Pressotherapy

Nearly 90% of esthetic leg problems and illnesses - roundness, thickened legs, heaviness and redness - are caused by veno-lymphatic stasis. To get the legs back in shape, it is imperative to reduce thestasis and combat the symptoms.

Pressotherapy aids local circulation, decrease swelling, muscle tension, stress, pain, dilates vessels, aids in venous return, increasees perfusion or the flow of blood in the tissues, provides a physiological replacement for the plantar pump, the muscle pump and the elastic activity of the vein wall. The column of blood is put in motion with no gaps in application of pressure and with no means of escape. This effect may solve the problem of static blood masses inside ectasic and damaged vessels. Compression from the outside also allows more excessive interstitial fluid to return to the circulatory system.
