Heat causes vessels to dilate and thus slows down the flow velocity. This is not intended in compression therapy. Of course, a material that is additionally applied to the skin or coat leads to the fact that the air circulation is somewhat impaired.
For this very reason, however, the EquiCompress is made of a material mix called "Breathe", which has a cooling effect. The extremity is 2-3° cooler because the special microfibre transports heat and moisture to the outside.
The only important thing is that no signs of inflammation come to light through the compression. So if you have the impression that one leg is getting hotter and pulsating, there seems to be an inflammation going on.
The compression system - as the name suggests - works as a system. Constantly decreasing pressure is crucial and designed by us in the same way.
