Sr Rolene is knowledgable and kind! Her takes the time to listen and truly understand your pain points and shares the why behind the pain before expanding the treatment. I really enjoy her passion and I can see she is so genuine is wanting to help people. After a few days of achey legs during my pregnancy , her drainage massage helped a ton! I highly recommend, you will leave feeling heard and helped !

My wife saw Sr Roelene during her pregnancy for fluid retention and pregnancy-related carpal tunnel syndrome. We were incredibly grateful that she was willing to take on a very pregnant patient, especially after several others were reluctant to do so.

From the very first appointment, she made my wife feel genuinely cared for. She is knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything she was doing, while also teaching practical self-management techniques that made a real difference between appointments.

We are convinced that Sr Roelene’s care made the pregnancy far more comfortable and manageable. Her kindness, expertise and willingness to help had a huge impact on our pregnancy journey.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Sr Roelene to any expectant or new mother. Whether during pregnancy or after birth, she provides outstanding care and truly goes the extra mile for her patients.

Thank you, Roeléne, for your exceptional care and professionalism. After my mastectomy, I struggled with inflammation and lymph drainage issues in my left arm, and your treatment made a significant difference.

Roeléne has a deep understanding of the body and takes a holistic approach that goes far beyond standard lymph drainage. Her treatments were always something I looked forward to, and she offered thoughtful, practical advice that helped me navigate ongoing health challenges.

It was a real loss for me when she moved from Pretoria to Cape Town, as the level of care, excellence, and warmth I experienced with her was truly outstanding. I am very grateful for the support and healing she provided. If you have a health challenge, I can highly recommend making an appointment with her.

I went to Roelene for lymph draining. She has a magic touch and knows exactly where my problem areas were. She is so professional and is incredibly passionate about her work. I wish her practise was still where I live!

What a positive experience. Sr Roelene is so knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She was warm and friendly and put me at ease. I learnt so much about my condition and first steps to manage it. Amazing to be able to see the results of the MLD session immediately. Highly recommended Sr Roelene for a holistic approach to Lymphedema and Lipedema management.

I have have been struggling for the past 4 years with painful, swollen legs. Been through multiple GP visits, rheumatologist, vascular surgeon, dopplers etc etc. The only advice drs and specialists gave me was to lose weight and start compression socks. No one took the time to look at inflammatory markers, address other weight gain issues, etc etc. This left me hopeless and to a certain degree depressed. And my health was just spiraling downwards. I then started researching and could identify with online articles related to either lipedema, lymphedema or even chronic venous insufficiency. I could relate to the online pictures and symptoms ( pain , tenderness, fatigue etc etc) and then "self diagnosed " myself, but was still very much confused , hopeless and desperate for real answers. I then stumbled upon Sr Roelene's page on Facebook. I was so relieved and had my first appointment on the 23rd of June 2026. My session with Sr Roelene was a prayer answered...she was so kind, friendly and professional. High qualified and knowlegeable about the topics of lympedema and lipedema. She put all the pieces . These topics are not very common in he medical field, but she explained it in very simple way for me to understand. And for the first time in four years i was actually feeling that someone was finally listening to me without rushing the process and with no judgment. Our first session was a whole 2 hours long for only R1100. Previous specialist sessions costed me R1600 for a 15minute talk, and still i left with nothing! Sr Roelene treated me with a holistic approach, did a physical assessment, drew up a treatment care plan for me, did a lymphatic massage , introduced me to annual lymphatic drainage pump and gave me some tools/home exercises to continue at home . I appreciated the health education so much . Post treatment I felt light , less tender and could feel how the swelling subsided. Emotionally I felt so relieved , less hopeless and empowered. I would highly recommend Sr Roelene services if you stuck with any swollen body issues. She is a answered prayer to me. And with her help im excited to get my life back ❤

I went for lymph therapy at Sister Roelene in 2024. She is a warm and friendly kind person and very proffesional in what she does. She is the most careing person I met in a long time and and I felt safe in her presence. I felt much healthier after my lymph treatment and Sister Roelene became a friend. I moved to another province and yet still we have a chat every now and then. I highly recommend her. Her services is more than just treatment it becomes a precious friendship.
