Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This disclosure relates to compression garments, specifically to compression garments to promote lymphatic circulation and/or circulation of other bodily fluids. The garments can include compression actuator units that can apply a pull force on a strap of the compression garment to apply compression to an anatomical feature of the user. The compression actuator units can be actuated via contraction of a wire made of shape memory material. The compression actuator units can include a plurality of levers to amplify the effect of the contraction of the wire to provide a wide range of compressive forces to the user.
