LYMPHEDEMA

Complete Decongestive Physiotherapy / Manual Lymph Drainage (CDP/MLD) is used in the treatment of primary and secondary Lymphedema, and can be enhanced with cleansing herbs, vitamins, enzymes and natural supplements.  Use of natural supplements, however, while recommended, is not mandatory.  It is entirely at the discretion of the individual.

Our center is the only Wholistic Treatment Center for Lymphedema in the United States.  Our special protocol for treating Lymphedema can cut treatment time up to 50%.  Most treatment periods will last 2 weeks or less, depending upon the condition.  Treatment time is greatly influenced by the patient's adherence to our protocol.

We teach each patient how to maintain and improve their condition at home after treatment ends.  We develop an individualized program of dietary supplements tailored to their needs, and recommend compression garments, (Reid Sleeve, Circ Aid, etc.), as appropriate.  Some patients, who followed our program, were able to discontinue bandaging, and  wearing compression garments.  These results are not promised, however, because each person is different.  What is promised is that we will work at finding the best treatment solution for each person to make their home maintenance program as effective and easy as possible.

Testimonial received in 2009:
Hi Peter, I wanted to update you on my lymphedema condition. I developed lymphedema in July 07 after surgery, chemo and radiation treatment for uterine cancer in 2007. I saw you in the fall of 2007 and you gave me a couple of MLD treatments and the detox and herbal meds. I continued wearing compression shorts and knee high on my right leg. In March 08 I noticed that I could walk and stand more than 1 hour without pain and much swelling. It kept getting better and better. Then on June 6 I stopped wearing compression garments and continued the herbal medicines and didn't have any more swelling or pain. In November I stopped using the medicines and have had no problems since. Peter, your treatment has really worked for me! I have passed your name and website on to medical professionals and every woman I see with a compression garment. Thank you so much for giving me my life back. I am an active person who at one point couldn't do anything because of the lymphedema and now I am swimming, cycling, hiking, etc. again. Deb

THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE/ PAIN RELIEF

Therapeutic massage releases muscle tension, improves circulation, removes toxic wastes, restores mobility, increases range of motion, reduces pain in joints from arthritis, prevents muscle atrophy and improves muscle tone. It also creates a sense of well being, and helps the body to heal itself.

We care for your well being!
