Christina, I would find a good doctor of osteopathy who does soft tissue manipulation. I go to one here and when I had edema in my lower legs she did fantastic manual manipulation moving the fluid back up. I finally was able to get over it due to her work and really watching my sodium intake. I still go to her for "tune-ups" for tendinitis and other related "soreness." A good DO will know exactly where to work and it is always gentle. There's some info on manual lymph drainage in regards to on this WIKI PAGE
