Using a Pressotherapy machine isn’t just about turning it on—it requires proper preparation to ensure safety, comfort, and optimal results. Whether you're a spa technician or a home user, these pre-session steps help avoid errors and maximize treatment benefits. Here are the essentials to check before starting your Pressotherapy session:
| Preparation Task | Purpose | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Check machine connections | Ensure cuffs/tubes are secure and leak-free | Listen for air hiss or looseness before starting |
| Ask about health conditions | Avoid contraindications like DVT or infections | Use an intake form in spas |

Step-by-Step Instructions: How to Use the Machine
Once the client or user is ready, follow this step-by-step guide to ensure proper application and effective treatment. This process applies to most professional systems like our 3-in-1 air pressure and infrared machine, but always refer to your device’s manual.
| Step | What to Do | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Put on suit or leg cuffs | Wrap the cuffs snugly around the legs, waist, or arms | Ensures uniform pressure without gaps |
| 2. Select treatment mode | Choose "Lymphatic," "Slimming," or "Relax" based on goal | Adapts airflow pattern and duration |
| 3. Adjust pressure level | Set a comfortable intensity (start low for beginners) | Prevents discomfort and ensures safety |
| 4. Start session | Run for 30–45 min depending on program | Allows full lymphatic cycle to complete |
| 5. Monitor & check comfort | Ensure even pressure, no numbness or pain | Adjust if needed for optimal experience |
