How can The Circulation Booster prevent DVT/Deep Vein Thrombosis

Please note that you should not use The Circulation Booster while you have a DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis). Once the condition has been treated, use The Circulation Booster to prevent DVT's (Deep Vein Thrombosis) returning. When the body is faced with trauma, blood clotting provides the body with vital protection against severe loss of blood from an injury to a vein or artery. Blood forms clots when it is outside a blood vessel, however, if this action occurs within an artery, or vein, this can be dangerous. That’s why the best form of treatment is prevention.

DVT

Thrombosis, which is when a clot is formed inside a blood vessel, usually occurs when the blood within a vein or artery alters from a liquid state, where the blood flow is normal, to a thicker state, which causes the blood flow rate to slow and could potentially develop a clot. If the clot develops within a major vein, this is known as DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis).

The deep vein thrombosis usually develops in a deep leg vein, which can cause lack of movement or immobility. Deep leg veins are the larger veins that run through the muscles of the calf and thigh. A DVT(Deep Vein Thrombosis) can partially or completely block the width of your vein, this may block your blood flow through the blood vessel partially or completely.

Pulmonary embolisms (which are clots in the lungs) and DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) are conditions known as venous thromboembolisms. Venous thromboembolisms are very rare conditions (in the UK, 1 in 2,000 are affected each year). DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) affects 1 in 3,000 under the age of 40 and affects more adults over the age of 80 (up to 1 in 500).

Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) in the UK, is the most common cause of preventable hospital deaths. You will be shocked to hear that the number of people who die from Venous Thromboembolism, each year in the UK, is more than Road Traffic Accidents, AIDS and Breast Cancer added together. Parliament announced on 20/06/05 that people who died from VTE is over twenty times that who died due to catching hospital-acquired MRSA.

The symptoms of DVT/Deep Vein Thrombosis (in the leg region) may include:

Pain - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Tenderness - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Cramp - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Swelling - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Warm skin - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Redness (usually found at the back of your leg or below the knee joint) - Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) is a common, very inconvenient and at times, life threatening condition, which with the correct approach, in most cases, can be totally prevented.

How can I help my condition (Deep Vein Thrombosis), either at home or on the move?

The Circulation Booster® is registered as a medical device in the UK and thousands of customers have already benefited from either the home or mobile devices. It is specifically designed to increase the blood circulation, which targets the lower leg region.

The Circulation Booster® sends out electrical impulses which induces muscle stimulation in the feet and lower legs. Muscles contract and release to pump the blood and improve circulation.

Poor leg circulation can provide much discomfort including swelling, pain, numbness and in severe cases, Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). By improving the blood circulation in the legs, the risks of these problems are significantly reduced.

What results can you expect?

Clinical studies support this method of application. It has been shown that the use of muscle stimulation of the feet, as well as the calf, can:

Prevent venous stasis thereby preventing the risk of developing DVT and Pulmonary Embolism
Improve circulation and reduce pain and swelling
Improve muscle strength and reduce wastage
Increase energy levels and reduce stress
Improve wellbeing and mobility
Alleviate tired and aching legs
