Compression Therapy in Coral Gables, FL
What Is Compression Therapy?
Compression therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses controlled pressure to help move blood and fluid through the body more effectively. It is commonly used to support circulation, reduce swelling, and help the body recover naturally.
The Science Behind Compression Therapy
How Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Works
During treatment, special sleeves or boots gently inflate and deflate in a rhythmic pattern. This feels similar to a slow, relaxing massage and helps:
- Move fluid out of the legs and arms
- Improve blood flow
- Reduce pressure and swelling

Such a great spot. The spa is brand new, modern, and relaxing, and the staff is genuinely kind and helpful. It really feels like a spa oasis right in the Gables. I saw Taryn for Botox and fillers—she’s amazingly talented and the results look super natural. Definitely recommend.

I just had the most relaxing and invigorating facial with Anaelle at Plénitude. The spa is beautiful and everyone so welcoming and helpful. The salt room with red light therapy is worth it! I highly recommend this spa to anyone looking to get a treatment done.

What to Expect During Your Compression Therapy Session
Before your first compression therapy session, we want to ensure that the treatment is safe and effective for you. During this consultation, we:
- Review your medical history to identify any conditions or concerns
- Assess your specific needs based on your goals (e.g., recovery, pain relief, circulation support)
- Check for contraindications to ensure the therapy is suitable for you, such as checking for conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or certain heart issues
- Answer any questions you have about the therapy process, ensuring you’re fully comfortable and informed

Once you are ready to begin, the next step is getting set up for your session. Here’s how it works:

Once you’re set up, the therapy will begin. Most clients describe the experience as relaxing and soothing. Here’s what you can expect:
