A device suitable for vein dilation includes a chamber having an interior for receiving a portion of a body, and having at least one inlet for admitting a fluid into the chamber. A fluid supply is connected to that inlet to enable the fluid to be admitted into the chamber. A suction source is connected to the chamber such as to be able to apply suction to the interior of the chamber, and a heater is positioned to be able to heat the fluid being supplied to the chamber by the fluid supply. In use, a portion of a body may be massaged and heated (one possibility is to use a fluidized bed formed in the chamber while the body portion is in the chamber), and a vacuum is applied to the portion of the body after performance of the massaging and heating step. Alternatively, the massaging may be omitted, and the body portion heated first and then subjected to a period of suction.
