Lipedema Care with #EncoreRehab at Ocean Springs Neurological Rehabilitation Center

“Sometimes all you have to do is ask the questions. I thought my body was just weird and disproportioned, because no matter how much weight I lost I could see that my legs and arms would not align with the rest of my body. I talked to my doctor about it, and long story, I was diagnosed with Lymphedema due to Lipedema.

“When I started working with Jaime, the Occupational Therapist, I started to realize I wasn’t alone and many aren’t aware of Lipedema – let alone knowing there was treatment available.

“Weeks of Occupational Therapy, getting my legs and arms moving, along with lymphatic massages, compression wraps and the proper compression garments, I have not only increased my knowledge and awareness, but I have restored my confidence as well.” – Brandy Murdock, Ocean Springs Neurological Rehabilitation patient

June is Lipedema Awareness Month!

Lipedema is a chronic condition primarily affecting women, characterized by a disproportionate buildup of fat and is often misunderstood or misdiagnosed. It causes painful, abnormal build up of fat, typically in the legs, hips and under arms. Despite diet and exercise, the affected areas remain disproportionately enlarged.

Common Symptoms:

-Symmetrical swelling in legs or upper arms

-Pain or easy bruising in the affected areas

-Fat that does not respond to weight loss

Early diagnoses and treatment can help!

Effective Occupational Therapy treatment is available at Ocean Springs Neurological Rehabilitation to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

-Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

-Compression Therapy

-Specialized exercise programs

-Education on home programs/maintenance programs

If interested in treatment or learning more, contact our office at 228-818-1207.

“I needed help with bad, hurting knees. My doctor referred me to Encore Rehabilitation-Leakesville and I’m so glad I used Encore for my Physical Therapy! I have more mobility and a lot less pain. The exercises became easier, my walking is better and my posture is also better. It is unbelievable how much my balance improved!

“I highly recommend Encore. They are efficient, knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and compassionate.” ~ Rachel Howard, happy patient

Fusion to Friendship at Encore Rehabilitation-Jasper!

From Fusion to Friendship!

These three gentlemen started Physical Therapy at our clinic as strangers, each recovering from spinal fusion surgery. Week by week, they showed up, pushed through the hard days, encouraged each other—and somewhere along the way, they became more than just patients… they became friends.

Now, you’ll rarely see one of them in the clinic without the others. They cheer each other on during exercises, share stories, and bring laughter to the clinic every visit!

Healing isn’t just physical—it’s emotional and relational too. And these guys are proof that sometimes, recovery brings more than strength… it brings brotherhood.

From walker races to cheering each other through challenging exercises, they turned rehab into a shared journey—and Physical Therapy into a team sport!

We’re incredibly proud of the progress each of them has made—not just in their recovery, but in the way they’ve lifted one another every step of the way.

Here’s to healing, humor, and the power of community!

Ms. Lincoln is Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation-Athens!

“I would give Encore the highest rating-10 stars! Thank you!”

We’re excited to recognize Linda Lincoln as our Patient of the Month at Encore Rehabilitation – Athens! After undergoing total knee replacement surgery due to arthritis in her knee, Ms. Lincoln has worked hard to reach full recovery.

“Each Physical Therapist encouraged me and gave me all the exercises I needed to get back to 100% after my complete knee replacement. Each Physical Therapist is very efficient and the PT Technician that helps is also. The Rehab Team has given me the quality of care that I needed.”

Ms. Lincoln came to us on the recommendation of her orthopedic surgeon, who shared that Encore would have her back up in no time! Thanks to Ms. Lincoln’s diligence with following her rehab program, she is now back to doing the things she loves!

“I would recommend Encore to anyone needing rehab for any Physical Therapy needs. The staff is outstanding and really care about their patients and their healing. I’m glad to go back to a pain-free life!”

Congratulations, Ms. Lincoln! We’re proud to be part of your recovery journey!
