| About Circulator Boot
FDA approved non-invasive technology
Circulator
Boot™ improves heart function and the core circulations in the body:
arterial, venous and lymphatic. A cardio-based sequence of leg
compressions stimulates circulation by working with the heart, not
against it.

Greetings!
November
is National Diabetes Month and according to the American Diabetes
Association (ADA) is "a time to shine a spotlight on a serious disease
that leads to potentially life-threatening complications such as heart
disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness and amputation." Most
of you deal with wound patients on a daily basis and are intimately
familiar with the devastation that diabetes can bring.
At
Circulator Boot Corporation, we have focused on the treatment of
diabetes related vascular issues/wounds using Boot therapy since our
inception. In support of the ADA and their mission, Circulator
Boot will donate 5% of the monthly revenue we earn from new rental
agreements during the months of November and December. To learn
more about National Diabetes Month and to see how you can support the
cause, please visit the ADA at www.diabetes.org.
This
will be the last edition of the Circulator Boot Newsletter this
year. Look for the next edition in early January. Thanks
for all of your support during this year of transition. We are
all determined to move this therapy forward in significant ways in 2010
and we'll need your help.
Have a terrific Holiday Season!

Ask Dr. Dillon |
Why are Circulator Boot pressure gauges given in inches of water pressure?
Venous hydrostatic pressure is conveniently measured with a ruler.
The pressure a venous valve holds back is directly related to the
vertical height of the column of blood above it to the sternal notch.
The pressure is greater if obstructions block the flow of blood back to

Dear Circulator Boot Corporation,
"I just wanted to update you on my Dad. He
started Circulator Boot therapy six weeks ago, and in that time he has
