What is Lymphedema?
Lymphedema is a condition characterized by chronic swelling, most often affecting the arms or legs, due to a malfunctioning lymphatic system. At Innovative Therapy PC, we treat both primary lymphedema, which can be genetic, and secondary lymphedema, often caused by surgery, cancer treatments, or injury.
Symptoms include fluid buildup, heaviness in limbs, and restricted range of motion. Our treatments help reduce swelling, alleviate pain, and restore functionality. Our certified therapists use advanced techniques tailored to your condition, improving your quality of life.
