What Is Pressotherapy?

Pressotherapy is a non-invasive compression treatment that uses specially designed air chambers to apply controlled pressure to different areas of the body.

The chambers inflate and deflate in sequence, creating a gentle compression and release effect.

This type of treatment may be used to:

  • Support circulation
  • Support lymphatic flow
  • Help reduce the feeling of heavy or tired legs
  • Support overall body comfort
  • Complement selected body and wellness treatments

The pressure and treatment approach can be adjusted according to the individual and the area being treated.

 

Which Areas Can Be Treated?

At MP Beauty & Laser, pressotherapy can be used on selected areas depending on the treatment protocol and your individual suitability.

Legs

A popular option for clients who experience a feeling of heavy, tired or uncomfortable legs.

Abdomen

Compression may also be used around the abdominal area as part of a suitable treatment protocol.

The treatment area and pressure settings are selected according to your individual needs.

What Can Pressotherapy Help With?

Pressotherapy may be particularly appealing if you experience:

Heavy or Tired Legs

Gentle sequential compression can provide a relaxing, massage-like sensation and may help your legs feel lighter and more comfortable.

Feeling of Fluid Retention

Pressotherapy may support circulation and lymphatic flow when you feel generally puffy or heavy.

Supporting Lymphatic Flow

The rhythmic compression is designed to encourage fluid movement through the treated area.

Supporting Circulation

The compression and release cycle may support healthy circulation in the treated areas.

Post-Treatment Body Wellness

Pressotherapy can also be incorporated into selected personalised body programmes alongside other non-invasive treatments.

Relaxation & Body Comfort

Many clients enjoy the gentle pressure as a relaxing addition to their regular wellness routine.

How Does Pressotherapy Work?

Pressotherapy uses a compression system containing multiple air chambers.

1. Consultation

We discuss your concerns, goals and any relevant health information.

2. Suitability Assessment

Your circumstances, medication, relevant medical history and previous treatments are considered before treatment.

3. Positioning

You are comfortably positioned and the compression equipment is fitted to the selected treatment area.

4. Sequential Compression

The air chambers inflate and deflate in sequence, applying controlled pressure to the treated area.

5. Treatment

The pressure is adjusted according to the agreed treatment protocol and your comfort.

6. Finishing & Aftercare

The equipment is removed and you receive any relevant aftercare advice.

Pressotherapy as a Standalone Treatment

 

You can book pressotherapy on its own if your main goal is to support circulation, lymphatic flow or general body comfort.

It can be particularly suitable as part of a regular wellness routine.

The treatment does not require needles or invasive procedures and you can remain comfortably positioned throughout the session.

Pressotherapy as Part of a Personalised Body Programme

Pressotherapy can also be incorporated into a wider treatment programme.

Depending on your individual goals and suitability, it may be combined with treatments such as:

  • EMS Body Treatment
  • Vacuum Massage
  • Wooden Roller Massage
  • Cavitation
  • RF Body Treatment

The combination is not fixed. Your treatment programme is selected according to your individual needs rather than automatically including every available technology.

How Often Should I Have Pressotherapy?

Treatment frequency depends on your individual goals and circumstances.

Some clients choose an occasional treatment when their legs feel heavy or tired, while others prefer to include pressotherapy as part of a regular wellness or personalised body programme.

The recommended frequency can be discussed during your consultation.

Is Pressotherapy Suitable for Everyone?

Pressotherapy is not suitable for everyone.

Before treatment, I will ask about your medical history, medication and any relevant health circumstances.

Certain medical conditions, circulation problems, acute inflammation, infections, pregnancy or other circumstances may mean that compression treatment is not appropriate.

If you have a medical condition or are unsure whether pressotherapy is suitable for you, please discuss this with an appropriate healthcare professional and contact me before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is pressotherapy painful?

Pressotherapy is generally experienced as a gentle compression treatment. You will feel the chambers inflating and applying pressure to the treated area.

The pressure should remain comfortable and can be adjusted according to the treatment protocol.

Is pressotherapy the same as lymphatic drainage?

Pressotherapy is a form of sequential compression therapy that may support lymphatic flow. It is not the same as manual lymphatic drainage performed by a specialist therapist.

Can pressotherapy help with swollen legs?

Pressotherapy may help support circulation and lymphatic flow and may be suitable when legs feel heavy or uncomfortable.

However, unexplained, persistent or sudden swelling should be assessed by an appropriate healthcare professional rather than treated cosmetically.

Can pressotherapy help with cellulite?

Pressotherapy is not a treatment that can guarantee cellulite removal.

It may be incorporated into a wider body treatment programme where the goal is to improve overall body appearance and comfort.

Can pressotherapy help with weight loss?

No. Pressotherapy is not a weight-loss treatment.

It is a compression treatment focused on supporting circulation, lymphatic flow and body comfort.

Can I have pressotherapy after another body treatment?

In some cases, pressotherapy may be incorporated into a wider personalised body programme.

The timing and combination of treatments will depend on your individual goals and suitability.

Can I have pressotherapy on my legs and abdomen?

Both areas may be suitable depending on the treatment protocol and your individual circumstances.

The appropriate treatment area will be discussed before your appointment.

How often can I have pressotherapy?

There is no single schedule that is right for everyone. Frequency depends on your goals, individual circumstances and the overall treatment plan.

Can I book pressotherapy on its own?

Yes. Pressotherapy is available as a standalone treatment as well as an optional part of a personalised body programme.
