Instrumental Lymphatic Drainage

Treatment Classification: 

Treatment based on medical examination or consultation.

Treatment Character:

Instrumental lymphatic drainage acts on the lymphatic vessels and nodes using pressure waves. The device improves the function of veins and lymphatic pathways, and it is used for post-traumatic conditions and after intense muscle exertion.

Instrumental lymphatic drainage utilizes compressive sleeves. Inside these sleeves are chambers that inflate according to a preset program. At the same time, rules for setting the optimal pressure must be followed to ensure that the compression is sufficient without damaging the lymphatic system. When the sleeves inflate, they increase in volume, thereby exerting pressure on the muscles and promoting the activity of the lymphatic and vascular systems.
