““Karen is a very caring and competent lymphedema therapist. I had been dealing with chronic knee pain for three years and no one seemed to be able to help me, but her expertise resulted in developing a program for me that very quickly started yielding results. I am so grateful to her for improving my well-being. I am starting to walk again with very little (dare I say?) pain.””

I truly know that without your assessment of my lymphedema that I would not have taken the actions that you advised, and would not be on the road to recovery, as I feel I am. Your clarity, your understanding of your field, your sensitivity to my quirks and creativity in finding ways that improve both the lymphedema and fit with the specifics of my life have been beyond compare.

““Thank you for your warm and supportive presence during the wondrous birth of my daughter. It meant a lot to us. I was so glad to be able to hold your hand when my baby went down the hall with the pediatrician. I still felt connected to my baby with you there. I also want to thank you for guiding me through so much personal growth on your healing table. As I navigate my path, I daily think of things I learned with you. Most recently, I’ve been remembering lessons about self-care and of recognizing a surface scratch versus an old wound. Love always.””
