*Hello! I am aware of the audio issues for certain devices. I have re-uploaded the video with fixed audio, which you can find on/after Dec 8th, 2022, HERE: ua-cam.com/video/m2ruve4fWQ8/v-deo.html
I was diagnosed with lymphedema about six months ago. Prior to that I'd never heard of it. This is a more in-depth massage than my therapist was doing. Then I had hip surgery at the end of January and the lymphedema treatments stopped. But my doctor ordered compression sleeves for my legs to help with that. I think this is something I can do in conjunction with the compression treatments so I don't have to go back to the binding bandages. Thank you for this.
We have the same story! I also was diagnosed with it prior to my hip surgery and had to stop during my recovery. Have started again and am doing exercises, massage, the leg wraps to be followed by the compression stockings & a pump.
I am a Burn Survivor 6-1/2 years out. I have 60% of my body burned with damage going into the muscle tissue from below my knees up to and including my groin. My arms were burned to muscle under my arm pits and they had to rebuild my hands. I have also had skin grafts on my chest and pectorial area. My edema started about 18 months ago. I was prescribed water pills from my General Practice Dr. and he also suggested compression socks, with not mention of how and what the real problem was. Through my own curiosity and suggestion from my massage therapist, I determined that I most likely have lymphedema and started drainage exercises. I was on UA-cam and your video was shown in my interests. The information that I found also explained the swelling that I have in my groin and under my armpits that I had just blown off as old age. I am 61 years old. Thank you for your information. I will follow up in a couple months and let you know how things are changing. My skin grafts are very thick and have little feeling. I am not sure how much pressure that it may require with the scaring. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story... just wanted to tell you I learned about doing the massage with a loofah....or a fascia blaster tool...you can research this on UA-cam.....❤
Sorry for your pain 😢 .... it makes me feel grateful for my skin. I had gynaecological cancer surgery which included pelvic lymph node dissection and pelvic radiation so now my thigh is chronically retaining fluid. Initially I also had severe redicular pain and inflammation in the tendons and muscles and could barely walk, but now I can walk again and do yoga and ride my ebike so all in all doing okay besides the continuous pain in my side which started during radiation treatment. Most parts of my body are working fine so I'm grateful every day for the second chance at life
I just wanted to say thank you so much for this informative video! I gave it a try last night, my legs felt more ‘alive’ and I could actually feel movement. A few hours into my night time sleep, I woke up completely have soaked my pants and shirt in sweat. When I did a google search on side effects from lymphatic drainage massage, it said “You'll experience an increase in sweating and body odor, a sign that toxins are being eliminated.” Awesome! Thanks so much. ❤
Thank you ✨💎 Truly helped my big legs. I was actually told by someone I had a lymphatic drainage problem but I never payed attention to it. I finally realised something was wrong cause my "fat" kept going to the same places. Be careful of drinking a lot of water....it can turn against you. As soon as I started doing this, my legs started shrinking more. Because we tend to be an ignorant society, fat isn't always fat x
1:32 It will take a few days to see your results. This is a life long journey, not a quick fix. If you discontinue this practice, your swelling will return. This video was much more thorough than the therapy I received. And much more effective.
i don’t normally comment, but i’ve been taking T replacement therapy, and h ave had issues with fluid retention, and lymphedema for almost a month now. when i say that 15 minutes of this caused me instant relief of most of the swelling and pressure i mean i almost cried it feels to damn good to have my body feel normal again. thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Thank you for publishing this video. I am 73 and 6’4” & 300 lbs with below the knee amputee on right leg. This is exactly the therapy I got in South Florida. However I live in Mexico and can’t find a therapist. I can do everything but the lower leg & foot and I can get my wife to help me with that. Thanks again - David
Thank you, I have not been diagnosed with cancer, thank goodness, and blessed be for all that have to go through that. 20 years I’ve been going to doctors here take this muscle relaxer, and every time I was told on like there is a tip of the finger lymph node there in my back. Oh that’s on related to the back pain., they never wanted to talk about those nodules I would find in my back 5 or 6 of them,but I have done 2 videos with you. The gut one & this one that includes some gut, but my calves were so sore. Two videos in one week and the last two that I had there this morning going I do not have any lymph nodes in my back for the first time, and I don’t know when - thank you so much for your time and caring
I cant thank this creator enough. Been having lipedema issues for a few weeks now and knew I needed to start doing something since it was interfering with exercise (which can ALSO help) and after doing this routine I went from having exessive buildup causing stiffness around my hips which prevented me from being able to squat properly- to being able to dip almost as deep as I used to be able. This is such a wonderful day, because I was distressed at the thought of having to pay a ton for physical therapy or massage to help me. Thank you SO MUCH
Thank you for this timely video. After my mom got out of the hospital from pneumonia, her legs were swelling badly. I used this video to give her daily massages while I was helping her recover. It was so interesting to see the improvement and feel the fluid move around. Just a couple of weeks later and her doctors are amazed that the swelling is completely gone!
