The Technology
What Is Flowpresso?
Developed in New Zealand, Flowpresso is a full-body compression garment system that simultaneously delivers three therapeutic modalities.
Sequential Compression
Air chambers in the suit inflate and deflate in a precise sequential pattern — moving from feet upward through legs, abdomen, and arms. This mimics the action of manual lymphatic drainage massage, pushing fluid through the lymphatic system and stimulating circulation throughout the body.
Far Infrared Heat (38–50°C)
Far infrared wavelengths (4–14 microns) penetrate 3–5cm into tissue, warming muscles, fascia, and blood vessels from within — not just on the surface. This deep heat dilates blood vessels improving circulation, increases cellular metabolism, loosens tight muscles and fascia, stimulates detoxification through sweat at the tissue level, and activates the parasympathetic nervous system (rest-and-repair mode).
Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS)
The suit applies firm, even pressure across the entire body simultaneously — similar to the therapeutic effect of a weighted blanket, but amplified. DPS is clinically studied for its effects on the autonomic nervous system, reducing cortisol, activating the vagus nerve, and producing measurable relaxation responses.
Synergistic Effect
The combination of all three creates a synergistic effect that no single modality produces alone.

Your Experience
What to Expect
You will change into comfortable, thin clothing and lie down as our team helps you into the Flowpresso suit.

Most clients experience profound relaxation within the first 5–10 minutes.

40 minutes.
1–3 Sessions Per Week
1–3 sessions per week for a wellness or detox program; as needed for recovery.
Lighter, Calmer, More Energized
Most patients feel significantly lighter, calmer, and more energized. Increased urination over the next 12–24 hours is normal as the body eliminates mobilized lymphatic fluid — drink extra water.
1–3 Sessions Per Week · Results Compound
For lymphatic detox or nervous system recovery, 1–3 sessions per week is recommended. Nervous system and sleep benefits compound over multiple sessions. For athletic recovery, use as needed between training sessions.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
They both use sequential pneumatic compression, but Flowpresso adds two additional modalities that NormaTec does not include: far infrared heat and deep pressure stimulation. The combination produces a whole-body therapeutic effect far beyond circulatory compression alone.
The deep pressure stimulation activates the parasympathetic nervous system and stimulates serotonin production — a precursor to melatonin. Many patients report measurably improved sleep quality within the first week of starting Flowpresso sessions.
Flowpresso's sequential compression is highly effective for lymphedema management. It is not a replacement for medical-grade compression garments in severe cases, but it significantly reduces fluid accumulation and improves lymphatic flow. Always discuss with your provider if you have a diagnosed lymphedema condition.
Flowpresso is not recommended during pregnancy. For all other patients, it is safe and well-tolerated. Your provider will review any relevant health conditions before your first session.
