I was recently forwarded a question from this blog by a client and it was about someone asking about compression therapy.
We import the Lympha Press into the UK and Ireland. I have lymphoedema myself and using the lympha-press has been truly amazing in helping manage my condition. I still see my MLD therapist on a regular basis (every 2 weeks); but my pump and trousers really help keep the swelling down and the tissue soft between visits. furthermore; my therapist can see how well it is working for me.
The Lypmpha Press trousers with 24 inflating cells, cover the whole of the trunk and work deep into the inguinal lymph nodes eliminating the risk of abdominal flooding.
The full jacket also has 24 cells. There is also a comfy arm sleeve.
This product is widely used across the the world and is new to the UK market. I will probably be in trouble for advertising a product on this forum, but there are too many people out there who don't know which way to turn and as I suffer from the condition myself I understand the emotional stress that it causes; starting with the daily fight to put on the compression garments.

Hi, Thanks for the contact, but i am about to undergo the next round of my ops so i wont be able tio use this at the moment, but i will get back in contact once i have recovered from the next stages of my ops.
I hope the firm has got in touch with people, please call them if they haven't as they are very nice, but might be very busy. All I can say is it worked for me and my mother.
Its a question of trial and error - a qualified nurse to supervise at first is helpful as the
compression machine is a medical device. We used it very gently at first working up
in pressure and time. There are contra indications I expect, but I would really urge
people not to be deterred by any MLD professional who might be afraid of being redundant.
In my opinion with these machines they could treat more people and do more good. But
just cos it worked for me and my mother it might not help everyone. But its worth trying
