Many people suffer from lymphedema, a condition in which the lymphatic system is not able to drain fluid from the tissues properly. This can lead to swelling, pain, and other problems.
Lymphatic drainage therapies (LDT) are a type of treatment that can help to improve the flow of lymph fluid and reduce the symptoms of lymphedema. There are many different types of LDT, each with its own benefits and risks.
FLOWpresso® is one type of LDT that uses low-frequency sound waves to stimulate the lymphatic system. This therapy is non-invasive and does not require any special equipment. It is safe for most people with lymphedema and can be done in a doctor’s office or special clinics.

This therapy can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including lymphedema, sinusitis, and cellulite.
