Fluid retention in your body, also known as edema, can significantly affect your daily life. Think of swelling, a tight or heavy feeling and pain in your limbs. At Fysi we offer specialized edema physiotherapy in Tilburg, aimed at reducing swelling, improving lymphatic drainage and effectively treating fluid retention.
What is edema and how does it develop?
Edema is an accumulation of fluid in the tissue and can have various causes, such as:
- Problems with lymphatic drainage (lymphedema)
- Operations or medical treatments, such as radiation
- Pregnancy or hormonal changes
- Sitting, standing or an inactive lifestyle for long periods of time
Symptoms range from swelling in your legs or arms to a tight and heavy feeling or reduced mobility. Edema can not only be physically taxing, but can also disrupt your daily life. It is therefore important to treat fluid retention effectively.
How does edema physiotherapy work at Fysi?
Our specialized edema physiotherapists in Tilburg fully tailor their treatment to your complaints and situation. Commonly used treatment methods are:
- Manual lymphatic drainage: A gentle massage technique that stimulates the drainage of lymphatic fluid. This helps to reduce swelling and improve blood circulation.
- Compression therapy: By means of pressure bandages or compression stockings we promote the return of fluid. Our therapists also advise you on the effective use of these aids.
- Exercise therapy: Targeted exercises improve blood flow and muscle function. You can also continue to do these exercises at home to maintain your results.
- Self-management and advice: Practical tips on posture, movement and prevention of new fluid retention, so that you can play an active role in your own recovery.
During an intake interview we will discuss your complaints and create a personal treatment plan tailored to your needs.
