How pressure therapy works

You wear a cuff with air chambers on your arm, leg or waist. The pump fills the chambers with air one after another, from the end of the limb upwards, then releases them – like a gentle, rhythmic massage.

  1. Gentle pressure – each chamber presses the tissue for a few seconds.
  2. Moves fluid towards the heart – lymph and venous blood move upwards, like the body's own muscle pump.
  3. Releases – the chambers empty and the cycle starts again.

With our pump you set the pressure (30–240 mmHg) and the session time (1–30 minutes), as advised by your doctor or physiotherapist.

How it can help you

Less swelling

Helps move away fluid that builds up in the tissues (oedema).

Lymphatic drainage

Used for lymphoedema of the arms and legs, alongside other treatments.

Better circulation

Supports blood flow back from the legs – for heavy, tired legs.

Clot prevention

For people who can't move much, when the doctor recommends it.

Recovery

After injury, training or a race – less muscle soreness.

Therapy at home

Sessions on your own schedule, without a clinic visit for every treatment.

Why pressure therapy helps – what the research says

Strong evidence Preventing clots after a stroke

In a large trial of 2,876 immobile patients in 94 hospitals, pressure therapy cut the risk of deep vein thrombosis by about a third and improved survival.2

Moderate evidence Lymphoedema after breast cancer

A review of 14 trials with 1,397 women: used for prevention, it lowered the risk of developing lymphoedema by about 64%. For lymphoedema that is already present, results were mixed – it works best alongside other treatments.1

Limited evidence Venous leg ulcers

Cochrane review (9 trials, 489 people): it may help ulcers heal more than no compression. It is unclear whether it adds benefit on top of compression bandages.3

Early evidence Recovery after exercise

A review of 17 trials in athletes: a small reduction in muscle soreness in the first hours, with little effect on performance.4

Is it right for me?

Pressure therapy is used on medical advice and with guidance from trained staff. Your doctor or physiotherapist sets the pressure, the session time and how often to use it.

Speak to your doctor first if you have:
  • an active blood clot (DVT)
  • heart failure
  • an infection or open wound on the limb
  • severe arterial disease

Frequently asked questions

What does a session feel like?

You feel the cuff squeeze gently in waves, from the bottom up, and then relax. It should not hurt – if it does, the pressure needs to be lowered.

How long and how often?

On the pump you set the session from 1 to 30 minutes. How often, and at what pressure, is decided by your doctor or physiotherapist.

Which cuff do I need?

The leg cuff for legs and feet, the arm cuff for the arm (e.g. lymphoedema after breast surgery) and the waist cuff for the abdomen and hips. We help you find the right size.

Can I treat both legs at once?

Yes, with two leg cuffs and the 4-outlet connector, if your doctor advises it.

Can I see the pump before buying?

Yes – visit our shop in Engomi or call 22 660688 and we'll show you how it works.