First, what a loving and caring daughter you appear to be! The doctors "being amazed"... they are such jerks who can't seem to render effective care anymore! What if your mom had not had your dedicated efforts? (Like me!) Then those bozos prescribe more pills and only the treatment insurance will pay for.
I didn’t know this was a thing. Post cancer and healed in the name of Jesus. I thank you and may God bless you, your family and your business. You are kind and thoughtful. I appreciate and I know many do that we can do this without another medication. You are truly a blessing to me and have helped me continue to grow stronger with this new knowledge. I can’t say thank you enough.
Both my legs have severe vericose veins and I have worn compression stocking for years. I recently had one knee then the other replaced 90 days later. Swelling in my legs has been extreme and I have been determined that my 2nd knee replacement from 10 days ago goes better than the first one. This video is WONDERFUL to help get backed up fluid out of my leg. I can feel the difference after 20 minutes of self massage done the right way. I actually had lymphoma 23 years ago in my neck and chest. I never realized you need to stimulate the entire lymphatic system for best results. Thank you. Anita
Having varicose veins leads to venous insufficiency and therefore will cause swelling. It is all very well working on the Lymphatic system, but if your veins are damaged no amount of massaging would help. You need the underlying cause of your varicose veins treated. Not many people are aware that varicose veins can now be cured or hugely improved, but of course would need to be paid for. I know because I have been through all of this and it had nothing to do with the Lymphatic System.
@@1961-v9k Several natural herbals reduce & normalise varicose veins - and acupuncture / acupressure can also be helpful - it is worth checking options - I healed and normalised a nasty 45+ year old enlarged vein on my inner calf which I had had since a teenager ( I remember always being aware of & it used to hurt on occasion ) never underestimate what natural medicine can do for you.
I’m 52. I have never in my life seen loose skin around my ankle. But this home lymph work is working so well my ankle skin is loose at times where there has been so much congestion. It’s crazy. I’m gonna keep going. My knee (front & back) is the worst. It fills back up each day. It’s also improving my CVI symptoms. Thank you again for demonstrating like this.
CVI can now be cured or hugely improved if the underlying cause is treated by a qualified Phlebologist. This has nothing to do with the Lymphatic System and everything to do with Venous Insufficiency. You need Duplex Vein Mapping Scan to identify which veins need treating. I know because I have been through all of this and I have learned that very few people are aware that there is now a cure for Varicose Veins, but it is extremely hard to find the right specialist, especially in the US. I’m from England and had my treatment in London. Our NHS is unable to deliver such specialist treatment.
Last year I mentioned on another of your videos this tip my LMT gave to me. He recommended getting a paint roller with a soft brush cover to help reach the lower parts of the leg and feet I had trouble reaching because of bad knees and swelling from lymphedema making it hard/painful to bend at the knee.
Thanks! I'm primarily home bound. The Dr wanted to send me to a PT. This exercise is just what I need to help my swelling. It's not that painful. Unlike the exercises my Dr. recommended. After doing these for a while, then I can move on to the ones my Dr. gave me. 😊
Kelly thank you for your video, today (12.22.2022) my nose started running like a sive for the entire day. It's 9:30 pm and I just found your videos and tried the face lymphatic massage, and i was amazed at how fast it works, my nose stop dripping and I have experience some major relief. Keep up the good work I will be watchig more of your videos for a full body lymphatic self massage. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge.
Thank you!! I have lipedema and this is very useful. Make sure to mention lipedema which may cause lymphedema as well. But only with lipedema legs will swell !! You will reach a higher audience as 10% of women suffer from this horrible tissue disorder. Thank you!!!
Lipedema causes both legs to swell. Lymphedema usually causes swelling in the affected side. Leg swelling can also be caused by other things such as heart disease or POTS.
This does work. Takes patience and effort. I like to elevate my feet while doing it and right afterwards, so that lymph can continue to drain after you get it moving.
