The lymphatic system is a network of tissues, vessels and organs that work together to move a colorless, watery fluid called lymph back into your circulatory system (your bloodstream). If any areas of the lymphatic system are removed, damaged or not working properly, the lymph fluid cannot be returned to the blood stream in a normal way. This leads to problems with swelling, cellulitis, pain, and difficulty moving the body, among other unpleasant issues. Lymphedema is a chronic and progressive condition, but can be treated with skilled therapy. TCO offers expert therapists trained as Certified Lymphedema Therapists (CLT) to assist patients in managing the effects of lymphedema. Patients can expect a combination of manual therapy, compression garments, multilayered low stretch bandaging, education, and exercise to be provided to improve or resolve the effects of lymphedema.

Fascia is a layer of connective soft tissue that resides under the skin. Fascia is composed of collagen and elastin fibers and it functions to help connect our muscles, bones, organs and entire body into functional units. Due to overuse, injury, surgery, aging, dehydration, and other metabolic issues, fascia may become inflamed, scarred, or dysfunctional. When this occurs, it may lead to restricted movement, problems with posture, or increased pain. Certain manual therapy techniques known as myofascial release, in combination with other modalities and exercise can be very useful in regaining function, improving motion, and reducing pain.
