Abstract


It uses a compression and deflection to leg and hand within body tissues.  The purpose of our study was the evaluation of self-reported incidences of lymphedema in breast cancer survivors and the effect of providing the patients with information about lymphedema on the extent to which lymph-drainage massage services and compression garments were used. Lympedema therapy uses air compression to inflect and deflect air in culf. Diathermy uses high-frequency electric current to produce heat deep inside a targeted tissue. It can reach areas as deep as two inches beneath the skins surface.
