Physical Therapy For Lymphedema

What is Physical Therapy for Lymphedema?

Lymphedema is a condition characterized by swelling in the arms or legs due to a blockage in the lymphatic system. Physical therapy for lymphedema is a specialized approach designed to manage and reduce this swelling, thereby enhancing mobility and improving quality of life. The treatment typically includes manual lymphatic drainage, compression techniques, exercise, and skin care. Manual lymphatic drainage involves gentle massage to encourage the natural drainage of lymph, while compression garments help maintain the reduction in swelling. Exercises are tailored to promote lymph fluid movement and maintain flexibility. This therapy aims to alleviate discomfort, prevent complications, and support patients in managing lymphedema effectively.
