“In my cancer rehab practice, I regularly field questions about how to prevent lymphedema.
These questions are often driven by fear that is amplified by conflicting online information.”

Knowledge is POWER
Medical evidence supports early identification of lymphedema through a prospective surveillance model.
This means monitoring common side effects, like swelling, on a regular basis, especially throughout the first few years following cancer diagnosis.
However, this model of care is not yet widely implemented.
This is why we are offering the Lymphedema Smart Workshop; to bridge this gap and empower people affected by cancer to take immediate action to reduce their risk, self-monitor, and seek assistance if lymphedema concerns arise.
