Turn pressure into power with WrapAbility

At SIGVARIS GROUP, we believe that every person has the right to live their life with autonomy, strength, and dignity, regardless of their medical condition. With WrapAbility, we are turning the challenges of lymphedema and lipedema into opportunities for empowerment. For those living with medical complexities like lymphedema or lipedema, the pressure of daily life can feel overwhelming at times. 

Inelastic wraps

A wrap consists of an understocking and an overlying, inelastic compression aid, which covers the affected extremity, e. g. with the aid of velcro straps, and creates a graduated compression. Wraps are available from SIGVARIS GROUP as serial product.

Indications

Lymphedema, lipedema, edema of venous origin, mixed forms and the wound management of ulcers.

Effect of compression

Wraps create an inelastic compression and have similar material properties to short-stretch bandages. They are also highly effective in lymphatic or venous edemas, as well as in the treatment of leg ulcers. If the circumferences decrease or increase, one can readjust the wraps with little effort or adjust the appropriate pressure. The wear- ing comfort of inelastic wraps is very high.
