INDICATIONS
VEINOPLUS® V.I. electrically stimulates the muscles to cause their contractions. VEINOPLUS® V.I.
is more eective on the calf muscle pump (“the Second Heart®”) but it can be used on other
peripheral muscular pumps. The muscle contractions compress deep and supercial veins, as well as
lymphatic vessels and improve venous blood and lymph ows.
VEINOPLUS® V.I. is indicated for:
n Increase of blood circulation,
n Improvement of venous return,
n Reduction of venous stasis,
n Treatment of symptoms of Venous Insuciency or Post-Thrombotic Syndrome,
n Reduction of pain sensations in legs,
n Reduction of leg swelling (edema),
n Improvement in the healing of venous ulcers,
n Decrease of restless legs and night cramps.
VEINOPLUS® V.I. is also recommended for use in situations where there is a risk to the venous system,
in order to improve or facilitate venous return such as:
n Presence of varicose veins,
n Prolonged sitting or standing (oce, long haul travel, standing jobs…),
n Lack of physical activity (walking), leg immobilisation,
n Excessive weight or obesity,
n Pregnancy,
n Family history of Venous Insuciency
Results are not guaranteed, and can vary from person to person. If symptoms persist, consult your
doctor.
