LymphedemaOther forms of edema
Caresia garments are machine wash and dry.Do not use additives like bleach or fabric softener.
Meryl, Lycra, Polyurethane
Foam chips create localized tissue stretch and pressure differential to stimulate the initial lymphatics, all while keeping you comfortable.
There’s no need to worry about padding, stockinettes, and foam. Caresia garments replace all of the above, which simplifi es your therapy and saves you time.
Caresia is designed to disperse irregular pressure which helps prevent over compression when applying the short-stretch bandages over top. The foam in the garment helps distribute unbalanced pressure evenly over your arm or leg.
