Can I do pressotherapy every day?

You already have a pretty clear idea about how Sizen Compression Therapy works and its benefits, but before buying your own device, you wonder: can I do Compression Therapy every day? Let’s answer this common question right away for those interested in this revolutionary therapy.

The first thing you need to determine is your needs. What is your purpose for using Compression Therapy? Are you more interested in its sports application, its aesthetic treatment, or even both at the same time? You should also know that depending on how often you use Compression Therapy, you will get more or less noticeable results. Frequency is important because if you are not more or less consistent, the results might not be entirely satisfactory.

How often should I use Compression Therapy?

It’s hard to answer this question precisely. Every body is different and we don’t all need the same thing, but you should consider:

• What is your goal? Reduce volume in localized areas, lessen the visible effect of cellulite (orange peel skin), address fluid retention, improve your sports performance, relieve muscle soreness…
• Have someone evaluate your physical condition to decide what treatment frequency you need. Consult a specialist—at any beauty center—or ask directly the seller of the home device you want to buy. A good Compression Therapy brand always offers excellent customer service with expert staff you can consult.
• It is very important that you do not have any medical condition for which Compression Therapy is contraindicated. If you still have doubts, ask your doctor if this treatment is suitable for you.
• What type of machine are you going to use? When it comes to Compression Therapy at home, there are many devices on the market but not all are equally effective. The machine's intensity is an important factor. Don’t be swayed by a price that’s too low. If it’s that cheap, don’t expect miracles, especially not in a short time.

“Home compression therapy devices are designed for more frequent use without any negative impact on health.”

So, is it harmful to use compression therapy daily?

First, let’s distinguish a professional machine from a home one. The professional machines used in centers and aesthetic clinics are the most powerful. They act more deeply and therefore with a professional machine, more than one or two sessions per week are usually not recommended. It is also important to remember that compression therapy reactivates blood and lymphatic circulation.

With a professional machine, this represents a strain on the body that is not advisable to subject it to daily. On the other hand, with a portable or home compression therapy machine, the treatment intensity is moderate, so if you wonder whether you can do compression therapy every day, the answer is YES. Home machines have less intensity but beware, this does not mean their treatment is less effective than that of a professional machine. Can I do compression therapy every day?

Simply put, a home compression therapy device is designed for more frequent use without any negative impact on health. The intensity of compression and decompression is lower, so you can use it daily. However, you will need to do sessions with some regularity in a row to start seeing results. Usually, all people who use a home compression therapy device and stick to their routine achieve their goal with satisfaction.

 

Let’s say these machines are semi-professional but offer all the benefits of any professional equipment. And of course, there are considerable advantages that only home compression therapy can offer you:

• You have the equipment available at all times without being tied to any schedule. Whenever you can or it suits you better, your equipment will always be there.
• A treatment frequently done at an aesthetic center several times a month is unaffordable for most people. It is a good option for a specific and intensive treatment, but compression therapy requires some maintenance. That’s why many people give up and get discouraged before achieving results that were truly worth it. The savings for your wallet are therefore huge even in the short term.
• A compression therapy device for home is easily portable. You can take it to the gym, your office, or when you go on vacation. You’ll no longer be able to say, “I didn’t do my sessions because I was away or far from a center.”
