Testimonials

“I have had the pleasure of dealing with Desiree for over 12 months now.  Having been diagnosed with Cancer, I was faced with the daunting prospect of 6 cycles of chemo.  Although my first appointment was attended reluctantly (being a male!) and the basics of lymphatic drainage went over my head, I can honestly say from the first treatment I managed to cope with chemo reasonably well.  When my energy levels were down, Desiree picked them up, and when I needed to rest and recover, Desiree helped me achieve this also.  Working on my adrenal glands, Desiree was even able to slow down my heart from racing.

My oncologist called me heroic for being able to continue to play squash while undergoing chemo.  These treatments, along with endless tips and supplementary advice, helped me achieve extensive oesophagus surgery within 6 months.  Three months after major surgery I was back playing squash. 

Desiree is always researching products and techniques that will benefit her clients and has worked closely with top health professionals around the world.  For these reasons I have no hesitation in recommending her and I will continue to seek treatment to help maintain my lymphatic system and overall well-being of my health”

“I am a 39 year old woman who was diagnosed with Grade 3 cancer in the left breast and underwent a breast wide local excision and sentinel node biopsy. My surgeon warned me of lymphoedema due to the the removal of nodes. I investigated treatment options for the prevention of lymphoedema and was recommended by numerous people to consult with Desiree De Spong.

I have found Desiree to have an extended understanding and drive to unlock the boundaries of the classical medical model of treatment.  Desiree is dedicated to education and the education of others. She participates in research and researching articles in this field. Desiree is in regular discussion with other professionals and listens to her clients needs. During our treatment periods Desiree not only has treated the potential for lymphoedema but has assisted me with the side effects of Chemotherapy, hot flushes due to menopause, nausea, nutrition and cancer education which health professionals often omit to provide. All information she has given me was supported by appropriate journals and articles.

I believe lymphatic treatment has been an essential element to my recovery”
