As the premier at home physical therapy services provider in Lake Worth, FL, we proudly offer cutting-edge therapy for lymphedema-treatment at home and more! Our practice is grounded in evidence-based methodologies, ensuring superior patient outcomes...
We start with a thorough evaluation of your swelling patterns and skin condition. Treatment sessions often include gentle massage, specialized wrapping, and instructions on proper use of compression garments. You’ll also learn home exercises to encourage lymphatic flow. Depending on your specific needs, we may employ multi-layer bandaging, teach you specialized breathing exercises, or incorporate light cardiovascular activity to support lymphatic drainage. Over the course of therapy, we’ll also guide you on lifestyle modifications—like skin hygiene or avoiding constrictive clothing—that help maintain long-term results.
Individuals dealing with primary or secondary lymphedema, often following cancer treatments, surgeries, or injuries that compromise the lymphatic system. This includes breast cancer survivors, patients recovering from orthopedic surgeries, or those with genetic predispositions to lymphatic dysfunction.
