Pressotherapy at home

Why do we offer to buy a device for home pressotherapy? Everything is extremely simple.

Firstly, it is convenient - you do not have to travel anywhere to undergo a lymphatic drainage massage procedure. Pressotherapy is carried out in courses, not once. Now imagine that you will have to go for a massage from 1 to several times a week: waste time on the road, pay for it, for the massage, and again stand in traffic jams to get home. Not a very pleasant prospect.

Secondly, it costs much less than having it done in a specialized salon. A one-time purchase will be much more profitable than regular trips to the salon.

And thirdly, this hardware massage is much more effective than manual massage.

By purchasing one pressotherapy device, you are making a gift not only to yourself, but also to your loved ones. After all, no one prohibits the use of one device for all family members.

Preparing for the press massage procedure

It is important to follow simple rules of press massage so as not to harm the body:

do not eat or drink 2 hours before the procedure;
take a shower or bath, but do not steam your skin too much;
the pressotherapy suit should be worn on a dry body and thin clothing, and salons provide a disposable set that is worn under the suit.

During the treatment period, you must eat a nutritious diet and drink enough clean water for your weight. Combination with physical activity will increase the effectiveness of treatment.

During pressotherapy you need to drink a lot of water

The duration of the procedure is 30-45 minutes. For a lasting effect, experts recommend repeating the course after 6 months.

LymphNorm Smart

The first device that we will look at today will be LymphaNorm Smart.

This is an entry-level pressotherapy device. Thanks to the combination of several programs and a minimal price, it is suitable for home use.

Description

I will not describe all the technical characteristics of the devices in this article. I will tell you only the most important things you need to know.

Pressure

A very important characteristic is the pressure supplied to the cuff. Many people think that the greater the pressure, the greater and better the effect. Things are not quite like that. In some cases you need very little pressure, in others more. It all depends on the case - for a healthy person, the best pressure is from 90 to 130 mmHg. Art.

The LymphaNorm Smart device has a pressure range of 50-200 mmHg. Art., which allows you to work not only with completely healthy people. Pressure adjustment is carried out in stages - 4 power levels.

Operating modes

This device has several operating options.

The first is manual, or manual. The massage area, that is, the cuff chamber, changes each time the “Point” button is pressed.

The second is mode A - stepwise pumping of air into the chambers from the foot to the body (in other words, from the bottom up). First, the first chamber is inflated, then it is deflated, after which the same thing happens with all the other chambers.

The third - mode B - stepwise pumping of air into the chambers from the body to the foot. Everything is the same as in the case of mode A.

Indications for use:

weak skin tone

chronic fatigue

insomnia

weakness, fatigue

state of stress

restless legs syndrome

Contraindications:

thrombosis and thrombophlebitis

acute inflammation and suppuration of the skin

menstruation and pregnancy

liver and kidney diseases

fractures and injuries

cardiovascular insufficiency 2 and 3 degrees

What should you pay attention to before purchasing a pressotherapy device?

The pressotherapy apparatus is extremely simple and consists of the following parts:

suit for pressotherapy procedures;
air ducts - air hoses that connect the compressor through a valve system to the suit;
the device itself, inside of which there is a compressor, valves, and an electronic control board.

I. Pressotherapy suit

is one of the most important parts of the device and is subject to strong mechanical stress. As a result, it is the one that most often deteriorates and does not allow stable operation. When choosing a device, first of all, pay attention to what material the suit is made of: it should be strong enough and should not crack at the points of kinks and connections with air hoses.

Costumes come with different numbers of sections. By their number one can judge how much the pressotherapy device is intended for professional work. The more sections, the more effective the procedure will be, since this allows you to better work out all areas of the body and creates optimal pressure in the affected areas for a lymphatic drainage effect.

Please note that a good suit consists of an outer part and an inner part. Such a suit, if damage to the outer shell occurs, continues to perform its functions. If the inner shell is damaged, it is enough to replace the non-working plastic section - and the device is again ready for procedures. Owners of devices with suits that have only one shell will be forced to change the entire suit, and its price may be 25-30 percent of the cost of the entire device.

Also, the suit should consist of several parts, which is very convenient when working, since such a suit is easier to put on and adjust to the height of each specific client. In addition, such a suit is easier to fold and put away.

II. Air ducts

should be quite wide and elastic. If the ducts are thin, hard and brittle, they will quickly deteriorate and begin to leak air.

