Avaco

Vacuum therapy device

Double functionality

Based on ASTAR’s many years of experience in creating professional physical therapy and medical equipment, the Avaco vacuum therapy device has been created.

Avaco – Vacuum therapy

Modern design and applied technical solutions make Avaco one of the most advanced models of this device type available on the market. Avaco is a device enabling specialized treatments in the field of vacuum therapy, which has been designed to work with electrotherapy devices.
 

Avaco – benefits for the customer

Greater efficiency of vacuum therapy

In order to increase the patient’s comfort during electrotherapy and vacuum therapy, the Avaco device allows to work in five modes – continuous, pulse, variable pulse, synchronized with the electric current and pulse with increased lower vacuum. The programmed operation modes also allow to tailor the type of therapy to patient’s specific needs in order to achieve the best treatment results.

Higher effectiveness of electrotherapy

The Avaco device is equipped with self-sealing suction cups, which facilitate the attachment of electrodes in places difficult to access for traditional electrodes. This means that you can perform treatments in a much simpler and more effective way.
 
Thanks to the mechanical massage effect that occurs when working in pulse mode, the Avaco device offers patients additional benefits connected with the use of vacuum therapy during electrotherapy.

Guaranteed quality of treatments

The device after switching on carries out the self-test procedure. It allows the device to be diagnosed each time, which in turn guarantees correct functioning and repeatability of parameters. The Avaco unit is equipped with a microprocessor controller that controls all parameters relevant to the correctness of the procedure and supports the entire user interface.
