Can I use The Lymphatic Brush if I have edema?
Yes, The Lymphatic Brush can definitely be used if you have edema, as long as it’s not heart edema (congestive heart failure).
You can lightly brush directly on and over the edema, but it is important to focus treatment on the lymph node clusters above the edema.
Use caution and alter treatment if you have:
Bronchitis: don’t use directly over sternum
Menstruation: can make period heavier
Nevus (Raised Mole): work around
Low Blood Pressure: be careful of over-use, do shorter sessions
Hyperactive Thyroid: do not work on thyroid directly
Do not use if you have:
Active cancer
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
Acute infection or inflammation
