Flowpresso®

What is Flowpresso®?

It’s a breakthrough, non-invasive natural therapy that enhances overall health which delivers a 3-in-1 sensory treatment comprising Compression, Thermotherapy, and Deep Pressure Therapy.

This unique combination of therapies releases toxins and puts the body into a ‘rest and restore’ state, working with our physiological processes to switch off fight or flight mechanisms, and facilitate healing and repair.

Our physiological processes

We have physiological processes that regulate the body’s involuntary reflexes, like heart rate, body temperature, breathing and blood pressure.  Regular periods spent in a completely relaxed state – as opposed to a fight or flight state – give our body the time and energy it needs to repair, rejuvenate and reset.

Flowpresso® is a unique system that encourages a rest and repair state – the optimum state for the body’s healing processes.

Flowpresso® therapies

Flowpresso® delivers compression, thermodynamic heat and deep pressure simultaneously to encourage the body’s inner systems to activate.

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 in an attempt to improve exercise performance and recovery.  The cyclic pneumatic compression within Flowpresso® is delivered to different areas of the body, allowing the body to change how it moves, helps encourage flow within the body and assist with releasing toxins from your system.

Thermodynamic therapy

Thermodynamic energy, or heat therapy can help with a variety of health issues.  Researchers discovered that when heat was applied to local areas or the whole body, it had a sleep-promoting effect.  Flowpresso® utilises thermotherapy in the 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 and sleep, promote circulation, and support an improvement in health and wellbeing.

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 anxious people – improving their ability to cope.  A light touch can be alerting and even agitating to some people, while deep pressure typically has a calming effect on the senses.  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.

NVT Therapy

Flowpresso® utilises nano vibrational technology to enhance the overall experience and combination of therapies.  It delivers a proprietary vibrations frequency, stimulated by the conductivity of body heat.  This technology has shown to increase energy flow and circulation within the body, whilst encouraging repair and restoration.
