Swelling Management
Swelling (often referred to as edema) is a natural but often frustrating part of injury, surgery, or chronic conditions. When fluid builds up, it causes pain, stiffness, and slows down your recovery. Our specialized service tackles this head-on by combining proven, standard principles with expert, hands-on techniques to effectively and quickly reduce swelling and get you moving again.
Our treatment approach includes the use of Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), a gentle, specialized massage technique that encourages the lymphatic system (your body's internal 'drainage system) to move stagnant fluid away from the affected area. This is complemented by compression, which provide external pressure to prevent fluid from pooling and support tissue recovery. Lastly, we incorporate fundamental principles of proper positioning, elevation, and joint mobilization to ensure fluid cannot settle and becomes a chronic problem.
