Lymphedema is a chronic condition whereby the lymph system is unable to properly drain fluid amassed in the body. Lymphedema can be a hereditary condition, but it's most commonly the result of blockages caused by infection, cancer, scar tissue from radiation therapy, or the surgical removal of lymph nodes.
Whether you have congenital or acquired Lymphedema, the resulting pain and discomfort can disrupt daily activity and negatively affect your life. While Lymphedema is not curable, do know that controlling the condition and easing symptoms is possible. In addition to traditional therapies such as exercise, weight loss, proper nutrition, and manual lymph drainage performed by a trained therapist, compression therapy can greatly improve a patient’s physical comfort and emotional disposition.
Lymphedema can be treated, managed, and controlled. Although Lymphedema has afflicted the population for centuries, little was understood about the disease. Only in the past ten to fifteen years have clinicians begun to seriously focus on its treatment. Our Lymphedema Compression pump is designed by implementing the latest research and technology and can DRAMATICALLY improve the quality of your Life!
