Lymphedema Management
Do you suffer from swelling caused by chemotherapy or radiation? If you have had surgery that affected your lymphatic drainage system in either your armpit or groin, you can suffer from lymphedema.

During lymphedema, proteins that normally are transported to the lymphatic system are retained in the cells, causing substantial swelling.

Specialists in this area can ease congestion with manual lymphatic drainage techniques and compression.

Exercises are important to maintain range of motion and help keep the fluid circulating. Lymphedema can be successfully managed, with the heelp of rehab specialists.