Great video! Just had PAP FLAP reconstruction and my thighs are so swollen. I followed along with you from begining to end and I feel a total difference! Real time videos are always the best_ THANKS SO MUCH 💕
Thank you so much! I had immediate results! My feet and ankles have been swollen for a couple months. I've been so embarrassed about my cankles! After doing this, actually, WHILE I was doing this I saw the swelling go down and completely vanish! Thank you so much!!! I'll make sure to drink a lot of water after this!!
Imagine the complimentary power that this holds if you were to do this for yourself before a physical challenge, appt. It just increases capacity so much. I'm thankful that you have posted this. Just tried it and love it! What a wonderful, peaceful sequence to incorporate into daily routines!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and methods.. I used your videos after Lymphadema in my neck post cancer and 29 lymph node removals. Now a family member has Lymphadema.. and it's getting worse. There are some pulmonary issues but the heart is good. I said just start the lymphatic drainage massage..thank you again. You have helped so much !
Thank you for this video.. as someone who was healthy and then one day diagnosed with a rare blood disease called Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP)- I had to have plasma exchange, high dose prednisone and targeted chemotherapy. My body has been left swollen and with joint pain. These videos are so helpful and easy to follow ❤
Girl, this is the truth! My hips were so tight for the past three weeks. I know I have some misalignment, but usually I could pop my hip back in place. It would not pop, and caused tension in my lower back. I did this massage while tanning outside, and once I started stimulating the lymph nodes in my groin area I immediately knew that was where the problem lied. I did your whole routine, and I came inside and my hip popped! I will be doing this massage as many times as I can fit it in. Thank you so much for this knowledge!
I use this technique on my elderly clients, one of my friends is physical therapist..it helps them so much.. thank you for your support as well, I incorporate your techniques as well! love your channel 😊
I have swelling, primarily in my feet, with (medically defined neuropathy) & it is very painful :( ! This came about after chemo / cancer without surgery. You are doing such good work here :) When I am on other sites, & people seem confused, I refer them to you as much as possible. Many, many thanks!
THANK YOU!!! I’ve been dealing with one thick leg and unable to wear shorts or keys and skirts and one session I can tell a difference! Thank you thank you thank you!! Doing this regularly now! Thank you! 🙏🏼
I loved this so much. My husband is in the hospital and my legs have been so sore. Thanks so much! I think this is great to show anyone i think I will show it to my mom.
I been suffering alot of pain and swelling in my right leg. I been True alot of test and they can't find anything wrong. I didn't know the proper massage you are teaching here today but I been getting pain relived by massaging my leg will keeping it up. I will try your methods and I'm sure this will be help me alot. Thank alot
I stand all day on my feet for work. Some days, my calves and ankles are so swollen. Sometimes after work, I walk with a limp because my feet are so tired. I get home and I've been suggested to give myself lymphatic massage to help drain my lymphatic. Your video was very thorough in step by step. I've bookmarked this video, hoping regular massage nightly helps relieve my tired legs and feet.
Thankyou so much for your video I love it. I am over 160kg with a non curable cancer that started as a rare form of leiomyosarcoma. I only heard about lymphatic drainage massage when my aunt mentioned it would be helpful. Omgosh as i was watchinf your video and trying it at the same time I noticed a huge shift. Thankyou
After doing this once, I feel so much relief. The instructions and explanations are detailed & easy to follow.I’ve never had swollen, tight legs before. I have been so uncomfortable for two days and am extremely grateful… thank you! 💐
I started riding again.( horses!) Any fluctuating oedema went, was my left arm due to mastectomy. Perfect workout for entire lymphatic system, and great fun too.
Thank you so much!!! I am scheduled to be able to work with a p/t, but she is not available for months. This gives me a sense of control and hope! I just bought my first brush as well from your links :)!
Thank you for your thorough explanation video. I used it and really found relief with my groin and swollen foot and ankle. Hope to see more of your videos. Thanks again.
My legs ankles and feet have been stolen with lymphendema for 30 years, the swelling has never gone down. They are tight and full of fluid all the time I ve done most of these remedies, without any change.
Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge with all of us who are struggling to keep from getting worse. It is so appreciated!! I can't wait to see more of your videos!
Thank you so much for this information. It was very helpful I will try to do it every day. I have been suffering with swelling for six months now,and the doctors have no answers.
How is things going with you mummy doctors seem to have no answers either I’ve done leg ultrasound, heart ultrasound , kidney liver function test I have no answers so I’m hoping this helps only thing I can think is I stand all day everyday nd don’t workout as much
Hi! Thank you for this in depth demonstration. I just discovered that what I appear to have is Lipedema. Now I need lymph massage technique for arms, especially triceps. Thank you!
