A system for applying compression treatment to a wearer's body includes a compression garment positionable on the wearer's body. The garment includes an inflatable bladder and fasteners. The fasteners are electrically conductive and form part of an electric circuit. Connection of the fasteners closes the electric circuit and disconnection of the fasteners opens the circuit. A controller that provides air pressure to the garment is able to detect whether the electric circuit is opened or closed.
