]]> Lymphatic Drainage Now Available http://moretonallbodycare.com.au/news/lymphatic-drainage-now-available/ Mon, 04 Nov 2019 02:49:25 +0000 http://moretonallbodycare.com.au/?p=10429 Kim, our massage therapist at the Burpengary Practice, has recently completed part A of her Decongestive Lymphatic Therapy course and is now able to offer Lymphatic Drainage as an Advanced Lymphatic Drainage Therapist for the treatment and management of Lymphedema.

Lymphedema occurs as a result of damage to the lymph nodes or lymph vessels.

The lymph vessels run very close to the blood vessels in our bodies and move fluid from the body through the lymph nodes and then into the blood. Lymph nodes work as filters to fight infection and help regulate swelling.

Lymphedema is chronic swelling that happens when the lymph is not moving properly. This can happen when lymph nodes are removed due to cancer. Lymph nodes can also be removed in other non-cancer surgeries. Lymph nodes and vessels can also be damaged with radiation therapy for cancer or through an injury to a body part.

Some people are born with poorly working lymph systems. In some cases lymphedema is caused by damaged leg veins or a history of blood clots. These people can also develop lymphedema due to back up of blood and fluid in the small vessels of the body.

Lymphedema results in chronic swelling that leads to tissue inflammation and scarring. The swollen body part feels harder to touch and is heavier than the non-swollen side.

Lymphatic Drainage can assist in stimulating the lymphatic system and helping to reduce the amount of swelling in the affected body part/s.

For more information about this treatment, or to book an appointment with Kim for Lymphatic Drainage, please contact the practice on 3888 6699.
