What it is
A pressure-massage device that treats the affected limb through varying air pressure, delivered by a programmable sleeve — used alongside conventional physiotherapy, not as a replacement.
Where it fits
Rehabilitation programmes for lymphoedema, poor circulation, post-stroke and post-fracture recovery, and pain from slipped disc.
How it works
Vasotrain massages the affected limb through air pressure at varying levels, delivered by a programmable sleeve. The programme is chosen for the specific condition and adjusted to the patient's diagnosis.
The device sits inside a wider rehabilitation plan — used alongside conventional physiotherapy, not as a substitute for it.
When we use it
Vasotrain is included in the treatment plan for a range of conditions where circulation, mobility, or targeted limb massage form part of recovery:
- Swelling of the upper and lower limbs after lymphoedema, particularly post-mastectomy cases - Poor blood circulation in patients with diabetes - Mobility challenges in patients with paraplegia or quadriplegia - Stroke patients as part of the rehabilitation programme - Patients with osteoporosis - Recovery following cast removal in fracture cases - Back and limb pain in patients with a slipped disc
