How to cure Yasmin Brunet disease, which affects 12% of Brazilian women

Learn more about lipedema and discover the main treatment methods

Lipedema, characterized by excessive accumulation of fat on the legs, thighs, buttocks and even arms, affects 12% of Brazilian women, including famous ones, like Yasmin Brunet. The BBB 24 participant revealed in a conversation with her siblings that she suffers from the disease and wants to undergo surgery.

This condition can lead to physical and cosmetic pain and discomfort. However, many patients end up opting, due to lack of knowledge, only for the surgical method, i.e. liposuction. According to experts, lipo should only be indicated in severe cases. In this process, massage therapy has proven to be a great ally in the treatment.

Massage therapy specialist Ana Martha, of TopCorpus, lists some benefits of massage in treating lipedema.

Reduction of swelling

Massage therapy is particularly effective in reducing swelling, relieving the feeling of heaviness in the legs through lymphatic drainage. The technique stimulates the lymphatic system, helping to remove excess fluids and toxins, resulting in a significant reduction in leg edema.

Pain relief

Many people with lipedema experience discomfort and pain in their legs. Massage therapy can help relieve these symptoms, as the technique promotes muscle relaxation, reduces pressure on tissues and stimulates the release of natural pain-relieving substances in the body.

Improved blood circulation

Massage therapy also helps improve blood circulation in legs affected by lipedema. The gentle stimulation of lymphatic and blood vessels helps increase blood flow, improving tissue oxygenation and promoting cell regeneration.

Greater mobility

Lipedema can limit the mobility and function of the legs. Massage therapy, by reducing swelling and pain, can help improve joint mobility, allowing people with lipedema to move with greater ease and comfort.

Emotional support and well-being

In addition to the physical benefits, massage therapy can offer significant emotional support to those suffering from lipedema. The gentle touch and personalized attention during lymphatic drainage sessions can promote a feeling of care and relaxation, contributing to overall well-being.
