Lymphedema is the persistent swelling of a body part as a result of blockage or damage to the lymphatic vessels that transport excess fluid back to the heart. The lymph nodes are part of this vessel system. They filter the lymph fluid and remove toxins. 

Our therapist can help people experiencing lymphedema due to: 

• Treatment for cancer or trauma 
• Extensive surgery 
• Venous congestion 
• Primary lymphedema (lymphatic vessel system that is deficient at birth)

Left alone, Lymphedema is likely to worsen: causing skin problems and infections in the form of cellulitis. Treatment for this condition includes drainage using specialized massage techniques; compression to reduce volume; exercise to improve circulation and mobility; vigilant skin care.

Lymphedema therapists are trained in all of these techniques. It is a partnership. Education in long term self-management of this condition is essential for a return to normal activities and the quality of life you deserve.

A custom-made foot orthotic is a medical device that looks like the insole that comes out of your shoe. It is made of a variety of materials depending on the person’s condition, activity levels, weight and alignment. The goal of a custom made orthotic is to correct a person’s gait pattern and create efficient movement. This will help to reduce stress and disperse forces throughout their feet, ankles, knees, hips and back. With specialized education and training in foot orthotics and footwear, Canadian Certified Pedorthists help to alleviate pain, abnormalities and debilitating conditions of the lower limbs and feet. Our Canadian Certified Pedorthist, C. Ped (C), will assess lower limb anatomy and cast, manufacture, adjust and dispense orthotic devices. The goal of every Canadian Certified Pedorthist is to help patients achieve and maintain proper foot care and lower limb health so they can live healthy, active lives.
