Lymphedema & Lipedema Therapy
Personalized care to reduce swelling, improve comfort, and support long-term lymphatic health.
At Pelvic Health and Total Wellness, we provide specialized care for lymphedema and lipedema focused on reducing swelling, easing discomfort, and improving overall tissue health. Using techniques like manual lymphatic drainage, compression guidance, and targeted movement, we create personalized treatment plans that support lymphatic flow and long-term symptom management—helping you feel more comfortable, mobile, and in control of your body.
Lymphedema is swelling caused by a buildup of lymphatic fluid, often after surgery, radiation, or due to underlying conditions.
Lipedema is a chronic condition involving painful, disproportionate fat distribution—typically in the legs—often accompanied by heaviness and easy bruising.
