Abstract

Chronic venous insufficiency is a common condition categorized by ever-increasing incidence, prevalence, and recurrence, despite treatment. Older individuals (adults 65 years of age and older) are most affected in terms of diagnosis and severity. Guidelines discussed include disease characterization and dictation of adequate treatment to prevent ulceration or profound infectious disease. The adjunctive role of OMT is summarized as well with an emphasis on maintaining functional independence of this vulnerable population.
