Lymphedema
Lymphedema develops when the lymphatics have not developed or have been destroyed while undergoing surgery or radiation treatments. Impaired lymphatics or untreated venous insufficiency lead to Lymphodema.
Lymphedema and chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) are diseases of the lymphatic and venous systems resulting in progressive swelling, inflammation, and skin changes. Unfortunately, there is no cure for lymphedema, but symptoms can be managed with daily pneumatic gradient compression. Our pneumatic compression devices provide calibrated gradient pressure and are easy to use at home.
Recommended treatment:
Two, one-hour therapy sessions per day.
