Pumps
| We are able to supply the Lympha Press® external compression system throughout the United States. The Lympha Press® is a calibrated gradient pressure 12-24-chamber pump that utilizes a 30-second cycle. The sleeves for the arm or leg inflate sequentially from distal to proximal, providing a medically correct deep tissue massage to increase circulation and reduce swelling comfortably. |

The Lympha Press® ArmSleeve appliance is specially designed with a shoulder piece that inflates to help move fluid into the body.
| The Lympha Press® LegSleeve appliance utilizes a four-chamber boot for maximum effectiveness. This system is designed for safe and easy home use as prescribed by a physician. The Lympha Press® is supported by published long-term clinical research studies and is referenced in current vascular teaching textbooks. |

Many therapists, clinics and teaching hospitals use Lympha Press® in conjunction with other treatments such as Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD). The new Lympha Press® Plus is a fully programmable system specifically developed in conjunction with European clinics for use with massage therapy. This pump starts with a unique pre-treatment cycle based on the principles of manual lymph drainage which helps empty the proximal lymphatics prior to treatment; then to calibrated gradient compression, a highly effective treatment for maximum results and comfort; and finishes with pre-treatment. This clinical model is compatible with all Lympha Press® garments.

Garments
Compression garments are the maintenance element of compression therapy. Once a limb is reduced, a compression garment is fit to maintain the limb at the reduced state. Compression garments do not reduce limbs. Great Lakes fits Juzo, Jobst and Gottfried standard and custom compression garments as well as other non-elastic support devices including the Circ-Aid.
