Lymphedema patients who have tried our new LymphaTouch therapy device say it really helps them. LymphaTouch accelerates fluid drainage, which relieves swelling-related pain.

Here's how one patient benefitted from LymphaTouch:

"After surgery and radiation for melanoma left me with scar tissue and fibrosis that complicated my lymphedema - I am seeing dramatic results with the use of LymphaTouch to date! I am thrilled to have this treatment option!"

If you have questions about whether LymphaTouch can help you, call our office at (703) 789-0367.

"During my appointment Cheryl listened, evaluated and fully explained the diagnoses and put together a plan specific for me; it was obvious that I was in good care. ... Eliska is thorough and caring and ensured my comfort. She knew when to push me and when I was at my limit based on how I was feeling each visit. ... From the first time I walked through their door, Cheryl and Eliska have definitely been helping me to dance in the rain. I always leave feeling better than when I enter, both physically and emotionally. "
