Peninsula Medical, Inc. Products
Peninsula Medical manufactures the ReidSleeve® and other fine products for Lymphedema. Their patented tissue gradient technology can effectively increase the flow of lymphatic fluid.
The soft, convoluted foam design creates high pressure points which provide a gentle, deep-tissue compression while the low-pressure points help to prevent blocking vascular flow. Effective treatment of edema requires compression that can get to the deep subcutaneous tissues without obstructing the lymphatic and venous outflow.
The ReidSleeve® is the only technology specifically designed to apply effective pressure to the skin, subcutaneous tissue and the connective tissue of the deep dermis, the areas where edema can accumulate and where fibrosis can build up. That is why the high and low pressure exerted by the ReidSleeve® is such an effective method for treating lymphedema.
