Adagyo Pressotherapy – Cocoon Medical

Improves Circulation | Fluid Retention | Improves Lymphatic System | Improves Digestive System | Improves Muscular System | Improves Skin Tone | Post Cosmetic Surgery Treatment

Our Adagyo machine provides lymphatic drainage therapy, also known as Pressotherapy.

Pressotherapy is a leading treatment that not only detoxifies the body but improves many systems of the body including circulatory, muscular and digestive system.

This scientifically approved mechanical massage, uses a pressure therapy pants suit, covering the legs, abdominal areas and glutes. The mechanical application of increasing waves of pressure to the body, mimics a peristaltic movement, providing much needed oxygen to the body, eliminating toxins in the process.
