Quad Rivas Therapy has been developed by Alyna Eekma from the Netherlands for over thirteen years; anecdotally she has been able to significantly reduce lipedema SAT in women with Stage 1 and 2 lipedema, and can reduce lipedema SAT by 80% in women with Stage 3 lipedema. The study will last for one month, for a total of 12 treatments per subject, seven subjects total, to see if there is a change in percent body fat percentage over the course of these treatments.
