PRESSOTHERAPY : Well-being within everyone's reach.
Pressotherapy has been present in the aesthetic field for about 15 years; it is a device that has enjoyed considerable interest and success: it infuses an immediate feeling of well-being, is easy to apply and gives excellent aesthetic results.
THE BENEFITS OF PRESSURE THERAPY
The principle is based on a physical action operating on the lymphatic and venous circulation allowing it to become more efficient, thus improving all those imperfections commonly found on the body: cellulite, water retention, dilation of blood vessels.
Pressotherapy, exerting pressure commensurate with the tissue, promotes drainage of interstitial fluid and solutes inside; it also activates the venous circulation, freeing the extracellular zone from the waste that cells constantly deposit there.
HOW PRESSOTHERAPY WORKS
The pressure is not developed simultaneously over the entire surface covered by the legs or segments, but according to a centripetal sequence that follows that followed by the venous blood and lymph. This pressure sequence favours the entry of the interstitial fluid into the lymphatic vessels and the circulatory system, and activates its natural pathway. Numerous devices can be found on the market, but in order to achieve results, it is essential to use artefacts with a pressure regulation that adapts to the subject's needs.
It is important to remember that applying higher pressures does not always correspond to greater effects and benefits: in fact, the maximum pressure exerted must not exceed the minimum arterial pressure, so as not to prevent oxygenated blood from entering the tissues.
EXAMPLES OF PRESSURE-THERAPY TREATMENT
Pressotherapy is often used to treat the lower limbs, an area of the body affected by circulatory problems, and is in any case indicated instead of manual massage.
Not recommended in the presence of varicose veins or phlebitis.
An ideal course of treatment involves 10 to 12 applications two to three times a week, with a periodic check-up and maintenance therapy tailored to individual needs.
This is why home therapy is often prescribed. The choice of pressotherapy devices available on the market can be divided into 2 categories: professional and home.
