ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for treating vascular, metabolic and functional imbalance, and edema of a limb by variation in pressure of a high-density fluid around the limb, a fluid-tight flexible bag serves to protect the limb to be treated and a filling bag delimits a filling enclosure with the protective bag. The apparatus includes a pump for producing upward and downward displacement of the fluid within the enclosure between a bottom level, a top level and intermediate levels, a timing circuit for maintaining the fluid at predetermined levels during predetermined periods of time, and a programmable logic circuit for adjusting the levels of fluid within the enclosure. An electronic variator are employed for regulating the speeds of upward and/or downward displacement of the fluid within the enclosure in respect of different levels.
