Vacuodermie® Therapy (using state-of-the-art device) proves its effectiveness by extracting toxins and invigorating tissue flexibility, which improves lymphatic flow, circulation, scar therapy, and the immune system. Vacuodermie uses custom settings and connections to improve chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, chemical sensitivity, brain fog, migraines, tender lymph nodes, disrupted sleep, and GI disturbances. Vacuodermie also mitigates symptoms from restless leg syndrome and varicose veins while promoting healing of scar tissue and burns. Vacuodermie can be used alone or with Pressotherapy™ depending on the symptoms and goals of treatment.

  • Cupping is a special way of using Vacuodermie that validates the medicinal power of circulation. During cupping, vacuum pressure is applied to the skin, which stimulates the breakup and healing of muscular scar tissue and painful lactic acid nodules. Using this technique on restricted fascia from injury can result in greater mobility and functionality.

Pressotherapy™ decreases swelling and lymphatic congestion, restless leg symptoms, and pain from varicose veins.
