Marie McGowan brings a wealth of medical expertise to this interview. She’s a Certified Lymphedema Therapist, a Senior Therapist at Prisma Health in South Carolina, as well as a Physical Therapist.

Her unique empathy and passion to help lymphedema patients are, in part, because of her own lipedema diagnosis. This hope-filled conversation covers how to find the right therapist, being your own advocate, and making sure you listen to your body and seek out innovative treatments to help you manage your condition, whether it is lymphedema or lipedema.

A host of resources to help are contained in this interview as well as Marie’s contact information. Her parting words: “Give yourself grace.”

The Lymphedema Channel and The Lipedema Channel interviews are brought to you by Lympha Press, global leaders in pneumatic compression therapy for nearly 40 years. Find out more at www.medsolsupplier.com.
