For those looking to feel better, this supports your body’s ability to let go of physical or emotional stagnation and bring in revitalized energy to activate healing.
COMPRESSION THERAPY
Compression technology was first introduced to medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including circulatory conditions. About 25 years ago, compression was adopted for use in sport medicine to improve exercise performance and recovery. The cyclic pneumatic compression within Flowpresso® is delivered to different areas of the body to improve lymphatic drainage. Compression therapy helps encourage circulation within the body and assist with releasing toxins from your system.
HEAT THERAPY
Thermotherapy, or heat therapy can help with a variety of health issues. Flowpresso® utilizes thermotherapy in the four primary garment sections to embrace the body with a gentle, healing, warmth, creating a comforting environment that allows the body to finally rest and relax. The Flowpresso® warmth and temperature range are designed to encourage relaxation, promote circulation, and support an improvement in health and well-being.
DEEP PRESSURE THERAPY
Deep pressure is generally referred to as a form of tactile sensory input, which is delivered by holding, stroking, hugging, swaddling, and squeezing. The technique of Deep Pressure Therapy is often used to calm anxiety – improving one’s ability to cope. Flowpresso® applies deep pressure – similar to a hug – to the whole body through each individual chamber, generating a profoundly relaxing effect, allowing the body to calm and release the daily stress of life.
Nano Vibration Technology
A nano vibrational therapy disc is added to the FLOWpresso® bodysuit, situated near the neck during your treatment. Much like heartbeats and breathing rates, which are examples of physiological rhythms that we can see, feel and measure. Nano vibrations are vibrations that work on a smaller scale, interacting with the foundations and functions of your body at a more refined level through electromagnetic energy waves. This type of therapy changes your energy waves on a fundamental and structural level without being invasive.
The FLOW Experience
The FLOWpresso® experience is like no other, and we want to explain to you what you can expect.
You are fully clothed at all times, and will be assisted by a trained technician who positions you into the suit. While lying horizontally, your feet, legs, abdomen and arms are enclosed by the suit. You’re given an eye mask and noise cancelling headphones with soothing music to enhance the relaxing experience, which will last forty minutes.
The three types of therapy are activated and based on your feedback your technician will adjust the settings to accommodate your comfort levels.
The FLOWpresso® experience is slightly different for every individual. While some say it helps them feel light and refreshed, others say it leaves them de-stressed, rested and more in-tune with their body.
