How it Works...

ECP treatment involves increasing the amount of blood returning to the heart, which helps supply more oxygen and blood to any starved areas of the heart. This also decreases how hard the heart has to work and gives the heart a greater volume of blood to work with. When more oxygen is available to the heart, it can function more efficiently and this can result in reduction or elimination of chest pain and alleviation of many issues associated with decreased circulation.

ECP treatment applies pressure to blood vessels in your lower limbs. The pressure increases blood flow back to your heart, so your heart works better. When your heart pumps better, symptoms ease.

This type of therapy can also encourage blood vessels to open new pathways for blood to flow to your heart. These pathways eventually become "natural bypass" vessels that help relieve symptoms of angina if your coronary arteries are narrowed or blocked.

What Are the Benefits of ECP?

ECP Therapy promotes the development of new blood vessels (a sort of natural bypass to clogged vessels) and restores the flow of healthy, oxygenated blood to the heart. This new therapy offers a safe, non-invasive, painless treatment that maximizes oxygen and nutrient rich blood flow throughout the body which in turn improves stamina, strength, mobility and vitality.

ECP Therapy can successfully treat:

heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, Parkinson’s disease, dementia and memory loss, neuropathy, erectile dysfunction, hearing loss, vision impairment, autoimmune disease, vertigo, rheumatic disease and restless legs syndrome and any conditions which can be directly linked to poor circulation, such as chest pain, fatigue and shortness of breath.
