This is a more professional topic, believe that a lot of people want scientific understanding. What are the taboos on the use of pneumatic compression boots?
I believe you will find the answer you want in this article.
Firstly, what are intermittent pneumatic compression devices?
Air compression recovery systems mainly form circulating pressure on limbs and tissues by repeatedly inflating and deflating multi-cavity airbags orderly. In the charging and discharging of air flow, blood flow can be performed on the legs and limbs of users. The compression system squeezes the distal end of limbs to the proximal end of limbs uniformly and orderly, which can promote blood flow and improve microcirculation. Accelerating the fluid backflow of limb tissues can help to prevent thrombosis and limb edema, and be able to directly or indirectly treat many diseases related to blood lymph circulation.
Our pneumatic compression devices can reach 250mmhg. But other compression recovery systems of other suppliers like Normatec or Therabody only can reach 50-100mmhg.
Of course, a completely popular compression boot system contains multiple accessories, like arm attachments, pants, and abdomen. But not all compression boots can meet this requirement. MAXTORC has boots, arms, pants, and abdomen for your selection. Arms, pants, and abdomen can provide different pressure levels but can not do medical-grade devices.
In simple terms, the pressure intensity of the intermittent pneumatic compression devices is to massage the legs. There are different massage modes and pressure intensities of sports recovery devices that can achieve the functions of beating and scraping and pushing.
What can compression therapy boots do?
The compression system can give your legs and feet a massage, and bring you faster recovery after strenuous exercise and a tough workout. The leg recovery system can increase blood flow and relieve muscle pain and reduce swelling. Intermittent pneumatic compression devices can greatly reduce lactic acid formation, which will ensure that you don’t feel muscle soreness the next day.
In addition, the pneumatic compression device accelerates blood circulation through passive and uniform massage. The popular compression boot systems can accelerate the absorption of inflammatory factors and metabolic wastes in blood. It also can strengthen the oxygen content of limbs and prevent muscle atrophy, which is helpful to solve diseases resulting from blood circulation disorders.
At the same time, the leg recovery system can promote metabolism, help you with metabolic waste, and keep your body in good condition at all times.
Maxtorc’s massage technology was developed by our physical therapy offices, using three developed technologies to better enhance the recovery mode of human body function. Our pneumatic compression device helps your system increase blood flow to certain areas.
The induction effect of dynamic delivery can more fully pneumatic compression of the calf or forearm muscles, which can significantly improve the flow of body fluids and metabolites from the limbs after vigorous exercise.
How about the effect of compression recovery boots?
Compression recovery boots are a kind of gradient pneumatic compression boots. It mainly promotes venous backflow of lower limbs through the effect of gradient pressure and relieves local swelling, acid swelling, weakness, numbness, heaviness, and other feelings caused by venous diseases of lower limbs.
It is of great significance to the treatment of some chronic lower limb venous diseases, and its effect has been affirmed by many clinicians and patients.
The role of compression recovery boots in the treatment of lower extremity venous diseases has been written into the international guidelines, and the compression system is an important part of conservative treatment.
Pneumatic compression boots can not only treat simple varicose veins of lower limbs but also treat chronic lower limb diseases such as deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs, venous insufficiency of lower limbs, venous valve deficiency of lower limbs, venous ulcer of lower limbs, etc. Therefore, recovery boots play an important role in venous surgery and lower limb venous diseases.
What are the taboos of air compression boots?
Compression recovery boots are not recommended except for children under 10 years old but can be used for other age groups.
People with leg ulcers, burns, or peripheral vascular disease had better not use our dynamic air compression boots, which may cause skin breakdown. Older people may be more at risk for skin breakdown. So it is recommended for the elderly not to use air compression boots for more than half an hour each time.
However, no matter what kind of massager, ordinary massager, special massager, air wave massage chair, etc., should be used moderately.
Do not incinerate the discarded battery of our compression recovery boots. It will explode in a fire.
Do not use the charger near sinks or bathtubs or immerse in water. The charger should be placed away from sinks and hot surfaces. And don’t use another charger to charge this device, because another charger may make the battery explode.
Use a wet cloth (water only) to wipe the surface of the control unit. Do not use gasoline, alcohol, benzene, etc. to wipe the pump.
Conclusion of choosing the most suitable recovery compression boots for yourself
First
choose the right size according to your height and weight ;
Second
choose the basic version or the professional version according to the intensity of your fitness;
Third
Operate our air compression boots according to the instructions in the instruction manual. If you have any questions, please consult the sales consultant in time to avoid injuries caused by improper use.
Finally, certification is very important. As a high-value medical fitness product, it is responsible for users to have the corresponding certification. As far as I know, some suppliers will provide 510K certifications, which is a very professional medical certification.
