Lymphedema Therapy

Lymphedema is a condition that arises when the lymphatic system, an essential part of the immune system responsible for circulating lymph fluid, becomes blocked. While lymphedema can be mild, it may also affect various parts of the body, including the legs, arms, chest, head, or genitals. Currently, there is no cure for lymphedema. However, with appropriate treatment and guidance from a qualified therapist, the condition can be effectively managed. Lymphedema often develops in individuals who have undergone surgery that involved the removal or damage of lymph nodes. Notably, around 40% of breast cancer surgery patients experience secondary lymphedema as a result.

Plastic Surgery Post-Operative Care

Post-operative physical therapy care is a structured rehabilitation program designed to aid recovery after surgery. This care is tailored to the type of surgery and the patient’s unique needs, ensuring a safe and effective recovery. By following a personalized therapy plan, patients can regain independence, restore functionality, and improve their overall quality of life.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to promote the natural flow of lymph fluid and reduce swelling. Often used to manage lymphedema, MLD helps alleviate pain, boost circulation, and support healing by moving fluid away from affected areas. A trained therapist performs MLD using light, rhythmic hand movements to guide lymph fluid toward healthy lymph nodes. This non-invasive therapy is typically combined with other treatments like compression therapy and exercise for optimal results, aiding in both recovery and long-term management of lymphatic conditions

sCAR TISSUE MANAGEMENT

Scar tissue management involves techniques and treatments aimed at improving the healing, appearance, and function of scars formed after surgery, injury, or trauma. It helps prevent complications like stiffness, pain, or restricted mobility caused by excessive or tight scar tissue. Proper management focuses on softening the tissue, promoting flexibility, reducing adhesions (where scar tissue binds to surrounding structures), and enhancing the cosmetic appearance of the scar. Common methods include massage, stretching exercises, silicone cupping and compression therapy Scar tissue management is an essential part of post-operative recovery, ensuring optimal healing and restoring functionality
