can anyone help please?
