Power Q-1000 Plus Set - XL Leg Cuff Pair and Pants Cuffs

Before starting treatment, set the appropriate pressure and duration. Pressure can be adjusted between 20 and 300 mmHg, although most treatments require only 40-60 mmHg. Duration can be set from 0 to 30 minutes; for initial sessions start with 20 minutes.

The airchambers inflate in sequence - legs: ankle-calf-knee-thigh; arms: hand-forearm-elbow-upper arm - to optimize circulation improvement.

Safety instructions and contraindications

Follow safety instructions carefully. Do not use during acute deep vein thrombosis; external pressure can dislodge clots and cause pulmonary embolism. Avoid use in skin infections like erysipelas, as massage may spread infection.

For heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or post-myocardial infarction, never exceed 40-60 mmHg and use only one cuff at a time. Cancer patients should consult an oncologist before treatment; avoid direct treatment of active tumors.

Treatment frequency and duration

Frequency and duration should be individually determined. Generally, shorter, more frequent treatments (20-30 minutes) are better than rare, longer ones. Total daily treatment time on the same area should not exceed 120 minutes.

Expected effects

Patience is key - lymphoedema cannot be eliminated with a single treatment. Noticeable improvement usually occurs after 5-10 consecutive treatments. Regular use improves blood and lymph circulation, reducing swelling, tension, and pain.

Guidelines for pressure settings

Follow the instructions of your doctor or therapist.

General guidelines:

• Low pressure (40-50 mmHg) is sufficient for improving circulation; high pressure can be harmful.
• Start initial treatments at 40-50 mmHg for 20 minutes.
• Observe and increase pressure if needed but do not exceed 60 mmHg.
• Prefer multiple 20-30 minute sessions over long, up to 120-minute daily sessions.
• Be patient - assess changes after 3-4 treatments; avoid changing settings every session.

Risks of incorrect treatment

For lymph and venous circulation support use 40-60 mmHg. Higher pressure can cause micro-injuries and tissue hardening. Aggressive treatment may worsen conditions - avoid high pressure!

For heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or post-infarction states, never exceed 40-50 mmHg and use only one cuff to avoid overloading the circulatory system. Do not treat active tumors directly but feel free to treat areas distant from the tumor, e.g. legs of thyroid cancer patients.

Before starting treatment, set the correct pressure and duration. The device’s pressure range is 20–300 mmHg, but most treatments use 40–60 mmHg. Treatment time is adjustable from 0 to 30 minutes; for initial sessions, start with 20 minutes. Cuffs inflate in a specific order: legs—ankle, calf, knee, thigh; arms—hand, forearm, elbow, upper arm. This sequence ensures optimal circulation improvement.

Safety and Contraindications

Follow safety guidelines carefully. Do not use in acute deep vein thrombosis, as external pressure can dislodge clots, causing life-threatening embolism. Avoid use with skin infections like erysipelas, as massage may spread infection. Patients with heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or post-infarction require special caution: never exceed 40–60 mmHg and use only one cuff at a time. For cancer patients, consult an oncologist before use. If the tumor isn’t in the treated area, treatment is generally safe, but do not treat active tumor tissue directly.

Frequency and Duration

Treatment frequency and duration should be personalized. In general, shorter, more frequent sessions (20–30 minutes) are preferable; total daily treatment should not exceed 120 minutes.

Expected Effects

Patience is required—lymphedema cannot be eliminated in a single session. Results typically appear after 5–10 consecutive sessions. With regular use, circulation improves gradually, reducing swelling, tension, and pain.

Pressure Setting Information

Administer treatments under professional guidance. An instructional video is available:

General guidelines:

• The goal is to improve circulation without high pressure.
• Start initial sessions at 40–50 mmHg for 20 minutes.
• Monitor effects and increase pressure if needed, but not above 60 mmHg.
• Prefer frequent 20–30 minute sessions; total daily time max 120 minutes.
• Be patient—evaluate changes only after 3–4 sessions to avoid frequent adjustments.

Recommended Settings

Risks of Incorrect Treatment

40–60 mmHg is sufficient for circulation improvement; higher pressure can cause microinjuries and tissue hardening. Avoid high pressure to prevent worsening your condition. Patients with heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or post-infarction need extra caution: never exceed 40–50 mmHg and use only one cuff at a time, as multiple cuffs can strain the circulation and cause heart issues. Do not treat active tumor tissue to avoid promoting its spread (e.g., treat legs in thyroid cancer).
