Reduced Weight, Expanded Size Adjustability, and Built-in Wi-Fi & Bluetooth® Deliver a More Comfortable, Connected Patient Experience Without Compromising Clinical Effectiveness MINNEAPOLIS, June 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tactile Systems Technology, Inc. (“Tactile Medical”; the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TCMD), a medical technology company providing therapies for people with chronic disorders, today announced full commercial launch of its next-generation AffloVest high-frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) therapy system.
