4.0 out of 5 stars Safe, effective exercise for Breast cancer/ Lymphedema, March 8, 2009

By	Lymph Action "NJ Lymphedema Therapist" (Central NJ) - See all my reviews

As a certified lymphedema therapist, I was interested in learning more about the Lebed method, and have already started incorporating these moves into the exercise programs I give my patients. After seeing this DVD, I am thinking about getting certified in Lebed method. I would highly recommend this DVD to people with upper or lower extremity lymphedema, and those treated for breast cancer who are at risk for developing lymphedema. The exercises are slow, safe, and effective and the instructor has a positive, upbeat attitude that it makes it fun. Also includes instruction on diaphragmatic breathing to stimulate lymphatic duct, and the importance of wearing compression while exercising. I hope to see this DVD become a series!

Slow paced arm workout for breast cancer/lymph node surgery survivors. Relieves pain and tightness through exercise. Those confined to a chair would also find the workout out useful.
