Chemotherapy
Secondary Lymphedema, or acquired Lymphedema, can develop as a result of any radiation, surgery, infection or trauma. Surgery for breast, gynecological, head and neck, prostate, testicular, bladder, colon, lung cancer or melanoma, all of which currently require removal of lymph nodes, put patients at risk of developing secondary Lymphedema. If lymph nodes are removed, there is always a risk of developing Lymphedema. Even with a sentinel lymph node biopsy, patients are still at risk. Secondary Lymphedema can develop immediately after surgery, weeks, months, or even years later. It can also develop if chemotherapy is injected to the already affected area (the side on which the surgery was performed) or after repeated aspirations of a seroma (a pocket of fluid which may occur after surgery) in the axilla, around the breast incision, or groin area. This often causes infection and may subsequently cause Lymphedema.
Radiation Therapy
The majority of our patients’ wounds heal with consistent CDP treatment within 2 to 4 weeks. There are many factors that can impede the wound healing process including tissue swelling, pressure, trauma, and infection. Wounds need to have a proper balance of not being too wet or too dry – an environment heals three to five times faster, with less pain, than those exposed to a dry environment. Factors that can impede healing at a wound site are age, body build/weight, chronic disease such as diabetes or renal failure, diet/nutritional status, poor circulation, insufficient blood supply, suppressed immune system, and radiation therapy.

Wound Care
We work along with local wound care centers and physicians following wound care protocols. If there are wounds present of any origin, each therapist is qualified and knowledgeable about caring for the wound with the appropriate products.
Orthopedic Surgery
Patients who have had surgical procedures such as cancer surgery, cardiac surgery, gastric by-pass, orthopedic surgery, plastic surgery or cosmetic procedures.
Reconstructive Surgery
Swelling has long been a concern for physicians and their patients, whether the swelling is due to cancer surgery, orthopedic surgery, trauma, sports injuries, diabetes, venous stasis ulcers, radiation, chronic venous insufficiency or plastic/reconstructive surgery.

Skin Care
At LymphaTx, your Lymphatic Therapist uses a unique combination of gentle manual lymphatic drainage techniques. The hands-on Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) Therapy is made up of slow, gentle, rhythmic movements, mimicking the pumping of lymphatic fluid through the body. MLD is the first component included in Combined Decongestive Physiotherapy (CDP). The goal of CDP is to decongest trapped proteins and congestion within the lymph system, allowing waste products and toxins to slowly and safely flow out through healthy lymph vessels. Additionally, compression bandaging (wrapping the affected area with short stretch bandages to increase drainage and prevent fluid from refilling), skin care, therapeutic exercises and compression stockings/ sleeves work together to improve the flow of lymphatic fluid and maintain the reduction of swelling.
