Flow Compression Therapy (intermittent vacuum therapy)
This space technology was originally developed to make walking easier for astronauts after their return from space and was further developed for the general public. Connective tissue tightening, detox, regeneration, prophylaxis for sports injuries and much more make intermittent vacuum therapy an ideal complement to a whole-body cold application.
Alternating pressure massage
The intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) with the space tube serves to promote lymphatic return, detoxification, skin and connective tissue tightening, vascular training and acceleration of recovery.
- Intermittent vacuum and compression therapy improves circulation, oxygen supply and venous return.
- The passive training of the Flow System rhythmically stimulates circulation and lymphatic flow in the lower body. Without physical effort, the body enters a state of deeper recovery and overall physiological balance.
Function
The physical principle of the treatment is the intermittent application of negative pressure (vacuum) to the lower half of the body. The negative pressure phases lead to capillary dilation, capillarisation and improved circulation. The normal pressure phases lead to increased venous return and direction-controlled lymph flow activation.
Application areas
Four programmes with clear goals
Body Forming
Skin and connective tissue tightening.
Recovery (athletes' programme)
Faster recovery after training, multiplication of capillary vessels, rehabilitation after injuries.
Vascular Training
Reduction of congestion, prevention of spider veins and varicose veins.
Vitality
Lymphatic drainage, detox, promotion of circulation, venous decongestion, relaxation, NO release.
