LYMPHEDEMA WITH ACUPUNTURE AND LOW LEVEL LASER

Lymphedema with Acupunture and low level laser

The use of Acupuncture and LLLT for LYMPHEDEMA

Lymphedema, characterized by the accumulation of lymph fluid and resulting in swelling, often in the limbs, can be caused by factors such as surgery, radiation therapy, infections, injury, or congenital conditions. 

Traditional treatment approaches include compression therapy, manual lymphatic drainage, exercise, and lifestyle modifications.


In addition to these conventional methods, emerging complementary therapies such as Acupuncture and Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) show promise in assisting with the management of lymphedema.  


The progressive nature of lymphedema involves excess protein and fluid in tissues, fibrous tissue deposition, and chronic inflammatory reactions. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) presents a promising approach, particularly as it addresses fluid and fibrous deposits close to the skin. LLLT aims to soften tissues, reduce fluid, and encourage the growth of new lymph vessels, facilitating drainage. 


                   Acupuncture:

  • Promoting Circulation: Acupuncture, a traditional Chinese medicine practice, involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. The objective is  to promote circulation flow which may help address the stagnation of lymphatic fluid and promote its proper flow, reducing swelling.
  • Pain Management: Acupuncture has been recognized for its analgesic effects, potentially aiding in the management of pain associated with lymphedema.
  • Immune System Modulation: Some studies suggest that acupuncture may have immune-modulating effects, which could be beneficial for individuals with compromised lymphatic systems.


                    Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT):

  • Reduced Inflammation: LLLT utilizes low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes to stimulate cellular processes. It has shown anti-inflammatory effects, contributing to a reduction in inflammation and, consequently, swelling in lymphedema.
  • Improved Lymphatic Flow: LLLT may enhance lymphatic circulation by promoting the activity of lymphatic vessels, facilitating the drainage of excess fluid.
  • Tissue Repair and Regeneration: LLLT has been suggested to stimulate cellular repair and regeneration, potentially aiding in the healing of tissues affected by lymphedema.
  • Pain Management: Similar to acupuncture, LLLT may have analgesic effects, helping to manage pain associated with lymphedema.

 

The integration of LLLT into lymphedema management shows promise, demonstrating positive effects on fluid reduction, tissue softening, and overall symptom improvement. It has also been use for scare tissue healing. 


We use RAINCORP LASER which has been approved for the use on Post breast cancer surgery lymphedema with the FDA. Please visit this video on youtube on RAINCORP LASER for the use on lymphedema. 



Looking forward in helping you.
