Re: Swelling?

Thought I would check in. I'm through 5 of my 10 PT sessions for lymph edema. They use massage and wrap therapy. I will use a sleeve for preventative care.( repetitive use, flying,..). Very awkward but totally doable. It did take three days of wrapping before it showed minimal improvement. Hope all goes well for everyone else.
