Pressotherapy for sports
How to use it
GLOBUS pressure therapy devices are easy to use. Simply put on the dedicated accessories according to the body area to be treated and connect them to the device.
With GLOBUS pressure-therapy products you will be able to treat two (upper or lower) limbs and the abdomen at the same time, thanks to the double connectors, to increase the effectiveness of the treatment and reduce the application time.
Types of compression
The sleeves inflate individually, following a disto-proximal movement. This type of compression, known as peristaltic compression, is particularly effective for muscle relaxation, both after training and at the end of a working day.
As one chamber inflates, the previous one gradually deflates, repeating this process for all chambers.
This action also helps reduce swelling caused by muscle microinjuries and water retention.
The sleeves inflate in pairs, following a disto-proximal movement. As one pair of chambers inflates, the previous pair begins to deflate, keeping two chambers inflated at all times.
This type of treatment, which uses peristaltic compression, is particularly indicated for the prevention of venous ulcers, chronic venous insufficiency and other circulatory disorders.
The sleeve chambers inflate individually in the disto-proximal direction, remaining inflated when moving to the next chamber.
This type of compression is called sequential and is used as a true therapy, as in the case of lymphoedema, as it allows the reabsorption and outflow within the lymphatic and venular pathways of the liquid component of the oedema.
