Your Questions, Our Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

We know you have questions. Here you'll find clear and precise answers to the most common concerns about our products and services. Your satisfaction is our top priority.

Before Purchase
Can I view and test the Venen Engel on site?

All events and trade shows are announced on this website and our Facebook page. So it's worth checking in from time to time or liking our Facebook page.

Additionally, you can ask medical supply stores and pharmacies about the Venen Engel and bring it to their attention.

You can also exercise your legal right of withdrawal. This means you can buy the Venen Engel and return it within 30 days if you're not satisfied.

Is there a warranty on the Venen Engel? Can I return it just like that?

The warranty on your compression massage devices and accessories is two years. Refurbished devices have a one-year warranty, and compression stockings come with a 6-month warranty.

A 30-day right of withdrawal applies.

What accessories are available?

In addition to the leg cuffs and extension flaps for the leg cuffs, the following accessories are available: arm cuffs, pants cuffs, abdominal cuffs, extensions for the abdominal cuff, extensions for the pants cuffs. You can find an overview of all accessory items here.

Please ensure that the cuffs are compatible with your Venen Engel model (number of air chambers).

What is the difference between 4, 6, 8, and 12 air chambers per cuff?
The more chambers the cuff has, the more intense the massage effect, as smaller areas can be targeted more precisely per air chamber. Additionally, with premium models, you can deactivate individual chambers to exclude sensitive areas from the massage.
What are the dimensions of the cuffs?

Fit Recommendation for Leg Cuffs, Pants Cuffs, and Lymph-Flow Pants

What is the difference between the standard and premium models?

The standard and Premium devices differ in several key factors:
- Additional massage programs: The Premium models offer you additional massage programs to choose from. This allows you to customize the massage according to your personal preferences.

- Deactivatable air chambers: Additionally, with the Premium models, you have the option to exclude individual air chambers. This way, you can avoid massaging sensitive areas.

- Individual pressure setting of the air chambers: With the Venen Engel 12 Premium, you have the option to adjust the pressure in the individual air chambers. This allows for a more comfortable, efficient, and needs-oriented massage.

- Remote control: All Premium models come with a remote control.

- Deactivatable air chambers: Additionally, with the Premium models, you have the option to exclude individual air chambers. This way, you can avoid massaging sensitive areas.

Up to what leg circumference can I use the device?

The standard cuff can be used for a leg circumference of up to approximately 68 cm. However, we offer practical extension straps that gradually increase the maximum leg circumference by 10 cm. The extension straps can be connected to each other to reach the required circumference.

Are there different cuff sizes (legs with larger/smaller leg circumference)?

There is only one cuff size, which can be enlarged with additional extension straps. However, due to the large volume of the air chambers, effective use is easily possible even with a thigh circumference of under 45 cm. For legs with a larger circumference, there are extension straps available to enlarge the leg cuffs.

How do I know if the pressure is okay, or what pressure should I use the device with?
The sensation of pressure and pain varies from person to person. You should clearly feel the massage effect. However, the application should never be painful. It's best to start with a light pressure and gradually increase it until you find the optimal pressure for yourself.
