Monica
Rochelle is incredible. She helped me through a very tough and painful time post double mastectomy. From the minute we spoke, I felt cared for and understood. I was suffering from painful lymphedema and Rochelle’s skill, kindness and knowledge truly helped heal me. I don’t know what I would have done without her. Thank you Rochelle, for helping me through this cancer recovery. I am so grateful I found her.
Jazmin
Had the best time ever getting lymphatic work done with Rochelle. She is very intuitive and careful with injuries, surgeries, etc. It was very obvious early on that she cares a lot about what you are going through and I felt that I had complete trust in her. Recovery was sped up under her care. I feel that if I had seen someone else that my recovery would have taken a lot longer. She also completely prevented any kind of complications carried over from previous injuries from manifesting into anything worse. Really great with reducing scarring and preventing infection. I think she’s gotta be the best of the best.
Ryan
Life saver for me! Lymphedema is an underappreciated cause for slow and partial healing. In my case, just a few visits with Rochelle put me on a path to complete recovery after months of stagnation. She educated me about the landscape provided the tools I needed and did great hands on.
Gail

I want to applaud Rochelle Brannan for her outstanding lymphatic care,  Her knowledge of lipedema helped me to clarify more clearly my condition. The deep lymphatic massage was very effective and not painful. She used Deep Oscillating therapy which helped to move the lymph around in my legs and relieve the tightness and discomfort.
She gave me excellent advice for follow up and maintenance. She was very kind, supportive and prompt for the appointment.
I look forward to seeing her again and would highly recommend her to anyone dealing with lipedema/lymphedema.

Kristy

Rochelle is a bright spot in the cancer journey! Her empathy, and patience to explain what she was doing and why were so appreciated. Rochelle was able to give me “tools” to help in recovery from surgery and radiation, that I continue to use today, one year post chemotherapy, surgery and radiation. Having a therapist close to home that was certified in oncology and lymphedema therapy were priceless! I highly recommend Rochelle, when you need Oncologic or Lymphedema Physical Therapy.

Christine
I had no idea that lymphedema would be an issue following cancer surgery. I healed quickly from the surgery at the cancer site but the lasting pain and difficulty from the leg swelling and the additional surgical site for lymph removal were an unappreciated and unexpected complication! I saw two lymphedema therapists before I got a physician referral to West .Cliff. What a positive difference in attention, caring, thoroughness, and success that Rochelle brought to my healing adventure. I’m so grateful for her!
