ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for massaging parts of the body by sequential cyclic pressure for assuring a lymphatic drainage, the apparatus comprising means for cyclic distribution of an inflating fluid through a conduit (2) and means for cyclic distribution of a control fluid through a conduit (3) to a treatment accessory comprising a plurality of juxtaposed inflatable cells, such as a massaging boot (1), the inflating conduit (2) being connected to each cell in the treatment accessory through distributors (4) receiving the control fluid, each distributor comprises a movable obturating member such as a membrane arranged in such a manner as to permit the passage of the inflating fluid in a downstream direction when the local inflating pressure reaches a value which is a function of the pressure of the control fluid, the cells of the accessory being inflated in series, one after another, and then deflated, in a cyclic manner.
