Lymphedema and Lipedema Management
Gentle, supportive care for swelling, heaviness, tenderness, and the day-to-day discomfort that can come with lymphedema or lipedema.
What It Is
Lymphedema and lipedema are different conditions, but both can leave you feeling uncomfortable in your body.
Lymphedema happens when lymph is not moving well and fluid builds up in the tissues. Lipedema is a condition that involves painful fat and tissue changes, often in the legs or arms, and it can sometimes overlap with lymphatic swelling. If those terms feel a little clinical, the simple version is that your body may feel heavy, full, sore, tender, swollen, or harder to move through than it used to.
In these sessions, I use Manual Lymphatic Drainage and thoughtful, body-aware care to support comfort, ease, and mobility. I tailor the session to your body, your symptoms, and what feels manageable and supportive for you. Some people come in regularly as part of ongoing care, while others are just beginning to understand what their body has been dealing with.
My focus is not on pushing through the body. It is working gently, respectfully, and in a way that supports how you want to feel in daily life.
Who It Is For
This may be a good fit if…
- you are living with lymphedema or lipedema
- you experience heaviness, swelling, tenderness, or tissue sensitivity
- you want gentle bodywork that supports comfort and mobility
- you are looking for lymphatic support that feels attentive and individualized
- you want care that works alongside your broader treatment or self-care plan
Cautions
I do not diagnose lymphedema or lipedema. If you have sudden new swelling, redness, heat, fever, suspected infection, uncontrolled heart or kidney concerns, or any sign of a blood clot, please speak with your doctor first. If you wear compression garments or are under the care of a specialist, I am happy to work within that plan.