Thank you so much. I have a major issue with my lymphatic drainage system and have swollen legs below my knees and more on the ankles. Lot of pain too. Will try these. 🙏
Thank you so much! I am traveling abroad and don't speak the language here. This was just what I needed in order to help myself while away from home. I'm grateful to you!
Thank you I’ve just by accident came across this. Just finished extreme physical therapy and now wear compression panty hose which are very hard to get on. This will help on my own care.
🙋🏻♀️I would really like to understand what’s happening when we sometimes get nauseous after a lymph session. I appreciate your teaching videos so much.
I'm sorry that you have felt nauseous after your sessions. I'm assuming it's because your body is now properly filtering/moving out any toxins. I know that I always have to pee immediately after a session.
I have the same AM & PM routine for 6 months now plus a couple more techniques I’ve added and I don’t feel nausea anymore : ) I can’t imagine stopping this routine it’s been so helpful in my health challenges .
I still followed these exercises and will continue to. I retain no fluid as of now & seldom. But I feel it will do good for my circulation especially since I am old with many discepencies
Your videos are very user friendly. To regain and improve lymph health needs to be addressed with lifestyle and dietary changes that, in my personal and professional experience, are not addressed within the allopathic medical world. Organs of excretion, as well as endocrine need to have their functions understood and improved. The lymph system is integral to all others, and I have yet to meet one physician who explains this to patients. If anyone who reads this has found one 👍 Unless the removal of what is being dredged up by the lymph self massage is improved through our bowels, urine, breath it is impossible to find real healing, which in my experience had to be found outside the pharmaceutical, injection, surgery paradigm that allopathic medicine offers. It is extremely unfortunate that this is how things are.
@@Dvmy8786 Divya, Google, or other search engines: Wellness Mama. Advice there. If you belong to fb there are groups there for natural approaches to infant health. Have you tried any of this gentle lymph drainage massage on your baby? Or, asked your pediatrician? Sadly, some just write prescriptions. I would search lymph drainage massage for babies. This is not a question to be answered w no info - history. Diet, your breast milk. The last three years of medical interventions - vaccines have had an impact on all of us and our health on all levels. Lots of stress. Keep looking, you will find answers.
Thank you for this video it's a little hard for me to do on my left leg cause had total knee replacement but did it, my left leg my ankle are swollen but goes away when you you have your leg up am alittle scare but did your exercises, Thank you
Hi Kelly. This is a great video. I can relate on this video more than the other videos you got. Even the ones your topic is about knee surgery. This video is really helping me. My question is. If I had my left knee replacement. Do I still have to do my right side massages? And also, how often do I need to do it?
Very well explained. Thank you for posting this video. I would like to ask, I have fat accumulation on my inner knees. The left leg is worse. I was told, it's a lymphatic drainage problem. Is this the case? Thank you in advance for your response.
Whew! I was told that I wasn't doing the stroking technique correctly some years ago when I was taught this and Dr Reed's technique is much faster and less fussy, too.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and methods.. I used your videos after Lymphadema in my neck post cancer and 29 lymph node removals. Now a family member has Lymphadema.. and it's getting worse. There are some pulmonary issues but the heart is good. I said just start the lymphatic drainage massage..thank you again. You have helped so much !
Hi 👋how are you doing?
You are a angel for posting all this helpful content for free, thank you so much 🙏🏻
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! Even if one does one quarter of the regime!!! AMAZING.. I do this before getting of the bed : I am able to JUMP out!!!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support! It means a lot and I am happy you are finding the videos helpful
Thank you for this video.. as someone who was healthy and then one day diagnosed with a rare blood disease called Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP)- I had to have plasma exchange, high dose prednisone and targeted chemotherapy. My body has been left swollen and with joint pain. These videos are so helpful and easy to follow ❤
I’m sorry you’ve had to go through all of this. But I’m happy you are finding the video helpful!
WOW! THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I LOVE THESE EXERCISES. GREAT STUFF A+
Thanks for these simple exercise for the lymphatic system.
Girl, this is the truth! My hips were so tight for the past three weeks. I know I have some misalignment, but usually I could pop my hip back in place. It would not pop, and caused tension in my lower back. I did this massage while tanning outside, and once I started stimulating the lymph nodes in my groin area I immediately knew that was where the problem lied. I did your whole routine, and I came inside and my hip popped! I will be doing this massage as many times as I can fit it in. Thank you so much for this knowledge!
