Lymphedema

The body has an ability to filter unwanted things such as bacteria, viruses, and other undesired substances from the body through lymph nodes. If these filters fail to work properly or are damaged fluid and or swelling can gather, often times in the legs and arms. This creates “Lymphedema”. The management and treatment of lymphedema is performed by a Certified Lymphedema Therapist.
