Reflexology Lymph Drainage RLD case study continued...

6/2/2015

2 Comments

 
An update from last weeks RLD case study, which continued with treatment no.7 today. All the usual sensations were experienced plus a clear sense of trickling and draining in the fingers and hand, particularly the little finger and ring finger. 

Each week there have been changes to the measurable cylinder of the arm, (see graph) but swelling in the hand has been stubborn until today.   


In her weekly feedback, she reported wearing a jacket to work this week, and it being noticeably more comfortable, not so tight and restricted.

Hi Sally,

I follow reflexology treatments since I had my first treatment last year, but I have never seen results like this before. In the pictures you can see a definite reduction in the swelling.

Over how many weeks were the treatments given?

Well done this is exciting stuff!

Regards
Derek.

Hi Derek,
These results took 7 RLD treatments, which were done over 10 weeks. See the previous blog entry for more details.
I will be sharing details of two subsequent treatments soon, the most recent used hand reflexes, instead of feet.
Regards
Sally

    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.