Thanks Kelly for yet another well explained video. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Thank you for the support, Teresa!
I use this technique on my elderly clients, one of my friends is physical therapist..it helps them so much.. thank you for your support as well, I incorporate your techniques as well! love your channel 😊

Came across this video, thank you so much saw quick results. So easy to do when I wake up, before bed, and when I'm in bed watching tv. 😊❤
I have swelling, primarily in my feet, with (medically defined neuropathy) & it is very painful :( ! This came about after chemo / cancer without surgery. You are doing such good work here :) When I am on other sites, & people seem confused, I refer them to you as much as possible. Many, many thanks!

Thank you so much! Just doing this for the first time with the video was soothing. My knee feels better. Looking forward to continuing this.
I stand all day on my feet for work. Some days, my calves and ankles are so swollen. Sometimes after work, I walk with a limp because my feet are so tired. I get home and I've been suggested to give myself lymphatic massage to help drain my lymphatic. Your video was very thorough in step by step. I've bookmarked this video, hoping regular massage nightly helps relieve my tired legs and feet.
Thankyou so much for your video I love it. I am over 160kg with a non curable cancer that started as a rare form of leiomyosarcoma. I only heard about lymphatic drainage massage when my aunt mentioned it would be helpful. Omgosh as i was watchinf your video and trying it at the same time I noticed a huge shift.
Thankyou
Thank you for this .I am in extreme pain in my joints and this really helped..❤😊
After doing this once, I feel so much relief. The instructions and explanations are detailed & easy to follow.I’ve never had swollen, tight legs before. I have been so uncomfortable for two days and am extremely grateful… thank you! 💐
This worked like magic on my legs. Thank you! ♥️
Thank you a lot dear 🙏🏻 I really needed this after my lipedema surgery
I started riding again.( horses!) Any fluctuating oedema went, was my left arm due to mastectomy. Perfect workout for entire lymphatic system, and great fun too.
From Lymphatic system very excellent massage technich. Thanks!
THANK YOU! good video & explaining complete lymphatic function & massage
thank you so much for your videos they always help so much.
You’re so welcome!
Thank you so much!!! I am scheduled to be able to work with a p/t, but she is not available for months. This gives me a sense of control and hope! I just bought my first brush as well from your links :)!
thank you so much for creating this video. My new trial meds are causing serious leg swelling and this helped me immensely.
Thank you for your thorough explanation video. I used it and really found relief with my groin and swollen foot and ankle. Hope to see more of your videos. Thanks again.
Thank you for your help and learning about my legs.🌺
My legs ankles and feet have been stolen with lymphendema for 30 years, the swelling has never gone down. They are tight and full of fluid all the time I ve done most of these remedies, without any change.
Have you tried low carb and fasting ? Works like a charm.
Thank you I’m learning so much from your videos. God bless you!
Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge with all of us who are struggling to keep from getting worse. It is so appreciated!! I can't wait to see more of your videos!
You are so welcome! thank you for the kind words :)
everytime i travel for work my legs will swell, my hands will get so bad it hurts my fingers. this helped so much. i am a "healthy" individual as well
WOW!
EXCELLENT! MOST Valuable video on my issues with my " lymphede! Thank u. Instructors technique is soo easy to follow! Thank u!
I’m so glad to hear it was helpful!
Thanks for this. The last few years I’ve been resting my raised legs against the wall But now I know the rest of the story.
Is it not good to do that?
Thank you so much for this information. It was very helpful I will try to do it every day. I have been suffering with swelling for six months now,and the doctors have no answers.
How is things going with you mummy doctors seem to have no answers either I’ve done leg ultrasound, heart ultrasound , kidney liver function test I have no answers so I’m hoping this helps only thing I can think is I stand all day everyday nd don’t workout as much
I enjoy doing this with you whenever I can, thank you
I have lipedema in my legs. Thank you for this!
Did this help for your Lipedema ?
Thanks!
Thank you for your kindness and support! I greatly appreciate it!
Hi! Thank you for this in depth demonstration. I just discovered that what I appear to have is Lipedema. Now I need lymph massage technique for arms, especially triceps. Thank you!
Thank you. Very useful. Other videos concentrate on one leg. Good info on coping with with both legs.
Thank you so much. I have a major issue with my lymphatic drainage system and have swollen legs below my knees and more on the ankles. Lot of pain too. Will try these. 🙏
Thank you so much! I am traveling abroad and don't speak the language here. This was just what I needed in order to help myself while away from home. I'm grateful to you!
