What is Compression Therapy?
Compression therapy is a non-invasive treatment that promotes circulation and supports the body’s natural lymphatic system. Using gentle pressure, it helps reduce swelling, eliminate toxins, and improve overall wellness.1 Ideal for anyone seeking to enhance recovery, improve athletic performance, or address issues like fluid retention, compression therapy offers versatile benefits for a variety of needs.2
Compression Therapy vs Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
Compression therapy is effective as a stand-alone treatment for individuals seeking optimal health or as a therapeutic option following injury or surgery. It pairs exceptionally well with manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) to enhance recovery and circulation for maximum benefits. While manual lymphatic drainage focuses on targeted areas with specialized techniques, the Ballancer®Pro suit delivers a full-body approach. Combining both methods can provide unparalleled results for recovery and wellness.

FAQs About Compression Therapy
- Am I a good candidate for Compression Therapy? Compression therapy is suitable for individuals of all fitness levels and health goals. It’s commonly used by athletes to enhance recovery, post-surgery patients to reduce swelling and bruising, and those looking to improve lymphatic health and overall wellness. However, individuals with specific medical conditions should consult a healthcare provider before beginning treatment.
- Is Compression Therapy safe for me? Yes, Compression Therapy is considered safe.3 While generally safe, those with certain medical conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) should consult a doctor.
- How long will my Compression Therapy treatment take? BallancerPro offers gradient treatment modes and exact treatment times; your treatment time will vary depending on your individual treatment plan and goals, but most sessions last between 10 minutes and one hour. For post-surgical recovery, sessions are typically shorter (20-30 minutes), while wellness and athletic recovery sessions may last up to an hour.
- Where will my Compression Therapy procedure take place? Your Compression Therapy session will be conducted in one of our advanced treatment rooms at the Bucky Body Center in Philadelphia, where you’ll relax comfortably on a massage chair designed to enhance your experience.
- What does Compression Therapy feel like? Compression therapy feels like a soothing, rhythmic massage. The suit’s pressure settings are fully adjustable, allowing you to tailor the experience to your comfort level. Most people find it relaxing and even rejuvenating, making it a popular choice for wellness and recovery.
- How many Compression Therapy treatments will I need? Each patient’s treatment plan varies according to their specific needs. Routine sessions to just maintain body optimal health is an option and we generally recommend at least two Compression Therapy sessions following any surgical procedure or injury. Compression Therapy can be used alone but is most effective in speeding up the healing process when used in conjunction with MLD.
- What’s the difference between Compression Therapy and MLD? Compression Therapy uses a full-body garment to apply gentle, rhythmic pressure that reduces swelling and improves circulation. It works on the entire body to support lymphatic health and recovery. Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), on the other hand, is a hands-on technique that targets specific areas to clear lymphatic pathways and reduce localized swelling. For the best results, these therapies can be combined to enhance circulation, speed recovery, and improve overall wellness.
