About
My name is Peter Hodges and I started LymphedemaAdvice.com in December 2008.
I have been studying the Lymphatic System since 2003 and during that time I have discovered how to heal it, how to reduce Lymphedema Swelling and how to maintain excellent health.
My book “Discover how to Heal Your Lymphatic System and Reduce Swelling caused by Lymphedema” is a culmination of extensive research and first hand experiences spanning over 6 years. I have discovered what most doctors and health practitioners do not even know and that is, how to heal the Lymphatic System and Redcue Lymphedema Swelling.
If you have any questions relating to this book, your health or for any other reason, just email info (at) lymphedemaadvice (dot) com. I return all emails within 24 hours.
My story began 6 years ago when I developed health problems. My lifestyle was not the healthiest and it cetainly took it’s toll on me. I started to get a swelling on my neck and congestion in my throat. The problem persisted and only worsened as time went on.
Not knowing what was wrong, I went to my doctor for a check up. I was told nothing was wrong and was sent away but the problem still persisted.
A short period of time passed before I decided to go back for another assessment. This time more checks and a blood test were performed. The answer again was that there was nothing wrong although, they did say that I had a very high white blood cell count. I was told it was nothing to worry about and sent on my way again. (Now I know that a high white blood cell count means that your body is fighting something such as an infection or something more serious).
Time went by and I was only getting worse. To cut a very long story short, I returned to the doctors many, many times for all sorts of different tests. I had multiple cat scans, a lymph node biopsy where a lymph node was removed from my neck, lymphangiogram test and much more. I was tested to the max. I did find out that I had no “serious” health conditions but I was never told what was wrong with my body.
I became depressed at the thought of going back to the doctors just for another test for them to tell me nothing was wrong, when I knew there was.
So, I took matters into my own hands and gave up on the medical system and moved into natural healing. I spent the following years trying to find the treatment which would cure my condition, the supplement that would heal me. It never came. I spent thousands of dollars on treatments and supplements over the years and I never came across the “magic pill” that would cure me.
After having many sessions with chiropractors, acupuncture, reflexology, lymphatic drainage massages, chinese herbs, meditation, deep breathing exercises, vegetarian diet, light beam generator and still much more… I was tied of searching, spending money and travelling trying to find cures. But I persisted still and after 6 years I finally learnt enough about my body to discover what my health problem was. It was a severely congested lymphatic system.
After these 6 years I had discovered so much about the human body, the lymphatic system and what it takes to heal, that I could now create my own “magic pill” cure.
As soon as I knew what I was doing, I began to take immediate action to heal myself.
Over the years I had actually made the problem worse and caused other health problems as a direct result of my treatments and supplements. That was an important lesson to learn. But at last, I knew what I was doing.
My healing began! I had a clear plan of what I needed to do in order to heal my body and I started implementing it.
Knowing what I know now, everything is so clear and easy to understand. I was so naive before to health and the human body. I think we all are naive until we really have to learn and understand our body and good health.
Now when I see the general public and the ailments they are suffering from, I know that it all comes down to being naive and a simple lack of knowledge about our bodies. So many lives could be saved or improved through a better understanding of our own body’s but most people never want to learn until they have to or it’s too late.
So after these 6 years, I had an excellent understanding of how the body works and what health is all about. I understood the lymphatic system ,how it works and how it heals itself and the importance it plays in our overall health. If your lymphatic sysetm is ill, then so are you. Your whole body will suffer.
With a deeper understanding of the lymphatic system I became aware of lymphedema and the terrible suffering involved. I studied the condition and understood how it was caused and what the treatments were but just like my condition, the doctors do not know this stuff and the advice given to lymphedema sufferers is (there’s no other way to put it but) pathetic. There is so much lymphedema suffferers can do, yet they are never made aware of it, so they suffer year after year believing there is nothing that can be done.
I have suffered, not to the same degree but I have suffered with bad health and a lack of help and guidance from doctors, so I can get a sense of what it must be like for lymphedema sufferers.
I also knew that what I did to heal my lymphatic system would work just the same to heal lymphedema sufferers as it’s all related. I decided then that I would put together a course which focuses on just what works in healing the lymphatic system and reducing lymphedema swelling. It is called
“Discover How to Heal Your Lymphatic System and Reduce Swelling caused by Lymphedema”.
The title says it all!