Thank you I’ve just by accident came across this. Just finished extreme physical therapy and now wear compression panty hose which are very hard to get on. This will help on my own care.
Thank you very much Dr for the valuable information so I can share with those who needs it.
🙋🏻♀️I would really like to understand what’s happening when we sometimes get nauseous after a lymph session.
I appreciate your teaching videos so much.
I'm sorry that you have felt nauseous after your sessions. I'm assuming it's because your body is now properly filtering/moving out any toxins. I know that I always have to pee immediately after a session.
@@Ohceedeeme i hope you are right as i have much. I’m doing detox lymph work x2/day
I hope yours clears out for you. 🙏🏼
Me too!
I have the same AM & PM routine for 6 months now plus a couple more techniques I’ve added and I don’t feel nausea anymore : )
I can’t imagine stopping this routine it’s been so helpful in my health challenges .
I think cause your removing toxins...
Thank you so much for sharing this information, it was very helpful.
You're an excellent teacher. God bless you. I sure wish you were in Vancouver, Wa. I'd bring my mother to you.
I still followed these exercises and will continue to. I retain no fluid as of now & seldom. But I feel it will do good for my circulation especially since I am old with many discepencies
Thank you for your execellent explanation! I Greatly appreciate it.
Thank you so much...I did exercise with you & going to continue...feel so great...
Thank you! This was a very good video. Very informative and easy to follow.
I have been thinking about relax this part very helpful thank you so much I really appreciate it see you again
Your videos are very user friendly. To regain and improve lymph health needs to be addressed with lifestyle and dietary changes that, in my personal and professional experience, are not addressed within the allopathic medical world. Organs of excretion, as well as endocrine need to have their functions understood and improved. The lymph system is integral to all others, and I have yet to meet one physician who explains this to patients. If anyone who reads this has found one 👍
Unless the removal of what is being dredged up by the lymph self massage is improved through our bowels, urine, breath it is impossible to find real healing, which in my experience had to be found outside the pharmaceutical, injection, surgery paradigm that allopathic medicine offers. It is extremely unfortunate that this is how things are.
Hello, my baby has lymphedema, I don't know what to do .can u suggest what helps . She is one year old
@@Dvmy8786 Divya, Google, or other search engines: Wellness Mama. Advice there. If you belong to fb there are groups there for natural approaches to infant health.
Have you tried any of this gentle lymph drainage massage on your baby? Or, asked your pediatrician? Sadly, some just write prescriptions. I would search lymph drainage massage for babies.
This is not a question to be answered w no info - history. Diet, your breast milk. The last three years of medical interventions - vaccines have had an impact on all of us and our health on all levels. Lots of stress.
Keep looking, you will find answers.
Thank you so much for spreading useful healing self care
Thank you so much for your help. I really feel so much better and can feel the difference
Thank you for this video it's a little hard for me to do on my left leg cause had total knee replacement but did it, my left leg my ankle are swollen but goes away when you you have your leg up am alittle scare but did your exercises, Thank you
Hi Kelly. This is a great video. I can relate on this video more than the other videos you got. Even the ones your topic is about knee surgery. This video is really helping me. My question is. If I had my left knee replacement. Do I still have to do my right side massages? And also, how often do I need to do it?
Hello, this is Nathan and u do a great job on your videos dear. Keep up the good work 🤗 ❤
Very well explained. Thank you for posting this video. I would like to ask, I have fat accumulation on my inner knees. The left leg is worse. I was told, it's a lymphatic drainage problem. Is this the case?
Thank you in advance for your response.
Hello how're you doing?
I don't have cancer but can this be used for edema and hormonal water retention? Thank you this made me feel better and calmed my anxiety down.
Thanks for this, Kelly.
Thank you so much for these videos i watch everyday. God Bless you 🙏
Thank you soooo much! I will do this every day 🙏 God bless !
How often should you do this. Twice a day.. every week etc??
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Lipodemia/Venous Insufficiency
10:00 this is so helpful and easy. Feels good. Is there a particular certification I should look for to insure lymphatic massage from therapists?
Thank you for your knowledge. I will start and know there is hope for me.
Thank you very much, great help
🙏
Whew! I was told that I wasn't doing the stroking technique correctly some years ago when I was taught this and Dr Reed's technique is much faster and less fussy, too.
I really wish i world have known all this sooner 🤗👍
Hi there! Great video
What kind of doctor would one have to see
If lymph nodes are an issue?
Thanks for a great video. It is very helpful
