Subject: Jane B.
Patient consulted her physician for enlarged breast. Physician stated that it was not a malignant tumor but a sever care of mastitis.

Age: 54

Symptoms: Jane came to us with sever swelling of the left breasts. Approximant size was that of a large bowling ball.

Assessment: Patients assessment form was reviewed with the patient. All questions were addressed.
Therapist palpated under and around her breast, under the arms, neck and abdomen. No lumps or enlargement of nodes were found.

Treatment:
Feb. 3rd: Manual lymph massage to the neck, armpit, and abdomen. Applied the LymphStar-Pro on setting 4 to the breast. One bulb placed under the axilla and the other bulb used in circular motion on the left enlarged breast for 6min.
Next: Placed one bulb on parasternal lymph nodes and worked the lower part of the enlarged breast for 6 min.

Results: Measurable decrease in swelling in girth of the enlarged breast. The skin was visible looser and patient stated that the area (breast) felt “so much better.” Totally lost in girth and diameter was 3.5cm. Patient reported substantial decrease in inflammation and “an increase in energy.”

Recommendation:
Patient advised to drink fluid throughout the day after treatment. Asked to report any changes in condition. Appointment made for a follow-up in three days. Patient was told to continue to follow-up with her physician.
