Patient FAQ's

What is compression therapy?
Compression therapy is intended to aid venous circulation and to reduce swelling due to certain conditions.  Your physician will prescribe a pump, boot/sleeve, specific pressure settings, and a treatment time.

Is the treatment safe?
Yes, developed for a pediatric patient, Wright's products are used today on patients of all ages.  The youngest patient was two weeks old and the oldest was over ninety years old.

Do insurance companies cover the device?
We will assist you in determining your coverage. Private insurance companies usually provide coverage for compression pumps.  Medicare also provides coverage, but requires a specific qualifying process that we will help you with.

Can I treat both limbs at the same time?
Yes, the pump can treat two limbs at the same time.

Will the boot or sleeve fit me?
After you are measured, we will determine if you can use a standard size or will require a custom size.  Wright is focused on delivering treatment options for even the most difficult cases.
