Lymphedema and Other Conditions of Swelling
Lympedema is a condition that changes gradually. It is best to find out early how to treat it. It is much less time consuming to prevent the changes that swelling creates than to reverse.
Cancer Care
If you are being treated for cancer, we recommend learning about lymphedema and receiving treatment soon after starting cancer care. We can help you reduce your risk of developing a problem and also provide valuable support during your treatment.
Manual Therapy for Acute Problems
Due to the gentle nature of the manual therapy techniques, you can start treatment very soon after injury or surgery to speed your recovery. These techniques can help the tissues recover more quickly by supporting and enhancing the natural processes of healing.
