Lymphedema Plantation
Lymphedema Plantation
If you’re in Plantation and noticing persistent swelling, skin tightness, or a heavy sensation in your limbs, you may be experiencing lymphedema—a condition caused by impaired lymphatic flow. At Theracave, we offer personalized lymphedema therapy designed to reduce swelling, relieve discomfort, and restore mobility. Our approach includes manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy, guided exercise, and patient education, all tailored to your unique condition and lifestyle.
Lymphedema often follows cancer treatments like lymph node removal or radiation but can also be caused by injury, infection, or congenital factors. Though it’s a long-term condition, early and consistent treatment can greatly improve your quality of life. At Theracave in Plantation, our experienced therapists work one-on-one with you to develop a comprehensive care plan that helps manage symptoms, prevent progression, and support your overall well-being.

Q&A
What is lymphedema and how does it happen?
Lymphedema is swelling caused by a blockage or damage in the lymphatic system, preventing lymph fluid from draining properly. It often occurs after cancer treatment but can develop from other causes as well.
Can lymphedema be cured?
There is no permanent cure for lymphedema, but it can be effectively managed with physical therapy, compression, manual lymph drainage, and exercise to control swelling and prevent complications.
How does physical therapy help lymphedema?
Physical therapy for lymphedema includes manual lymphatic drainage, compression bandaging, therapeutic exercise, and education on skin care and swelling prevention. This approach helps reduce fluid buildup and improve mobility.
When should I seek help for swelling in my limbs?
If you notice persistent or unexplained swelling—especially if it’s accompanied by tightness, discomfort, or skin changes—seek professional care. Early intervention can greatly reduce the risk of long-term complications.
