On current data there are two main methods of treatment of this disease that include different physical exercises, massage, compression of the edematous tissue and limb bandaging. One of this methods is based on the serial compression of the limb with an intermittent pump that is followed by physical exercises. Another method is known as the complex decongestive therapy (CDP) by Földi. Individual treatment program is worked out for each woman. The positive effect of treatment can be reached after a year of strict adherence to the program.
