Product Description
These leg wraps inflate and deflate to improve circulation, soothe sore muscles, and reduce swelling in your lower extremities. Similar to hospital compression boots that stimulate circulation in sedentary patients, the leg wraps have six airbags that wrap around the entire leg and inflate and deflate to help blood vessels expand and contract. The compression intervals stimulate circulation in the thighs, hamstrings, calves, and feet and help facilitate blood flow back to the heart. The corded remote allows you to select from three levels of intensity and choose from seven programs that pinpoint different areas and at varying intervals. Adjustable Velcro closures ensure optimal fit for all sizes.

Compression bandages and use
A bandage is a material that supports the body and allows you to heal. A compression bandage is somewhat different from the common dress, as used to put pressure on the area is healing. The pressure thus applied a number of functions performed. Prevents inflammation and edema. Increases blood flow and allows patients to better manage their condition.
Compression bandages are of two types.
Bandage short stretch compression: These dressings are commonly used in the extremities, like fingers and legs. They are generally used to treat venous ulcers, lymphedema, ulceration of the leg and even minor injuries. Short stretch compression bandages have a property enabling them to cut in, providing a constant pressure. Since the dressing is no longer pressure during periods of inactivity (which may cause an accumulation of fluid in the scope), these bands are very suitable for long-term healing. In addition, the design of the compression bandage is sufficient to withstand the pressure applied when a muscle contracts or IDPs. Thus, these adages prohibition can be used even when the patient is asleep, but it is not always desirable.
Long stretch compression bandages: As its name suggests, these bands can be applied over large areas as part of the leg. These bandages exert pressure on the rest area, but high pressure. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to eliminate these bands when the body is at rest. Compression bandages long section called because it can extend to almost three times its size. These tires are an important part of healing in many conditions, such as complex physical therapy, venous leg ulcers and lymphoedema. Patients need to wear long scope compression bandages when retrieving a condition to take care that the compression bandages at night because these tires are too tight to allow a comfortable sleep.

Some of the most important characteristics of compression bandages are elastic properties, pressure, components and layers. Compression bandages are prescribed in chronic therapy because they help to preserve elasticity of the skin, maintain the improvements that have been obtained by treatments such as massage therapy, remodel and maintain the shape of the limb adapted to different sizes between the different areas. For example, the bandage is wound around a piece the same way we take into account a restricted area.
Compression is generally recommended by doctors because they help reverse the accumulation fluid. They also increase blood flow through the venous system and increased fibrinolytic activity. Thus, compression is an important treatment for various conditions.
