"Extra is my ordinary."
Today, Elise Sasso sweeps you up with her effervescence, creativity, and joy in life.
Creativity and artistry were the keys to emerging from a dark place because of her lipedema and lymphedema.
Be inspired by her "medical roller coaster" story. At one point she was 410 pounds, faced bouts of cellulitis, and couldn't even look at herself in the mirror. Once finally diagnosed, she discovered tools - like her Lympha Press - to manage her condition effectively. She says, "It's easy to use, easy to clean, and the relief is GREAT."
Elise urges those with lipolymphedema to "channel their energy" into something positive and to know that they don't have to stay in a dark place.
