Lymphatic Drainage — Pneumatic Compression

Lymphatic Drainage at Body Factory Olomouc uses the Master 12000 pneumatic compression device, a clinical-grade system with 24 air chambers and five preset programs, to apply sequential pressure waves through the limbs and torso. Unlike manual lymphatic drainage massage, the Master 12000 delivers highly consistent sequential compression — inflating chambers from distal to proximal in an uninterrupted wave — that propels lymphatic fluid through the lymphatic capillaries and toward the central lymphatic ducts more reliably than hand massage alone. The treatment addresses venous and lymphatic insufficiency, heavy legs, post-exercise recovery, cellulite, and varicose vein prevention. Sessions of 30 or 40 minutes are available individually or in packs of five. The treatment can also be combined with Vacupress for a comprehensive 90-minute body-contouring and drainage session.

Lymphatic Drainage via pneumatic compression at Body Factory Olomouc uses the Master 12000 device — a 24-chamber sequential compression system with five preset therapeutic programs. The Master 12000 is positioned at the more capable end of the pneumatic compression market: 24 chambers (compared to the 12–16 typical of entry-level devices) allow finer-grained sequential progression, producing a compression wave that more closely mimics the natural peristaltic action of lymphatic vessel walls. The mechanism: the device inflates individual air compartments sequentially from the foot or ankle upward through the calf, knee, thigh, and hip, each compartment maintaining its pressure slightly longer than the previous to create a continuous fluid-propulsion wave. This sustained sequential inflation moves lymph and venous blood centrally far more effectively than sporadic or simultaneous compression. The subsequent rapid deflation allows each segment to refill before the next compression cycle begins. Therapeutic indications include venous insufficiency (pooling of blood in the lower limbs due to incompetent venous valves), post-surgical or post-injury lymphoedema management, prevention of varicose vein progression, chronic 'heavy legs' associated with prolonged standing or sedentary work, cellulite (where impaired microcirculation contributes to fat lobule distension), and accelerated recovery following athletic training. The five preset programs on the Master 12000 allow the treating professional to select a protocol calibrated to the client's primary indication — options include a general drainage protocol, post-exercise recovery emphasis, venous support, oedema reduction, and a combined lymphatic-and-vascular protocol. Sessions of 30 or 40 minutes are offered individually or in packs of five at a ~17% per-session saving. A combined 90-minute Vacupress + lymphatic drainage session is the most comprehensive body-care option in the studio's menu. The studio reports no documented contraindications for this treatment.
