    I was lying in the exact position when your video came on but first of all had to,remove my Velcro suppression stockings on both legs. That takes ages. Then I tried to do the massage but I have fibromyalgia and degenerative arthritis and my hands do not always work as I wish and some of the movements hurt my hands. I am nearly 80 and I wish that I had someone like you to do this for ,me. But I have saved your video and will keep trying.

      I hope you're doing well, if it helps, get a rubber spatula or another somewhat pliable tool, and use that, if you can. It'll take some pressure off your hands, but won't bruise like a wooden tool.

      Prayers for you.maybe a trusted neighbor or friend can lend a hand with messages......asking for help takes courage and strength too but your strength and courage may be more dependable and not effected by the fibromyalgia like your hands . You remind me of a dear friend in a similar situation. God bless you!

    My PT for the lymphedema in my left leg is showing me some different massages from yours.
    My leg first ballooned Nov. 2013, 2 days after the biopsy of a lymph node in my lower left back and BEFORE starting any chemo.
    I took pictures for my hematologist and his answer was, "I've never heard of such a thing.." 🙄
    Apr. 2014, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma now in remission, even though all the pain continued....
    Jan. 2018 started getting left leg infections VERY painful, but doctors continued scratching their heads even though I kept showing them that it's LYMPHEDEMA!
    They started sending me to another hosp. for lymphedema PT and had custom compression garments made.
    Pain finally went away as did most of the swelling until a couple months ago, it returned and my Dr. is sending me to a better PT hosp. and put me on Morphine SR and I'm still waiting for an ultrasound appt.
    I've worked out since 1982 and at 57, I still do, but the leg pain hurts so much at times I dont even want to stand up! 😭
    Why do the PTs say, "Lymphedema doesn't usually cause pain?" Am I just the lucky one?! 🤔

    Just went to therapist lymphatic? I had some doubts it would help but when she got done and I stood up whoa ! I believe ! How can such gentle touch do so much ? I expected a much more painful squeeze type massage , thinking how can this soft touches help? I'd like to do at home but don't know where to start ugh. Start here there where ? Wish I paid more attention when she did it lol. She massaged while w talked as I expected it to hurt at some point. It's over 2 weeks till I see her . Help?

    Thanks for the video . I have lymphedema in my left foot and lymph scintigraphy showed no lymph flow from the left foot up, but the right side is normal. Is it normal to develop lymphadenopathy in the right inguinal lymph nodes when lymph massage and bandaging is just started? Could it be due to increased activity in the above directed healthy nodes? Does the massage require a break?

    I developed very bad fibrosis in the groin area quite quickly after starting to wear toe to thigh compression. My PT then tried to get me to wear Velcro compression but that cause intense groin pain so I had to stop quickly. I exercise and do the lymphatic massage daily, often twice, but that can’t help the thickened groin skin. So now what should we try? I’m at a loss and my PT and Dr seem to have no answers. I guess I’ll just die of pain? What a way to go. 😢

    Hi Kelly, is it alright to do this if you are recovering from Covid, which left me with a blood clot in my left leg and I am now on a medication blood thinner for during recovering? The clots are below the knee, but unsure of loosening them. I have loved and benefited from all your videos over the past year!
    Thank you so much!
