A device for compression therapy of a subject's body part including a compression sleeve configured to be surroundingly engageable with the body part, the sleeve having at least one bladder configured to be inflated and deflated such that an enhanced circulation is achieved and a controller configured to calculate a change in the volume of the body part by determining a change in a time required for inflating the at least one bladder from a predetermined vacuum level to a predetermined pressure level obtained during at least two inflation cycles; and to control operation of the compression sleeve based at least on the calculated change in the volume of the body part.

Method and device for pneumomassage

There is provided herein, a valve for filling of at least one fluid cell of a pressure device, the valve comprising: a multiplicity of chambers; at least one elastic membrane having a varying physical property along at least one dimension thereof, the at least one elastic membrane configured to cover one or more of the multiplicity of chambers to cause varying pressure among the multiplicity of chambers; at least one membrane fluid inlet configured to provide fluid so as to apply pressure on one side of the at least one elastic membrane; at least one chamber fluid inlet configured to provide fluid to at least one of the multiplicity of chambers and apply pressure to the other side of the at least one elastic membrane; and at least one chamber fluid outlet configured to allow fluid to exit from at least one of the multiplicity of chambers to at least one fluid cell of a pressure device.