In order to quickly inflate the suit, it is necessary to pump fairly high pressure into the air ducts. If they are thin, this pressure needs to be increased even higher, otherwise the suit will inflate too slowly and there will be no lymphatic drainage effect. As a result, such an air duct will quickly break. This will most likely occur at the junction with the suit. Thin air ducts indirectly indicate that plastic valves are installed in the device body, since it is technically impossible to make a large hole in such valves.

There are devices in which you need to attach air hoses

. This is very inconvenient to work with, and the specialist spends a lot of time on this procedure. The connections between the hoses and the suit will also wear out quickly during such manipulations.

III. Pressotherapy device

may have
one or two compressors
. Two compressors are installed in the most advanced professional models. This design allows you to very quickly pump air into the cuffs and carry out lymphatic drainage at a speed that is inaccessible to other devices.

Each pressotherapy device has valves

, which allow air to pass through and switch its injection between sections. The number of valves in the device ranges from 4 to 24. Please note that plastic valves have a small diameter and cannot allow the required volume of air to pass through. In addition, they are unreliable and quickly fail. Devices with metal valves can withstand heavy loads, and they can be connected to air tubes of sufficient diameter to allow a large volume of air to pass through.

Electronic control board

is responsible for software and determines the number of programs, their complexity and efficiency. The cuff inflation mode is very effective in pressotherapy procedures. Many devices inflate the cuff completely, with uniform pressure on the body tissue from all sides. There are devices that use a more physiological mode of cuff inflation, creating compression first on the lower areas, and only then, gradually, on the upper ones. This massage is very physiological and resembles the work of a massage therapist.

Often such devices allow you to repeat massage movements in one area, as massage therapists do when they squeeze the lymph from the bottom up. This mode is called modulation. All these programs are determined by the electronic control module or control board.

LymphNorm Relax

The LymphaNorm Relax device is designed to improve the functioning of the cardiovascular system, prevent venous stagnation not only in healthy people, for weight loss and relieve swelling.

Description

LymphaNorm Relax is an excellent solution for those who really need a lymphatic drainage device, but not a complicated one (although in my opinion, all devices in the LymphaNorm line are easy to understand and easy to control).

With this device you can easily relax, relieve excess tension and even remove swelling of the body.

Pressure

This device has similar pressure readings to LymphaNorm Smart, but still slightly different. 50-250 mm Hg. The pressure is adjustable in 4 power levels.

Operating mode.

Mode A – sequential. When you turn on the device, this mode starts by default. The standard procedure time is 15 minutes.

Mode B – lymphatic drainage. Sequential pumping of air into the chambers followed by maintaining pressure.

The modes also have submodes, which are described in the instructions for use.

Indications for massage:

venous insufficiency

weakened blood circulation

diseases of our skeleton (no, no. Not the one in the closet)

swelling of various types

figure correction

cellulite

insomnia

weakness, fatigue

after physical activity

restless legs syndrome

after liposuction

prevention of thrombosis

Contraindications:

heat

acute venous thrombosis

fractures, dislocations and sprains

malignant tumors

high blood pressure

presence of a pacemaker

any acute conditions of the skin, individual organs or the body as a whole

The essence of press massage

Lymphatic drainage pressotherapy

– this is a real breakthrough in cosmetology, when by acting on a visual problem, more serious issues can be solved. The essence of the technique is to activate the processes of fat breakdown.

The reason for the appearance of excess weight is stagnation of fluid in the subcutaneous layer.

Why pressotherapy is useful:

removes excess fluid;
promotes high-quality blood and lymph circulation in tissues and vessels;
nutrition is supplied to the skin, its structure is restored

During the massage, each given area is delicately worked on. Sections of the cuff are compressed alternately, forming a single wave. This action stimulates lymph exchange and rejuvenates the body's cells. Experts recommend the use of anti-cellulite cosmetics during massage - this way the effect of creams increases significantly.

Press massage – what is it?

After the session, the patient experiences vigor, relief from spasms, and relaxation.

LymphNorm Prior

Third on the list is LymphaNorm Prior. This device is designed for pressotherapy, as a result of which mood improves, muscle tone increases, skin tightens, swelling and cellulite go away (stretch marks, bye for you too).

Description

This is a super choice for home use. You can put it in the room and do massages before bed, for example. If you decide to go on a trip, it will become an excellent assistant, because it weighs almost nothing.

It is also very convenient to use in the dark thanks to the backlight of the screen. Another undoubted plus is that it suits almost everyone.

Pressure

The pressure in this device is standard: 50-250 mm Hg, it is regulated in the same way - in 4 power levels. In general, there are no special differences from the previous ones in this aspect.

