Pressotherapy: what do those air chambers do to your legs?
A simple explanation of the mechanism and questions worth asking before using it.

The image catches your eye: legs inside trousers connected to a controller. But what matters isn’t how it looks. It’s understanding what the device does, what to expect from it, and when you need advice before using it.
Compressing and releasing different areas
The device fills and empties air chambers according to a program. This creates cycles of external compression in different areas. It is not muscle exercise and does not replace movement. Understanding the mechanism helps you avoid mistaking the massage sensation for a promise to treat any discomfort.
What’s worth asking
Ask about sizing, coverage, controls, and precautions. Also ask how to get help with a question after purchase. A precise explanation of the product is more useful than a recommendation attributed to all physiotherapists: individual assessment remains important.
From the mechanism to a specific device.
What exactly is pressotherapy?
It is a sequential compression massage. The trousers have air chambers that inflate and deflate in different areas according to the selected program. Compression alternates with periods of release while you are sitting or lying down.
Its appeal at home is simple: you can fit that massage into some time to relax, without having to arrange a trip for each use. The experience varies from person to person. If you have a medical condition, persistent pain, or swelling, consult a professional before using compression.

Get your questions answered before reserving
How long does a session last, and how often should I use it?
Choose the program, duration, and frequency according to the device instructions and your healthcare professional’s guidance, where applicable. More pressure or more time doesn’t necessarily mean a better experience.
Is it suitable if I have significant fluid retention or a medical condition?
If you have significant fluid retention or another medical condition, consult your healthcare professional first. At-home pressotherapy is a wellness product, not a treatment.
How much would I pay per month with seQura?
For a price of €675, the seQura simulator shows 18 installments of €43.24, including the €5.74/month fee in each installment. You can also choose 3 installments of €225 with no fees. There are 6- and 12-installment options in the financing example. Choose seQura at checkout; the transaction is subject to approval and to the final terms shown before you confirm.
What does the Pro Max app do?
It connects to the device to control your session. You can also use the controller. On the standard Pro, the app offers recommendations but doesn’t control the device.
Will it fit me?
Measure your hip circumference: up to 120 cm without the extender and up to 130 cm with the included extender. If you’re unsure about the fit, check with the team before reserving.
What if I’m not satisfied?
The Pro Max comes with a 60-day return period. Check the terms and how to arrange a return with the Wellbeinn team.
