EDEMA (SWOLLEN ANKLES / LEGS)

I can’t remember the last time I was able to see my ankles. My caregiver of two years said she has never seen my ankles until now!

I want to thank you ever so much for introducing me to the Treadwell® System. It has helped me not only feel better physically but mentally also. I can actually see my ankle bones for the first time since 2003. And when one starts to see so much improvement in 7 days they feel so much better about themselves. ... the Treadwell System is the answer to my prayers. Thank you again!

Two weeks after having (venous) by-pass surgery on my right leg the swelling was severe. I used the Treadwell System for twenty minutes twice the first day, The next morning it was amazing how the swelling was subsiding. It is now six weeks later and using the system has given me much relief. I’m walking twice a day now without cramping, burning or pain – thanks to the Treadwell System.

Due to Charcot Marie Tooth Disease (demyelinating), I have neuropathy with loss of sensation, coordination and muscle strength in both feet and legs. I also have restless leg syndrome. Since using the SitWalking System, I’ve noticed three major improvements.

First, the system works muscles that are not engaged through my regular activities and walking, which increases sensation in my calves and feet. While nothing will stop or cure the progression of nerve and muscle damage, I feel that I am better maintaining what I have left and perhaps slowing down the process.

Second, I’ve noticed a reduction in edema (swelling) in my ankles. Before using the SitWalking System, my ankles would be very swollen by the end of a work day. The swelling is now half what it used to be.

Finally, I’ve seen a marked decrease in Nocturnal Leg Cramping symptoms from 3 to 4 nights per week down to about one night a week. I had been managing these symptoms with medication, which I’d prefer not to take, so I am very pleased that I need it less often. I had just about given up on finding any kind of exercise I could do that would help my legs and feet without causing extreme fatigue — the SitWalking System has been a terrific solution for me. Thanks so much for creating this system!

I saw the swelling of my mother's ankles go down in one day by using the SitWalking System. Clayton H.
