Teri

Now you are in the myth busting business
You are right that the mayo clinic dealt with lympadema of the arms and legs, not the neck. Good thing since the compression garments used on the arms and legs are hard to place without choking a patient.
Exercise and massage for lymphadema in the neck were recommended to me by my CCC. I know there have been lots and lots of studies done in Australia on this. Most doctors just lump it into physical therapy, unfortunately insurance companies don't.
I think massage therapy with actual hands on (not waving energy around like Reiki) is pretty conventional medicine.
My post was more in a teasing nature, as yours was
