Top Low Impact Exercises For Leg Lymphedema - Suitable For ALL Abilities Reduce Swelling Now!

In this video we go through some of the top exercises we can do to reduce fluid retention in the lower extremities. I have compiled my top 9 exercises that you can do at home with no equipment. What is Leg Lymphedema? Lymphoedema is a long-term (chronic) condition that causes swelling in the body's tissues. It can affect any part of the body, but usually develops in the arms or legs. It develops when the lymphatic system does not work properly. The lymphatic system is a network of channels and glands throughout the body that helps fight infection and remove excess fluid. Should I exercise? As long as your doctor or consultant has advised low impact exercise there is no reason why you can not do this plan. Why exercise? A specific exercise program, designed to assist the lymph drainage from your swollen limb is an important part of your overall management for lymphoedema and something that you can do to help yourself. During exercise, the muscle contraction that occurs when the muscles are tensed puts increased pressure on the lymph vessels. This “muscle pump” squeezes the vessels to enhance the lymphatic pumping mechanism which in turn helps to move lymph fluid into and along the lymph vessels, back towards the chest and away from the affected area. There are one-way valves in the deeper lymphatic vessels which help stop backflow and help to direct the lymph fluid centrally away from the limbs towards the trunk. Specific exercises thus help to drain fluid out of a swollen limb. Exercises are also important to maintain mobility of the joints and to stretch and strengthen muscles.
