What is it?

​

  Pressotherapy is a modern, effective and painless lymphatic drainage method with a strong therapeutic effect in the treatment of cellulite and fatty deposits in the body.

 

 

​

How is done?

​

  Pressotherapy is a computer-controlled compression system, which operates using inflating pumps combined with infrared heat. The device has five separate chambers, which are positioned around the limbs. These chambers will fill with air and pressure designed to simulate a deep massage, from the toes upwards and then back and forth.  The focus is on moving the venous and lymph flow, starting from the ankles and moving to the upper thighs. Designed to increase blood circulation and lymph flow, pressotherapy enhances extra-cellular fluid clearance, reduces bloating, swelling and edema, alleviates leg fatigue and improves oxygen flow through the whole body.
