The pulse lymphatic drainage impacts certain parts of the body with positive and negative pressure expanding the elasticity of walls of blood and lymphatic vessels and open up the blood supply of various systems.

A vacuum therapy manipulates certain parts of the skin and influences it with negative pressure. The procedure improves the circulation of liquids. The key is not to use too much pressure or irks injuring the skin leading to bruises.
