The objective of this study is to explore the effectiveness of anma massage therapy for postoperative lymphedema in survivors of gynecologic cancer.
Efficacy
Exploratory
Explanatory
Phase I,II
Lower limb circumference (five circumference measurements: from the head of the first metatarsal to head of the fifth metatarsal; at the ankle, from the lateral to medial malleolus; 5 cm below head of the fibula; 10 cm above the top of the patella; and at the thigh, at the point of the greater trochanter)
We measure before and after the intervention/control duration, and also measure before and after each session.
1) Quality of life, measured using a self-administered questionnaire, the Japanese version of Quality of Life Measurement for Limb Lymphedema (J-LYMQOL).
2) Blood flow velocity in the great saphenous vein, measured using a bidirectional vascular Doppler.
We measure before and after the intervention/control duration.
