[Complex decongestive physiotherapy (CDP)].
Abstract
Complex decongestive physiotherapy (CDP) is a representative conservative treatment for lymph edema symptoms conducted by combination of various physical therapies. In the mid-twentieth century, Dr. Michael Foeldi structured CDP. Regular treatments by CDP will relieve lymph edema symptoms as well as mental and physical distress, leading to enhancement of ADL and QOL. In Europe, CDP is served by close tie-up of physiotherapists and massotherapists under supervision of medical doctors. For effective CDP, early start of the treatment and full guidance of life style are recommended.
