Pneumatic Compression Therapy

At Revine Naturopathy, we offer a special treatment called Pneumatic Compression Therapy to help improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and make healing faster. This therapy is a gentle, non-invasive way to care for your arms or legs, especially if they are swollen or uncomfortable.

How Does Pneumatic Compression Therapy Work?

During Pneumatic Compression Therapy, you wear a special device, like a sleeve or a boot, that gently squeezes and releases your limbs. This gentle pressure mimics the natural movement of your muscles, which helps blood and lymph fluid move through your body. It works in cycles: first, it squeezes to push the fluids out of the tissues, then it releases so that your blood and lymph can flow freely. This process helps to:

1. Improve Circulation: By increasing blood flow, the therapy helps bring more oxygen and nutrients to the affected areas.
2. Reduce Swelling: The pressure helps drain excess fluid from swollen areas, relieving discomfort.
3. Promote Healing: By getting rid of extra fluid and waste, your body can heal faster, making this therapy great for people recovering from injuries.

Who Can Benefit from Pneumatic Compression Therapy?

Pneumatic Compression Therapy is very helpful for people who have conditions like:

• Lymphedema: Swelling caused by fluid build-up in the arms or legs.
• Venous Insufficiency: When blood has trouble moving through your veins, causing swelling and discomfort.
• Sports Injuries: Athletes recovering from injuries can use this therapy to reduce swelling and speed up recovery.

What to Expect at Revine Naturopathy?

At Revine Naturopathy, our trained therapists will help you through each session of Pneumatic Compression Therapy. Here’s what you can expect:
