Compression Therapy pricing for Higganum guests

  • Rapid Recovery Compression Leg Booties — 30 min · $30 Full-leg dynamic compression

Compression is the most-added session on the menu — it pairs onto a massage or sauna booking in a single visit.

What compression therapy at Branford River Spa actually involves

Dynamic compression boots inflate and release in sequenced chambers from foot to hip, pushing lymph and metabolic waste out of the legs the way a therapist's hands would, but for a full thirty minutes without fatigue.

At thirty dollars it is the cheapest genuinely therapeutic session we offer, which is why runners, hikers, nurses, and anyone on their feet all day treat it as routine maintenance rather than a treat.

Booking from Higganum: what to expect

You sit back fully clothed, legs sleeved into the boots, and control the pressure. Most guests read or close their eyes for the half hour and walk out with noticeably lighter legs.
