What is pressotherapy?
Pressotherapy is a technique for blood circulation enhancement, lymphatic massage and
cellulite reduction. It is provided by special equipment that comprises inflatable boots
(or arm sleeves) that rhythmically inflate and deflate in order to pump lymph in the
lymphatic vessels and blood in the veins of the legs (or arms) towards the heart.
It is also known as alternate compression therapy or pneumatic compression therapy.
It is a mechanised lymphatic drainage technique that fights water retention by applying intermittent
compression on one or more parts of the body - typically the legs. Stomach and arm
What is Manual lymphatic drainage and compression garments?
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a very light lymphatic drainage massage technique that
was developed in the 1930s. It is especially gentle and thereby very well suited to very weak, fragile
or sensitive individuals and is the only technique suited to patients that had their lymph glands
removed after cancer. However, this technique is not nearly as effective in healthy women
(i.e. 95% of women) as pressotherapy
With the low pressure differential of anything between 7 and 15mmHg ,this pressure differential
is too mild to offer any significant lymphatic drainage benefits with a Compression garment.
Actually, it can make cellulite worse, as they deprive the tissues of mechanical stimulation
necessary for collagen cell (fibroblasts) productivity.
How does pressotherapy work?
The air is automatically pumped into pneumatic chambers of the boot. The Machine can apply
a pressure that reaches 100mmHg or even 120mmHg.With this strong pressure ,the machine
can automatically adapt the patient's blood pressure and help all parts of body do the deep lymphatic
drainage massage ,then enhance blood circulation . If you use a good anti-cellulite cream,
it will add to the results of the treatment.
What is far infrared heat therapy ?
Far Infrared Heat Therapy generates heat from far infrared rays.
When the temperature reaches 70 degrees, the energy will infiltrate into 4cm to 7cm deep of
the muscle and skin, it can fully dissolve the surplus grease to achieve the purpose of keeping
your body slim. At the same time it also can beautify your skin by helping heal scars, wounds,
and cuts, reducing the appearance of crow's feet, fine lines, and wrinkles.
How does far infrared heat therapy work in human being?
Far infrared rays are rays that promote bioprocess such as increased metabolism and blood
Circulation, and can raise core body temperature.
Far infrared rays heat our body by a process called conversion. Through conversion, Far infrared heat can penetrate organic substances such as the human body without heating
the air in between, and increase the levels of oxygen and white blood cells in your blood.
Far Infrared Ray-induced heat is harmless, comfortable, targeted and deep penetrating. It is
an effective way to strengthen immunity and improve blood flow, which eases muscles spasms,
rehabilitates movement impairment, alters the sensation of pain and promotes tissue repair.
Advantages of Far Infrared Heat Therapy
By using far infrared heat as opposed to traditional heating methods Sauna, you enable the
heat to penetrate deeper into your body without the skin discomfort of heating pads, hot towels,
and some pain relief gels/creams.
Only if the sauna uses far-infrared technology, the sauna might be more tolerated by patients
who don't tolerate the high
temperatures of the standard humid hot air saunas. This is because far-infrared rays do not heat the air inside the sauna, but they still heat the body
Difference of skin temperatures between non-infrared processing
What are the benefits of Far Infrared Heat Therapy?
Far infrared therapy provides two factors that are essential for good health: cellular detoxification
and good circulation. The health of the whole system depends on the movement of blood and
energy throughout. Detoxification and good circulation result in adequate exchange of nutrients
into cells, reduced inflammation, loss of excess weight.
What’s more, Far-infrared heat therapy penetrates deep into soft tissue, making it can ideal source
of arthritis pain
relief .You will benefit from an effective means of loosening sore muscles and still joints without the
use of ointments or creams that can burn and have an unpleasant odor. Those who suffer from
rheumatoid arthritis, ALS, Lou Gehrig’s Disease and Parkinson’s Disease can enjoy an easy
useful form of pain relief .
