LPG supports Breast Cancer Survivors

Reclaiming Beauty, Self-Esteem and Confidence

Dubai, UAE, October 24, 2015: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. 1 in 8 women is affected by breast cancer. Despite the high incidence rates, there is a high survival rate if it is detected early and treatment is administered.

LPG Systems is highly involved and supportive of patients and gives them the tools designed to bring both hope and information to overcome their fears and assure them there can be life, beauty, femininity, and motherhood, even after breast cancer.

After dealing with the initial shock of the diagnosis, and following radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatments, the time comes to begin the healing of scars, both emotional and physical. This is when an LPG physiotherapist or specialist comes in, to help with reconstruction and rehabilitation.

Most people are unaware that the role of a physiotherapist is essential at this stage; it allows women to progressively reclaim their body. It’s also at this stage that LPG becomes indispensable.

For over 30 years, LPG has been developing medical devices for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes that offer 100% natural treatments to treat connective tissue. LPG is highly involved in post-breast cancer treatment and provides physiotherapists and their patients with protocols for specific treatments (fibrosis, scarring, lymphedema, posture, amongst others) through its two proprietary technologies: the Cellu M6 and the HUBER MOTION LAB.

CELLU M6 TO HELP RELIEVE FUNCTIONAL PROBLEMS
With its unique way of mobilizing the skin, CELLU M6 brings about the quick and painless management of sensitive tissue.
Thanks to its draining and defibrosing properties, clinical results in breast-cancer post-treatment can rapidly be observed.

Patients who have been treated experience positive results such as:
• Skin, hardened by radiation, gains flexibility and elasticity.
• The quick and delicate mobilization of tissue reduces inflammation and facilitates the scarring process.
• The technique frees up adhesions and stimulates blood flow, without pain or trauma.
• While fitting an implant, treatments also help prevent adhesion.
• The draining effect obtained with Cellu M6 is 3 times faster than the one obtained through a manual lymphatic drainage.

THE LPG HUBER MOTION LAB : A GENTLE PATH TO RECLAIMING YOUR BODY
The LPG HUBER MOTION LAB gently eases your body back into movement. Joints and muscles are progressively targeted to relieve tension and regain strength and flexibility. During post-cancer rehabilitation, the HUBER MOTION LAB benefits are endless, especially when it comes to resuming the physical activity so strongly recommended to combat relapses.

The patient regains movement and can reintegrate her upper limb into her overall body image. She quickly regains shoulder mobility and thus prevents postural problems.
