Presotherapy for arms

When we talk about pressotherapy, we usually imagine a person wearing padded boots. Perhaps also in a girdle with the same aspect surrounding a large part of the trunk, but rarely do we visualize pressotherapy in the upper extremities.

Many people do not even know that there are pressure therapy sleeves for arms specially designed to work on that area, because the arms also deserve care and also suffer from lymphatic, circulatory or cellulite disorders. And of course, we also like to show them off in good shape, pretty and toned. How to achieve it? This is what we are going to see in this article, with a series of tips for you to take care of them, including pressotherapy for arms, from which you can benefit whether you are a woman or a man.

For whom is pressotherapy in the arms indicated?

First, you must evaluate the state in which your arms are. Some people who are considerably overweight or have a certain degree of obesity tend to have arms with a lot of excess skin and even stretch marks, the result of having undergone a strict weight loss program. Obviously, in such a case, pressotherapy is not a magic wand. Sagging like that can only be repaired by cosmetic surgery. This operation is known as brachioplasty.

Yes, you can use this treatment after the postoperative period, to oxygenate the tissues and tone the arms. Now, if you do not have this problem but you do have somewhat flaccid or swollen arms, pressotherapy for arms could help you greatly improve their appearance. And there is something else: you can also use pressotherapy for the lymphedema arm.

Lymphedema is a disorder of the Lymphatic System that can cause fluid accumulation in both the upper and lower extremities., being able to affect both or only one of them. Of course, before using any pressotherapy garment, including the arm sleeve, you must rule out certain contraindications:

• Heart failure or the use of a pacemaker
• blood pressure problems
• Renal insufficiency
• Deep venous thrombosis
• Considerable or morbid obesity
• Open or healing wounds
• Recent infections or burns
• Cancer or being treated for one
• hormonal imbalances

Presotherapy to treat cellulite on arms

Of course, we cannot forget that in addition to using pressotherapy to speed up the recovery of the arms after surgery or liposuction or to treat lymphedema, you can also use the presotherapy to treat cellulite in the arms. Cellulite in the arm is produced in the same way as in any other part of the body, due to an accumulation of subcutaneous fat. This is mostly concentrated around the biceps and makes the arm look flaccid.

Also, if we pinch in that area, we will see that it has the same “orange peel” appearance that appears on the legs or buttocks, due to exactly the same problem. And this not only makes the appearance of the arm ugly, but also makes it difficult for you to wear certain items of clothing, which can tighten in the area, making your arm look like a string of sausages. That's not how you want that t-shirt you love to feel like, is it? But do not be alarmed or despair, because arm cellulite is much easier to reduce or even eliminate completely, and without going under the knife.
