Summary
The purpose of this study is to establish optimal guidelines for Manual Lymphatic Drainage in participants with lower extremity lymphedema.
Detailed description
To determine if there is a difference in L-Dex Score and Segmental Limb Volume in participants with lower extremity lymphedema as measured in liters by the SOZO machine between participants who receive Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) techniques utilizing light tactile pressure with 5-10 mmHg without skin stretch versus medium tactile pressure of 11-20 mmHg and medium skin stretch with therapist in a stationary position, versus firm tactile pressure (\> 21 mmHg) and maximal skin stretch with therapist weight shift.
