Compressive Therapy

Compression therapy is of utmost importance within the therapeutic complex against lymphedema and congestion, but its independent use is also necessary in a number of cases. When manual lymphatic drainage and active exercises are contraindicated, it represents the leading therapy, for example, in the case of venous pathology.

Compression bandaging with special elastic bandages or wearing high-quality medical compression knitwear brings positive results, especially when performed by qualified specialists. Even high-quality compression knitwear can be damaging to the patient if used incorrectly.

At Therapie House, we use high-quality bandages from the German company Lohmann & Rauscher and standard medical compression hosiery from Ofa Bamberg for compression therapy.

In cases where the parameters of the patient's limbs exceed the sizes of standard knitwear, regular professional bandaging is necessary, followed by an order for custom-made (individual) knitwear.

Since it is impossible to manufacture such individual orders in Georgia, Therapie House specialists order custom-sized knitwear from Germany through our partner organization – MEDI.

This service is available only at Therapie House in Georgia! Since compression therapy also has certain contraindications, the diagnosis and treatment of any disease in the physiotherapy department of Therapie House are conducted by a physician, who evaluates the course and results of the therapy together with the physiotherapist.
