Lymphedema Short-Stretch Compression Bandaging Session

Lymphedema Short-Stretch Compression Bandaging Session- approx. .5- 1 hour
Our Short-Stretch Compression Bandaging Treatment Session provides specialized care for individuals managing lymphedema. During your visit, a certified therapist will:

• Apply multilayer short-stretch compression bandages to support decongestion

• Teach proper bandaging techniques for safe home management (by training self wrapping or caregiver wrapping)

• Provide education on wear time, skin care, and garment transition planning. The goal of these sessions are to reduce the limb for a compression garment in order for the patient to manage swelling long term. This is a short term, intensive phase to prepare the client for long term self management. 

Short-stretch compression bandaging is a cornerstone of Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT). It delivers sustained pressure, reduces fluid buildup and fibrosis (skin hardening), improves circulation, and prepares the limb for long-term management with compression garments.  

Please call or email for questions. Follow up session pricing will be based on the estimated time required to perform re-assessment and bandaging from initial evaluation. This session can not be booked online and will be manually scheduled with the therapist at time of the consult.
