Imene Fradi explains about VacuMed - Space Medicine, latest offering from Heka Healthcare

The Intermittent vacuum therapy IVT has its technological origin in space medicine. In the absence of gravity (weightlessness), astronauts in space must undergo negative pressure application in an LBNPD (Lower Body Negative Pressure Device) every ten hours to avoid orthostatic complications due to an insufficient baroreflex; this is the only way to ensure sufficient blood flow in the periphery. Intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) alternately applies negative pressure (vacuum) and positive pressure to the lower extremities. This physiologically causes rhythmic vascular dilation and vascular compression, through that naturally provoking and the flow in a purely physical way. The result: Blood circulation, capillarization and increase in venous and lymphatic reflux. Note MedEdge does not endorse any medical product.
