Compression therapy at JBS Clinic

Compression therapy, also known as a pressing therapy, is an effective, non-invasive and modern method of treating diseases of the venous and lymphatic system of the limbs. Specialized products, such as stockings, tights or knee-high socks, used in this form of therapy, exert controlled pressure that prevents blood stasis and the formation of clots, and at the same time improves blood circulation. Moreover, the pressure significantly reduces swelling and restores the natural shape of the limbs. It is also important to emphasize that this therapy has a significant impact on the healing process of ulcers.

Compression products are individually adjusted to the dimensions of the patient’s limbs, in accordance with the doctor’s recommendations. In our clinic, precise measurements are carried out by a qualified nurse, who then selects the appropriate product, taking into account both the size and aesthetic preferences of the patient.

Compression therapy is recommended primarily in the following cases:

• After phlobological and surgical procedures,
• In patients after thrombophlebitis,
• In case of swelling of limbs,
• After ulceration,
• In pregnant women,
• In people working in conditions of prolonged sitting or standing,
• In people overweight,
• When traveling by plane or a long car trip.

Patients often give up compression therapy due to difficulties in putting on compression products. In our clinic, a nurse will provide instructions on how to properly and efficiently put on these products. It is worth remembering that incorrectly applied and incorrectly selected compression products are ineffective.

In addition, we offer the possibility to buy or rent equipment to ease the fitting of compression products.

In the area of compression therapy, we cooperate with companies such as Medi Maxis, Aries ,Solidea, Juzo.
