Breast cancer and early detection

We understand that the journey following mastectomy and reconstruction involves various aspects of care, and we want to guide you through the essential role of your lymphoedema therapist, Tamryn. Tamryn is equipped with advanced tools and therapies to support you in the early prevention and detection of lymphoedema, ensuring comprehensive care throughout your radiation and chemotherapy.
Early Prevention and Detection with Cutting-Edge Technology SOZO Bioimpedance Machine: Tamryn uses the SOZO Bioimpedance Machine, a state-of-the-art technology that aids in early detection of lymphoedema. It provides valuable insights into your body composition, allowing for proactive measures to prevent and manage lymphoedema effectively. Understanding the fluid shifts that take place in the body is crucial for the early detection, management, and monitoring of chronic diseases. Lymphoedema, frequently triggered by cancer or cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, is a particularly feared consequence of cancer treatment, especially among breast cancer survivors.
Lymph Scanner: Tamryn uses the Lymph Scanner, capable of measuring localised percentage water content (PWC) in the earliest stages of lymphoedema. This hand-held device is developed specifically for lymphoedema detection and can track treatment-related effects on human skin. The method is invaluable after surgeries for breast cancer, gynaecological cancers, and melanoma. It assists in forming clinical judgments of lymphoedema at any skin site, with measurement results displayed in seconds after applying the measurement probe on the skin surface.
Comprehensive Therapies for Holistic Care Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD):Tamryn is highly skilled in Manual Lymphatic Drainage, a specialised massage technique aimed at stimulating your lymphatic system. MLD helps to improve lymphatic flow, reduce swelling, and enhance overall circulation.
Skin and Scar Care:Your skin deserves special attention. Tamryn provides guidance on skincare and scar care, ensuring that your skin remains healthy and resilient throughout your treatment.
Compression Therapy:Tailored compression garments, bandages, and wraps are employed to manage swelling and support your lymphatic system. Tamryn ensures that these are customised to your unique needs, promoting comfort and effectiveness.
Empowering You with Knowledge Patient Education:Tamryn believes in empowering you with knowledge. She will guide you through self-management strategies, lifestyle adjustments, and exercises, providing you with the tools to actively participate in your well-being.
Feel free to reach out to Tamryn if you have any questions or concerns. Your journey is unique, and together, we aim for the best possible outcomes for you.
