More information about Lipoedema Treatment

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) 

MLD is a specific type of gentle massage that is used to stimulate lymphatic flow thus helping reduce oedema (fluid build up). It is also useful to reduce plain and discomfort, it is most effective when combined with other treatments such as compression bandaging and/or compression garments.

Compression 

Specially made support socks, stockings, tights or garments. Wearing compression hosiery is the single most effective way of slowing down or preventing worsening symptoms. Compression garments encourage the flow of blood and lymph fluid within the lymphatic system which helps prevent fluid retention/oedema in the tissues and onset of Lymphoedema. In addition fluid within the tissues is encouraged to move towards the root of the limb, where it can be drained away more easily. Therefore wearing compression garments will hopefully stop the progression of Lipoedema into Lipo-lymphoedema.

Compression therapy may also reduce the level of pain and discomfort often experienced in the limbs by supporting soft tissues and painful knee joints. In addition, they provide support to the loose connective tissues and help improve appearance, streamline and redefine the shape of the limbs.

We provide an in house service for compression garments.
