BTL LYMPHASTIM operates on the principle of intermittent pneumatic compression, also known as pressotherapy.The treatment uses specialised applicators containing a series of individual, overlapping air chambers.During your treatment:1. Your needs are assessedBefore treatment, we discuss your health, areas of concern and treatment goals to make sure LYMPHASTIM therapy is appropriate for you.2. The LYMPHASTIM applicator is fittedThe appropriate multi-chamber applicator is comfortably positioned around the treatment area.Depending on the applicators available and your treatment programme, therapy can be directed to selected areas such as the legs or upper extremities.3. A personalised compression programme is selectedThe LYMPHASTIM system allows controlled compression sequences and pressure settings to be selected according to the treatment requirements and your individual comfort.4. Sequential compression beginsIndividual chambers gently inflate and release according to the selected programme.Rather than applying constant pressure across the entire area, the compression progresses systematically through the applicator.5. A smooth wave-like massage is createdThe overlapping chambers help create continuous, even compression that supports the natural movement of lymphatic fluid and blood through the treated area.6. You relaxThere are no needles, heat or invasive procedures involved.The rhythmic compression should feel firm but comfortable, and most clients find the treatment deeply relaxing.

There is no single treatment programme that is right for everyone.Your recommended number of BTL LYMPHASTIM sessions will depend on:Your treatment goalsThe area being treatedThe degree of temporary fluid retention or heavinessYour lifestyle and activity levelsHow your body responds to treatmentWhether LYMPHASTIM is being used as a standalone wellness treatment or as part of a broader treatment programmeAs a General GuidelineMany clients may benefit from an initial course of approximately:5–10 TreatmentsSome clients may notice that their legs or body feel lighter after the first treatment, while more consistent or longer-term concerns generally benefit from a course of treatments.Once the initial programme has been completed, occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended according to your individual needs.A single treatment can also be enjoyed as a relaxing wellness session without committing to a full course.Your therapist will recommend the most appropriate programme following your consultation.

Treatment frequency depends on your individual goals and treatment programme.For an initial course, sessions may commonly be performed:1–2 Times Per WeekThe frequency can then be adjusted according to:Your treatment responseYour reason for treatmentYour comfortYour lifestyleOther treatments being performedMaintenance sessions can be scheduled less frequently once your initial course has been completed.More treatment does not automatically mean better results.Your programme should always be personalised rather than simply performing as many sessions as possible.

BTL LYMPHASTIM contains different treatment programmes with different compression patterns and treatment times.Depending on the selected programme, sessions commonly last approximately:30–45 MinutesCertain specialised protocols may differ.The appropriate programme, pressure and duration are selected according to your individual treatment requirements and comfort.

Before your first BTL LYMPHASTIM treatment, we perform a professional consultation to determine whether pressotherapy is appropriate for you.Your consultation allows us to understand why you are seeking treatment and whether there are any health factors that need to be considered before compression therapy begins.During your consultation, we may discuss:Your treatment goalsAreas of heaviness or temporary fluid retentionSwelling or puffinessLifestyle and activity levelsProlonged sitting or standingTravel habitsPrevious lymphatic treatmentsRecent aesthetic proceduresPrevious surgeryMedicationCirculatory conditionsCardiovascular healthKidney or liver conditionsPregnancyPrevious or suspected blood clotsRelevant medical historyYour therapist will also explain:How BTL LYMPHASTIM worksWhat the compression feels likeWhich applicator will be usedWhich programme is appropriateRecommended treatment durationSuggested treatment frequencyExpected resultsAftercareAny precautions or contraindicationsIf there is any concern about whether compression therapy is appropriate for you, we may recommend obtaining medical clearance before proceeding.

Once your consultation has been completed and treatment has been confirmed as suitable:1. You Are Comfortably PositionedYou will lie comfortably while the appropriate LYMPHASTIM applicator is fitted around the treatment area.2. The Multi-Chamber Applicator Is FittedBTL LYMPHASTIM applicators contain multiple overlapping air chambers designed to provide smooth, progressive compression without unnecessary gaps between treatment sections.3. Your Programme Is SelectedYour therapist selects an appropriate LYMPHASTIM programme based on your treatment goals and assessment.Different programmes use different:Compression patternsPressure levelsPressure gradientsInflation sequencesTreatment durations4. Gentle Sequential Compression BeginsThe chambers gradually inflate and release in a controlled sequence.You will feel pressure moving progressively through the treatment area in a smooth, wave-like pattern.5. Pressure Is Adjusted for Your ComfortCompression should feel:FirmRhythmicSupportiveComfortableIt should not feel painful.BTL specifically recommends that treatment pressure is selected according to the client's comfort and that comfort is monitored throughout the treatment.6. You RelaxThere are no:NeedlesLasersIncisionsHeat-based treatmentsMost clients simply relax while the programmed compression cycle runs.Once the treatment is complete, the applicator automatically releases its pressure and is removed.

