Compression therapy with pressure bandages

Compression therapy is the application of counter pressure in the edema area by means of bandaging or wearing a non-elastic bandage. The applied external pressure increases the tension in the tissues. As a result, fluid outflow from those tissues decreases and the absorption of lymph by the lymph capillaries increases.

The tissues are also brought closer together, bringing the superficial and deeper lymphatic systems closer together. This improves the function of the lymphatic system in the edema area.
