An Ultimate Guide to Know about Air Compression Therapy Device

What is Air Compression Therapy?

Compressed air massage is a new treatment modality that uses air under pressure to massage skin and muscles. Air compression therapy can be used as part of weight loss and stress relief programs. Air Compression Therapy Device uses air pressure to stimulate blood circulation and expel toxins from the lymphatic system.

The working principle of the Air Compression Therapy Device is the air inflating and deflating the sleeve sequentially to develop the circulating pressure on the human body. Air Compression Therapy helps squeeze the proximal and distal limbs to promote blood circulation lymphatic system and improve body microcirculation.

What is DVT?

DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot in a vein, usually the leg. DVT can be dangerous. DVT may have characteristics such as pain, swelling, redness, or warmth of the affected area.

However, not everyone with DVT shows symptoms. But you should be careful when you have these symptoms:

  • Pain or soreness when standing or walking
  • Swelling of the legs or arms without warning
  • Warmth in the injured area
  • Enlarged veins
  • Your skin is red or blue

If blood clots break free and move through the bloodstream, the blood clots may get stuck in a blood vessel of the lung. It is known as PE (pulmonary embolism). DVT often leads to PE and PTS (post-thrombotic syndrome). Severe cases of these diseases significantly affect the quality of life and even lead to death.

The Importance of DVT Prevention

In the United States, PE has become the third leading cause of death after tumors and coronary heart disease. In France, the incidence of PE exceeds 100,000 cases per year, almost as common as myocardial infarction.

Clinically, only 10% – 17% of DVT patients have apparent symptoms. It includes swelling of the lower limbs, local deep tenderness, and dorsalis pedis flexion pain. The most severe clinical feature and sign of DVT development is pulmonary embolism. The mortality rate is as high as 9% – 50%. The vast majority of death cases die within a few minutes to a few hours. DVT is a disease with a high incidence rate. It should arouse people’s attention.