Most clients describe the treatment as a gentle, rhythmic compression massage.As the individual chambers inflate and release, you may feel a wave of pressure gradually moving through your legs or treatment area.The sensation is often compared with:A gentle squeezing massageCompression bootsA rhythmic pressure waveA firm but comfortable body massagePain Level: None to MinimalThe treatment should not hurt.If the pressure ever feels uncomfortable, tell your therapist immediately so that the treatment can be adjusted.

Individual responses vary.Some clients report feeling:LighterLess heavy through the legsMore relaxedLess puffyMore comfortableeven after their first session.For more noticeable or sustained benefits, a course of treatments is generally preferable to relying on a single appointment.BTL's patient information describes noticeable benefits following a course of approximately 5–10 treatments, depending on professional recommendation.

BTL LYMPHASTIM is designed to support lymphatic and blood flow through controlled pneumatic compression.Depending on your individual circumstances, you may notice:A lighter feeling through the legsReduced sensation of heavinessLess temporary puffinessImproved body comfortA relaxing massage-like effectSupport for natural fluid movementImproved feeling of circulation in the treated extremitiesThe treatment response varies between individuals.It is important not to confuse temporary changes in fluid retention with permanent fat loss.

Downtime: NoneBTL LYMPHASTIM is completely non-invasive.Most clients can immediately return to their normal activities following treatment.There are:No incisionsNo needlesNo anaestheticNo laser energyNo skin resurfacingNo recovery periodSome clients simply feel particularly relaxed following treatment.

After your BTL LYMPHASTIM session:Stay Normally HydratedContinue drinking water normally throughout the day.There is no need to force excessive amounts of water.Keep MovingGentle movement such as walking can support normal circulation and muscle activity.Listen to Your BodyIf you feel relaxed or tired following treatment, allow yourself time to rest.Continue Your Normal Wellness RoutineRegular movement, hydration and a balanced lifestyle remain important between treatments.

No, manual lymphatic drainage is performed using specialised hands-on massage techniques.BTL LYMPHASTIM uses mechanically controlled pneumatic compression through multi-chamber applicators.Both approaches involve lymphatic support, but they use different techniques.

Comfortable clothing is recommended.Your therapist will explain what is most appropriate depending on the applicator and treatment area being used.

BTL LYMPHASTIM is designed to support both lymphatic and peripheral blood flow through sequential pneumatic compression.

Pregnancy changes circulation and increases the risk of certain vascular complications.Treatment during pregnancy should therefore only be considered according to professional guidance and Nani's treatment policy.Always tell us if you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant before treatment.

Compression therapy is not suitable for everyone.BTL lists a number of contraindications and precautions, including certain cases involving:Known or suspected deep vein thrombosisAcute thrombophlebitisSerious cardiovascular conditionsAcute infectionSignificant kidney or liver insufficiencyCertain vascular conditionsCertain tumour-related conditionsPathological pregnancyOther significant medical conditionsA complete health consultation is therefore required before treatment.Where necessary, we may request medical clearance.

BTL LYMPHASTIM is generally well tolerated when used appropriately.BTL notes that inappropriate or excessive pressure may contribute to effects such as:Temporary pressure sensitivityPetechiaeBruising or haematomaCapillary irritation or ruptureThis is one reason your pressure settings are personalised and your comfort is monitored throughout treatment.

Yes.One of the strengths of the BTL LYMPHASTIM system is that treatment parameters can be adjusted.Pressure should always remain within the appropriate programme parameters and your comfort level.More pressure does not automatically produce better results.

Every treatment journey at Nani begins with understanding you, not simply selecting a machine programme.Your consultation allows us to determine whether BTL LYMPHASTIM is suitable, what you would like to achieve and how your treatment should be personalised.We will assess your goals, health history and treatment area before recommending:The most appropriate LYMPHASTIM programmeTreatment pressureSession durationTreatment frequencyEstimated number of sessionsAny necessary precautionsAppropriate maintenance treatmentsOur aim is to give you a treatment plan that is safe, comfortable, realistic and tailored to your individual needs
