Lipödem

Effective help for swollen legs. Millions of women in Germany suffer from lipedema. These fat deposits in the subcutaneous tissue, especially in the legs, not only pose an aesthetic problem for those affected but also come with severe pain. Women are sensitive to touch and tend to bruise easily from minor bumps. Early recognition of lipedema is crucial, and it should not be dismissed as cellulite or merely a cosmetic issue. Dr. Thomas Weiss has developed effective methods as one of the first doctors: decongestion through vacuum massages, special massage techniques, and compression treatments. In combination with these, he recommends dietary changes and explains how the right kind of exercise can alleviate symptoms. In this book, he presents a 14-day self-help program, including recipes.
