Supportive therapy in everyday life – easy to apply at home
Venen Engel is the Company of the Year 2026 for Lipedema and Lymphedema Therapy Products
Living with lipedema or lymphedema means doing something incredible for your health every day. We believe: This discipline deserves solutions that don't make daily life harder, but noticeably easier. Our commitment to this path has now been officially recognized: Venen Engel has been awarded by the renowned European trade magazine MedTech Outlook Europe as the "Lipedema and Lymphedema Therapy Products Company of the Year 2026 in Europe" . This honor is not just for our products, but especially for the people for whom we develop them.
Who has awarded us and what does this award mean?
MedTech Outlook Europe honors companies that make sustainable contributions in the healthcare sector. The focus is not solely on technological innovation, but on how much solutions can truly ease the daily lives of patients.
For us, this award confirms a simple belief: Therapy must fit into real life, not the other way around.
Many people with lipedema or lymphedema find therapy to be complex, time-consuming, and difficult to integrate into daily life. Appointments, waiting times, and fragmented care pathways often make it challenging to implement recommended measures regularly and over the long term. It's not uncommon to feel that one's own issues are not sufficiently acknowledged.
This is exactly where Venen Engel comes in.
Therapy for home, self-determined and everyday-friendly
Our medical compression solutions are intentionally designed to be easy to use and seamlessly fit into daily life. They can be used regularly at home and alongside medical care, without the pressure of additional appointments or organizational hassle.
This way, therapy doesn't become something that needs to be planned or justified, but rather a reliable part of one's everyday life. For Helge Meyer, managing director of Venen Engel, this is exactly what is reflected in the feedback from users:
“Patients often refer to our system as their 'best friend'. This shows what happens when therapy stops being something that has to be laboriously organized and becomes something you can rely on.”
Noticeable relief in everyday life
The crucial difference: The overlapping chambers. While simple systems often have small gaps between the chambers where compression briefly pauses, we use overlapping chambers. These ensure:
- A seamless, continuous sequence of pressure along the entire length of the leg
- Smooth fluid transport without untreated areas
- A physiologically correct mobilization process
Many users report increased mobility, improved sleep, and a new sense of lightness, sometimes even after the first use.
“Finally, a therapy that fits into my life.”
Individually tailored, because every body is different
Our Lymph-Flow Pants start at the feet and extend beyond the hips and lower abdominal area. This is because the body's natural drainage path should also be holistically considered in accompanying compression therapy. This comprehensive coverage can meaningfully support the physiological fluid transport.
For patients who are severely limited in their mobility or have difficulty putting on a complete pair of pants, we offer our leg cuffs. These are particularly easy to handle and allow for use from the feet to the groin. This way, one can still benefit from the soothing massage.
Additionally, we support our users with easy-to-understand instructions and personal telephone consultations with medical product advisors.
More than an everyday helper: Support and Community
With Venen Engel, support doesn't end with the purchase.
We offer clear information, personal advice, and authentic testimonials, either by phone or digitally.
With the Venen Engel app, users can document their therapy progress, well-being, and mood. This creates structure, enhances self-awareness, and can boost motivation in everyday life.
More than 45 percent of our customers have come to us through personal recommendations. For us, this is a clear sign. The purchase of a device is not the end, but the beginning of a trusting companionship.
Our Mission

This award belongs not only to us. It belongs to everyone who walks their path with lipedema or lymphedema every day. Thank you for this trust.
For more ease. For more understanding. For more quality of life.
