How does it work?

Vibro-Pulse® is a unique 3 dimensional spiral / cycloidal vibration action that is clinically proven to increase skin blood supply and microcirculation. The cycloidal vibration increases localised vasodilation of the blood and lymphatic vessels to increase circulation in the tissues. Blood and lymphatic vessels before and after Vibro-PulseAs a result:

  • Enhancing skin and tissue healing (leg ulceration)

  • Improving delivery of antibiotics to the skin to treat the area of infection (cellulitis / erysipelas)

  • Reduce swelling / oedema (venous hypertension, cellulitis / erysipelas)

Hydration of the epidermis and upper dermis

Blood and lymphatic vessels before and after Vibro-PulseUse of Vibro-Pulse® has also demonstrated improved hydration of the epidermis and upper dermis, stimulating fluid drainage and a reduction in oedema / swelling.

While cycloidal vibration of the limb is in progress, the relatively stiff tissue components transmit cycloidal vibration well, causing fluid to be pumped into and along the lymphatics, reducing tissue pressure and oedema.
