by Kathleen Helen Lisson (Author)
Lymphedema isn't just 'too much fluid in the wrong place.' Chronic lymphedema can cause both physical effects in the tissue and psychological stress, and both can worsen as lymphedema progresses. Stress Reduction for Lymphedema takes a look at published research on mind-body practices that may reduce the negative effects of stress in people with lymphedema, with step-by-step instructions so you can try many of the practices yourself or with a caregiver or loved one.
Stress reduction activities include:
Breathwork protocols recommended for people with lymphedema
Mindfulness exercises from a lymphedema program in India
Holistic practices including acupuncture for people with lymphedema and a progressive muscle relaxation routine that may improve the effects of decongestive therapy
Movement-based activities like qi gong and taiso for upper limb lymphedema and yoga for upper and lower limb lymphedema
This book is a must-read for people with lymphedema looking for evidence-based approaches to reduce the symptoms of stress.
"Throughout these pages, you will embark on a journey of self-discovery, gaining a deeper understanding of how stress influences lymphedema" - Veronica Poncio Seneriz "With a focus on the promotion of positive healthful behaviors, readers will find support and solidarity with Lisson's optimistic, hands-on approach to relieving everyday stress associated with lymphedema. An inspirational, accessible handbook emphasizing self-compassion and effective stress reduction." - Kirkus Reviews
