Device-assisted lymphatic drainage massage, pressotherapy, and pneumatic massage are methods of mechanical influence on the lymphatic system with compressed air delivered through special cuffs. Excess extracellular fluid is moved out of the tissues of the treated areas, which promotes lymphatic drainage and stimulates blood circulation.

At our full-cycle medical center, you can take a course of pressotherapy on a modern 12-channel BTL-6000 LYMPHASTIM 12 TOPLINE device with advanced pressure gradient settings and the option to switch off one or several sectors.