Operating mode

But it’s clearly in the works. LymphaNorm Prior has 3 basic programs and 1 automatic. There are also subroutines.

Mode A – sequential upward massage. This means that the chambers are sequentially inflated and deflated from bottom to top.

Mode B – alternately ascending or descending massage. Each chamber is inflated one at a time and then all 4 chambers are deflated. Air supply can be carried out both from bottom to top and from top to bottom.

Mode C – pulsating massage. Simultaneously inflating all chambers, holding air there for a certain time and then deflating all 4 chambers.

And auto mode. It is recommended to use this mode after using mode A.

Indications:

lymphostasis and lymphedema

body swelling

cellulite and stretch marks

excess weight and local skin deposits

after liposuction

arthritis and arthrosis

postpartum period

recovery after operations and injuries

prevention of thrombosis

stress

skeletal diseases

chronic venous insufficiency

Contraindications:

thrombosis and thrombophlebitis

acute heart failure

heat

any acute conditions

menses

Development mechanism

The formation of cellulite occurs in stages:

first - latent accumulation of fat without visual manifestations, but with disruption of blood and lymph flow, tissue hypoxia, which forces cells to feverishly compensate for oxygen deficiency by grabbing everything that comes to hand, so the volume of adipose tissue grows. Sometimes mini-hematomas and spider veins may occur;
the second stage is visually noticeable: the relief of the skin changes, when the skin is stretched, bumps and indentations are clearly visible: lipogenesis (accumulation of fats) is activated, lipolysis (the breakdown of fats) is inhibited. The hypodermis is filled with toxins and waste, connective tissue fibers grow and thicken, cells swell and increase in volume;
the third stage is characterized by lumpy skin even in a relaxed state: bulky lipocytes put pressure on nerve endings, cell sensitivity increases, and tissue metabolism is disrupted. Result: complete paralysis of metabolism in the cell;
The fourth stage is observed with advanced cellulite: the skin is thick, lumpy, painful when pressed, nodes of varying sizes are palpable, areas of microvaricose veins form around.

LymphNorm Control

Finally, we have reached our last device on this list. You can exhale and inhale again, because this is a bomb!

Description.

LymphaNorm Control can be used both at home and in the salon. This is one of its main differences from other devices in this line. Control is as close as possible to Israeli devices, which are considered the standard.

The body is made of durable plastic, which is also used for the manufacture of professional models.

This device has the ability to set the procedure time from 1 to 95 minutes.

Another significant plus is the presence of a control panel. You no longer have to bend over or reach for the main device; just press the corresponding key on the remote control. It is also very convenient in clinics, sanatoriums or beauty salons. You can remotely control the pressure, procedure time and operating mode.

Pressure.

One of the greatest advantages of this device is the ability to regulate pressure in small increments, namely in increments of 5 mm Hg. Art. This is especially important if there are health problems, when a lot of pressure can be harmful, and a little pressure will be insufficient. The minimum pressure is 30 mm Hg, and the maximum is 220 mm Hg.

Operating mode.

Manual, or manual, has 10 types of settings.

Mode A – enhanced massage.

Mode B – lymphatic drainage.

And mode C – softening and kneading massage.

Let's sum it up

What can you say in conclusion?

Choosing a device is a difficult task; it is important to understand why you need it. Relaxation – Smart and Relax, removal of swelling – Relax and Prior, all at once – Control.

The devices we talked about today are 4-chamber. The number of cameras in the LymphaNorm line was not chosen by chance by the manufacturer. This number of chambers in the cuffs, namely 4, optimally covers the areas necessary for massage and minimizes the number of “weakly worked” areas. Professional devices for pressotherapy, which are used in clinics, also have 4 cameras in the accessories. There are also 6 and 12 chamber devices, but we will talk about them in another article.

It is important to know how to use the devices correctly:

do not set the pressure too high
consult with a specialist
and the most important thing! Give a massage in a good mood

We wish you good health and extraordinary beauty!

Purpose of the procedure

The physiotherapy device is used for only 45 minutes. During the procedure, the patient must be in a supine position. In addition to the suit, a person is wearing additional segments with compressed air, their number may vary depending on the configuration. This whole “outfit” effectively affects problem areas.

Initially, a lymphatic drainage device was used to treat problems with varicose veins. Often the procedure was prescribed as a restorative therapy after removal of fat deposits (liposuction). Later its beneficial effects on the skin became noticeable. Pressotherapy is now widely used to combat cellulite due to its proven vasodilating effect. It is prescribed in combination with a wrap. After several sessions, the first effect is noticeable.
