What is compression therapy?

TAKE AN OPTIMAL APPROACH TO YOUR SURGICAL PROCEDURE.

Compression therapy enhances blood flow using specially designed garments. It’s particularly effective for people who want to speed up their recovery from injuries and surgeries, as well as those with chronic conditions that cause swelling in their limbs. Compression stockings are often used during recovery periods because they prevent venous stasis (the pooling of blood in your legs) by increasing circulation and reducing inflammation. They can also help alleviate symptoms associated with venous insufficiency, including fatigue, swelling, pain, and heaviness. Hydrology Wellness® offers Ballancer Pro in Miami to help you achieve the benefits of compression therapy throughout your entire body. For plastic surgery patients, this advanced therapy can help you enjoy an easier recovery no matter what area of your body has undergone surgery.

HOW CAN IT HELP YOU BEFORE AND AFTER SURGERY?

Compression therapy is an effective way to decrease inflammation, pain, and muscle spasms. In addition to increasing blood flow, compression therapy reduces a patient’s perceived level of pain by alleviating stress on skeletal muscles. To reduce swelling before or after plastic surgery in Miami, consult with one of our skilled and experienced medical professionals at our Miami Wellness Center, Hydrology Wellness®. Compression therapy is an excellent option for plastic surgery patients. Increased blood flow before and after surgery can greatly contribute to optimal preparation and recovery by reducing the risk of blood clots and decreasing swelling and inflammation.

1. Improved Circulation

The Ballancer Pro uses pneumatic compression to aid in improving blood circulation. The sequential compression and release actions help stimulate blood flow, which can benefit individuals with circulation issues.

2. Reduced Edema and Swelling

The device can effectively reduce edema (fluid retention) and swelling in various parts of the body. By applying sequential pressure, it assists in moving excess fluid from the limbs, potentially providing relief from swelling.

3. Enhanced Lymphatic Drainage

The Ballancer Pro aids in lymphatic drainage, assisting the body’s natural process of removing waste and toxins. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with lymphatic system issues or conditions like lymphedema.

4. Muscle Recovery and Relaxation

Athletes and individuals recovering from intense workouts or physical activities benefit from the Ballancer Pro. Its compression and release cycles can help reduce muscle soreness, aid in muscle recovery, and promote relaxation.

5. Post-Surgical Recovery

Ballancer Pro is used in post-surgical care to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and assist in the healing process after various surgical procedures.

6. Cellulite Reduction and Body Contouring

Ballancer Pro can assist in reducing the appearance of cellulite and improving body contouring. The device’s sequential compression helps in stimulating circulation and redistributing fluids, which contribute to these effects.

7. Relief from Heavy Legs and Fatigue

Individuals experiencing heavy legs or fatigue due to prolonged sitting or standing may find relief through the Ballancer Pro’s compression therapy, as it helps improve circulation and reduce discomfort.

8. Customizable Treatment Options

The Ballancer Pro offers various program options and adjustable settings, allowing for personalized treatment tailored to specific needs, such as varying pressure levels and targeted areas.

FOR PRE AND POST-OP PATIENTS

If you have any upcoming surgeries or frequent injuries that require recovery time, compression therapy might be something you should consider. It’s an effective way to increase your blood flow before and after these types of events—and it can help reduce swelling, too. Compression therapy is often used by athletes as well as people who are bedridden or have limited mobility. It’s especially useful for those with circulatory issues like varicose veins, leg swelling from sitting too long, and other conditions related to poor circulation.
