Pressotherapy is a medical and beauty treatment that promotes
lymphatic drainage by using air pressure on ALL different parts of
the body. By alternating between compression and decompression, it
effectively stimulates the lymphatic system.
Air pressure Lymph Drainage is a relaxing and invigorating
compression therapy system, designed to help win the battle against
cellulite and body aging.A state of the art lymphatic drainage
massage system providing clients with spectacular results in a
short time.
It is used by professionals sports, medical and aesthetic clinics,
and medical spas. It markedly helps to treat cellulite and with
body forming.
Pressotherapy speeds up the blood circulation and metabolism by
using infra-red technology, this enables the dissolved fat to enter
into the blood and lymph fluid where it travels to be removed from
the body. Gentle air pressure promotes lymphatic system reflux and
finally drains the toxins out of the body. Pressotherapy will ease
any inflammation, promote regeneration and softens any unwanted
scar tissue.
Pressotherapy treatment is applied by means of trousers and a
jacket. A computer controlled compression system inflates
individual sections of a special 24 multi-chambered garment,
forcing toxins and fatty deposits into the circulatory system. This
enhances extra-cellular fluid clearance, increasing venous flow.
The toxins are then naturally flushed by the body through the
lymphatic system. It’s a great alternative to liposuction.

treatment. You can receive pressotherapy sessions to improve your
