Reflexology Lymph Drainage and a swollen leg ~ course feedback

9/6/2013

2 Comments

 
As I was writing the last blog entry I received and email from one of the reflexologists who attended the course yesterday in Cardiff.  

This seems to re-enforce the idea of adapting RLD and using it to help relieve swelling in different areas of the body.

I have had an interesting experience. My left leg usually carries a lot of fluid from a previous ankle injury and a knee operation last June. Since this I have had a pocket of fluid under the knee on the shin and into the calf. Also my left ankle or cankle as they are now described!!! was very puffy on the medial ankle. On getting up this morning my left leg appears to have lost some fluid and appears to me to have reduced in size and looks much more like the size of my right leg. My leg in general feels much lighter and flexible. I know the focus of the treatment was the upper body but perhaps the treatment yesterday in moving the upper body lymph has encouraged the rest of the body to move also. I have had general reflexology before to try and make some impact on my leg but have not had such a significant result previously. It is definitely worth adapting the routine to encourage lymph drainage for other body parts.

This is an extremely interesting result. It would be good to know how long the effect lasts, and at a later date perhaps another treatment with some leg measurements?.

    Reflexology Lymph Drainage

    RLD is a reflexology technique which stimulates specific lymphatic reflexes on the feet. Developed from first principles & researched by Sally Kay to help with the management of secondary lymphoedema in patients affected by treatment for breast cancer.  Further research into RLD is ongoing and training is available for reflexology practitioners.
