What is compression therapy? When
you have a cut, what's one of the first things you do? You apply
pressure. Pressing gauze or a compress against the wound helps to
prevent blood loss and promote clotting, essentials for any serious
injury. While
compression is a common answer to a bleeding wound, open cuts are far
from the only medical problem that can be answered with this strategy.
If you are experiencing pain caused by arthritis or another chronic
condition, compression therapy could be a possible treatment to help you
find relief. Compression
therapy is the process by which pressure is applied evenly over a sore
or painful area, squeezing to support the veins. According to the
American Venous Forum, this type of treatment usually comes in the form
of tight stockings or socks that are worn during the day and removed at night. Though
it may seem counterintuitive, the pressure applied during this period
through compression doesn't slow blood flow – it increases it. The
improved circulation can help to promote healing and the pressure
prevents blood from pooling in the veins. This process can also reduce
swelling in the affected body part. As
suggested by the AVF, most compression therapy tools are made to be
worn by the user. Though they usually come in the form of socks or stockings, you
can also find shin sleeves, elbow sleeves and even masks that use the
same principles to help treat pain, swelling and other symptoms. These
wearable therapy aids are used in the treatment of many common chronic
conditions, including fibromyalgia, lymphatic diseases and overuse, but
perhaps the most common use of compression therapy is for arthritis pain
relief. Because
compression therapy can help to prevent the development of blood clots
it is often recommended for patients following surgery. The benefits of compression therapy Compression therapy offers a number of
benefits to your body. The most widely promoted, of course, is pain
relief. One of the ways that this is accomplished is through reducing
the swelling in the area, which can be especially helpful for aches and
pains. The increased circulation encouraged by compression therapy can
also promote healing and the heat can reduce stiffness. Compression
therapy can additionally help to prevent the development of blood
clots. Consequently, it is often recommended for patients following
surgery. If you have a condition that could benefit from compression therapy, consider trying a product from the IMAK® Compression line.
