Lymphedema and Compression Boots

At Alpha Chiropractic, we use compression boots for a variety of conditions, including lymphedema, foot swelling, and neuropathy. Compression boots are a valuable tool in a chiropractic office because of their ability to reduce fluid buildup.
Compression boots have a few layers that help with fluid from lymphedema. The boots will squeeze fluid from the bottom of the foot to the ankle. The next chamber will move fluid from the ankle to the lower leg, and from the lower leg up to above the knee. This sequence pushes fluid from the bottom all the way to the top, and works especially well for lymphedema, but also for anyone suffering swelling in that foot. Swelling contributes to a few different conditions, in addition to making it more difficult to walk and move, and creating more pain in the ankles and feet. These symptoms increase with symptoms such as neuropathy.
If you are suffering from lymphedema, swelling, or neuropathy, it’s possible that compression boots are right for you.
