Pressotherapy in London on the Body Ballancer
Pressotherapy in London at Omnia Lifestyle's Chiswick clinic uses the Body Ballancer compression therapy system to ease heavy legs, bloating and water retention, and to support recovery after surgery or training. Rhythmic waves of pressure move from the feet towards the torso, following the direction of lymphatic flow, to clear pooled fluid and support circulation. You stay fully clothed, and many people find it deeply relaxing.
Sessions are run by our therapists and start at £45 for 30 minutes, with courses available. Compression pairs well with manual lymphatic drainage, and you can see compression, MLD and LPG Endermologie side by side on our lymphatic drainage in London page. Book a first session with consultation to find the right plan for you.

Why people come
Why choose Omnia for compression therapy
- Reduces water retention and bloating. Moves pooled fluid towards the lymph nodes that clear it.
- Relieves heavy, tired legs. Many people feel lighter after a single session.
- Supports recovery. After surgery, sport or travel, with your medical team's agreement where relevant.
- Supports contouring. Clears fluid alongside LPG Endermologie and MLD in a contouring plan.
- Fully clothed, non-invasive. No undressing, no needles, no downtime.
- The Body Ballancer. Sequential chambers deliver graded waves of pressure along the whole limb.
The mechanism
How pressotherapy works
The Body Ballancer suit contains a series of chambers that inflate in a precise wave from the extremities towards the body's main drainage points, mirroring the lymphatic system's natural rhythm. That amplifies the movement of fluid through the tissue and guides it to the lymph nodes that filter it, which is why legs often feel lighter and less swollen after a session.
Manual lymphatic drainage brings a therapist's precision; the Body Ballancer brings consistent full-limb coverage. The two combine well: MLD opens the drainage pathways, compression keeps the fluid moving. Results build with repetition: a single session can bring relief, and a course is recommended for longer-lasting change.
Who it helps
Is pressotherapy right for you?
- Fluid retention and heavy legs. Swollen ankles, puffiness and bloating that build through the day.
- Recovery after surgery. Once your surgeon agrees, to clear fluid and support healing.
- Athletes and gym-goers. Compression therapy to support recovery after hard sessions.
- Long-haul travellers and desk workers. Legs that have been still for too long.
- Cellulite and contouring programmes. Alongside LPG Endermologie for fluid and texture together.
- Anyone who wants to feel lighter. A firm, moving hug for 30 or 60 minutes.
What to expect
What to expect at your first compression therapy session
Your first visit starts with a short consultation to check suitability and agree the areas and pressure settings for your goals. You stay fully clothed and are fitted into the compression garments, covering the legs or legs and abdomen, on a comfortable treatment bed. The rhythmic wave then runs for 30 or 60 minutes; most people describe it as a firm, moving hug, and it is common to doze off.
You leave immediately afterwards, typically feeling lighter and needing the loo more often as fluid clears. Your therapist will recommend the right course cadence for your goals, and can combine sessions with manual lymphatic drainage or Endermologie.

When to get medical advice first
If one leg suddenly becomes swollen, painful, warm or red, do not book compression therapy: get urgent advice from NHS 111 or your GP, as this can be a sign of a blood clot. Call 999 if you also have chest pain or difficulty breathing.
