How to use the device
Introduction to the technology
Pressotherapy is a useful method for treating diseases and conditions affecting
the circulatory system, as it is able to promote correct venous circulation,
reducing muscle tension caused by stress or chronic and acute pain. Thanks to
its pump action, it actually promotes venous return (see figure below),
increasing the blood supply of the tissues and their consequent correct
physiological renewal.
Pressotherapy is therefore able to solve the
problem of blood that could stagnate in
damaged blood vessels or in any case in
areas of the body that are not properly
supplied.
External compression also allows excess
interstitial fluids to return more easily to the
circulatory system, so that they can be
properly and quickly eliminated.
