Pulsation Therapy

Pulsation Therapy can be effective in managing oedema and pain, using small pockets of air, individually inflated and deflated, to cause a pulsation wave. The pulsation wave runs from the foot to the head of the mattress.

 

Clinical benefits

Improves blood flow

  • Pulsation Therapy improves capilliary blood flow, increasing oxygenation to the wound and skin

Encourages lymph flow

  • Lymphatics have little contraction ability in their own right and rely on movement to stimulate lymph flow
  • Pulsation Therapy mimics the body’s natural intermittent movements stimulating lymphatic flow
  • Reduction in oedema increases blood flow and reduces pain
