Lymphedema Therapy at home.
What is Lymphedema?
Lymphedema is a chronic condition characterized by swelling, typically in the arms or legs, caused by a buildup of lymphatic fluid. This occurs when the lymphatic system is damaged or blocked, preventing proper drainage of fluid throughout the body. Lymphedema can develop as a result of cancer treatment, surgery, radiation, infection, or trauma, and in some cases, it may be hereditary (primary lymphedema).
If left untreated, lymphedema can lead to...
Discomfort
Decreased mobility
Recurrent infections,
Skin changes
Significant impact on daily activities and overall quality of life.
Early diagnosis and specialized treatment are essential in managing symptoms and preventing progression.
At Lymph Therapeutics, we provide evidence-based lymphedema care focused on reducing swelling, improving lymphatic flow, and helping clients return to the activities they value most. Our approach includes manual lymphatic drainage (Vodder technique), compression therapy, therapeutic exercise, skin care education, and personalized management plans tailored to each individual’s needs.
Our Services
Lymphedema Therapy
Lymphedema treatment focuses on reducing swelling, improving lymphatic flow, and managing symptoms to enhance quality of life. We provide lymphedema treatment using MLD, compression, and exercise to reduce swelling, improve flow, and support long-term wellness.
Wound Care
Lymphedema can significantly impact skin integrity making individuals more prone to developing wounds, infections, and other complications. Proper wound care is essential for managing lymphedema-related skin issues and promoting healing. Our wound management techniques help prevent infection and promote tissue regeneration.

We offer comprehensive oncology lymphedema rehabilitation services, combining evidence-based techniques to address the physical and emotional aspects of recovery.
