Let’s move on to learn pressotherapy.
Pressotherapy
Pressotherapy is powered by Intermittent Compression Technology
- Pressotherapy, also known as lymphatic drainage massage, is a non-invasive treatment that’s powered by computer-controlled Intermittent Compression Technology.
- A pressotherapy treatment entails a rhythmic application of air pressure that alternates between compression and decompression.
- This pressure is delivered via a special Pressotherapy body suit which your client.wears during treatment and enjoys the inflating and deflating massage.
Pressotherapy Treatment Time
- Pressotherapy treatment time is flexible. You determine the amount of time.
- Because the Pressotherapy machine is computer-controlled and programmable.
- Treatments typically range between 30 minutes and 60 minutes.
- At our medspa, we perform a 50 minute treatment using an hour appointment time block.
PRO TIP: Speaking of treatment time, when you learn Pressotherapy you’ll discover:
- Not only is Pressotherapy hands-free, Pressotherapy can be a ‘set it and exit treatment.’
- Set it and exit treatments are treatments that require very little of your labor or your time to perform.
- With Set It and Exit treatments, you can (but don’t have to) get your client started, then leave the room to see another client or get some other tasks accomplished.
Pressotherapy Treatment Areas
Pressotherapy treatments can be customized to address each individual client's needs.
You can use Pressotherapy for overall lymphatic drainage assist or to target a problem area:
- Total body - legs, abdomen and arms (exclude breasts)
- Lower body (legs)
- Lower body and abdomen
- Abdomen
- Abdomen and arms
- Arms
Clients love Pressotherapy!

Why you should learn Pressotherapy:
It’s the body contouring alternative for manual lymphatic drainage massage
Pressotherapy offers the body contouring provider an alternative for the manual lymphatic drainage massage, which must be performed by specially trained licensed massage therapists or physical therapists.
And just like a manual lymphatic drainage massage, Pressotherapy treatments boost both blood circulation and lymphatic function.
Pressotherapy as a ‘treatment enhancer’ or stand-alone treatment
Pressotherapy is an integral lymphatic drainage assist tool that delivers enhanced results for your clients
AND
It’s also an effective stand-alone treatment to slim and restore health via its lymphatic boosting power.
Learn Pressotherapy: understand its importance for the body contouring professional
➡️ To appreciate the benefits of Pressotherapy, body contouring providers must understand the importance of lymphatic drainage and detoxification in maintaining well-being.
➡️ And especially understand why Pressotherapy’s lymphatic support is even more critical when it comes to non-invasive body contouring treatments.
Why is lymphatic detoxification so critical, especially for body contouring treatments?
I. Pressotherapy promotes wellness
Body contouring aside, the lymphatic detoxification that Pressotherapy provides delivers crucial health and wellness benefits.
Pressotherapy’s unique lymphatic drainage-promoting power leads to lymphatic detoxification, which provides the following benefits:
- Boosts the immune system
- Promotes good quality sleep
- Fights fatigue and increases energy levels
- Reduces bloating and improves digestive issues
- Reduce weight
- Promote weight loss
- Relief from aches and pains, headaches, muscle pain
- Produce a feeling of relaxation
II. Pressotherapy augments fat reduction, cellulite reduction and skin tightening treatments
Of utmost importance to body contouring professionals is the benefit of Pressotherapy’s lymphatic support after other body contouring treatments.
Body contouring and lymphatic drainage go hand in hand
Successful body contouring providers know that lymphatic drainage is inseparable from body contouring. That’s because body contouring treatments kill or damage fat cells, but it’s the client’s lymphatic system that must eliminate these substances from the body. If not, results cannot be seen.
Learn Pressotherapy for best body contouring results
Pressotherapy is the body contouring provider’s number one choice to accelerate and optimize results for body contouring treatments like cavitation, lipo laser, radiofrequency or cryolipolysis.
