Pressotherapy is a relaxing, non-invasive compression treatment designed to support lymphatic drainage, circulation and overall wellbeing.
Using controlled, rhythmic air compression, the treatment gently works along the treated areas to create a massage-like effect. It is an ideal addition to a regular wellness routine, particularly if you experience tired or heavy legs, spend long periods sitting or standing, exercise regularly, or simply want to support your body’s natural lymphatic flow.
At KK Wellness, our pressotherapy treatment also incorporates infrared heat, creating a warm and deeply relaxing experience.

Pressotherapy uses a specialised compression suit that fills with air in a controlled sequence.
Different sections gently inflate and release, creating rhythmic pressure across the treated areas. This sequential compression encourages the movement of fluid through the tissues and supports healthy lymphatic and venous circulation.
The sensation is similar to a gentle, rhythmic massage — comfortable, relaxing and requiring no downtime.
You simply lie back and relax while the system does the work.
People choose pressotherapy for many different reasons. It can be incorporated into a regular wellness routine or used when the body feels particularly heavy or tired.
Many clients describe feeling lighter and more relaxed following their session.
The lymphatic system plays an important role in maintaining fluid balance throughout the body.
Unlike the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system does not have a central pump like the heart. Movement, muscle contractions and external compression can all help encourage lymphatic fluid movement.
Pressotherapy creates sequential pressure across the treated areas, gently compressing and releasing different sections. This can support the natural movement of lymphatic fluid and may be particularly appealing when you are feeling heavy, puffy or sluggish.
It is a simple way to incorporate lymphatic support into your regular wellness routine.


Pressotherapy has become increasingly popular as part of post-workout recovery routines. The rhythmic compression provides a relaxing massage-like sensation for legs that may feel tired or heavy following exercise.
Whether you regularly go to the gym, run, cycle, attend fitness classes or simply lead an active lifestyle, pressotherapy can be a relaxing addition to your recovery routine.
It may be particularly suitable after periods of intense activity when your legs feel tired and you want to relax without another physically demanding treatment.
Simply lie back, relax and allow the compression cycle to do the work.
Our pressotherapy system also incorporates infrared heat.
The gentle warmth adds another dimension to the treatment, helping create a comfortable and deeply relaxing experience while the compression cycle is taking place.
For clients who enjoy warmth during their wellness treatments, the combination of rhythmic compression and infrared heat can make the session particularly relaxing.
During the treatment, you wear a specialised compression suit while relaxing comfortably.
The individual chambers inflate and release in sequence, creating a gentle squeezing and releasing sensation around the treated areas.
The pressure should feel firm but comfortable rather than painful.
There are no needles, no invasive procedures and no recovery time required. After your session, you can simply continue with your day.
Pressotherapy can be a great option for people who:
You do not need to have a specific concern to choose pressotherapy. Many clients simply incorporate it into their regular self-care and wellness routine.
Pressotherapy can also be combined with Colon Hydrotherapy at KK Wellness.
While Colon Hydrotherapy focuses on the colon and digestive system, Pressotherapy works externally through rhythmic compression to support lymphatic flow and circulation.
For clients looking for a more complete wellness experience, combining the two treatments can be a great way to support different systems of the body within the same wellness routine.
Our therapists can advise you on how to incorporate both treatments depending on your individual goals.
