Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Multi-waved Locked System Laser	The M6 therapy laser is a robotized multi-target device designed to treat patients suffering pathologies affecting a wide area, and to perform automatic applications.
DEVICE	Cold Compression therapy	The BioCryo Cold Compression System is a cold therapy pneumatic compression device that safely administers sequential, gradient pneumatic compression and CryoTherapy combined.
OTHER	complete decongestive therapy	Complete decongestive therapy consists of: * Meticulous skin care with the use of emollients * Using short stretch bandages or continuous wearing of a pressure garment * Manual lymphatic drainage therapy * Remedial exercises (e.g., aerobic exercise, strength training, and stretching exercises)
