Manual Lymphatic Drainage

22/04/2026

This is so important.
Many therapists claim and do provide lymphatic drainage. But most won’t have one of these four recognised qualifications.
Please check your therapist out and ensure they have the correct qualifications and more importantly the insurance cover for lymphatic conditions. Unless they are trained with one of these four schools they can’t treat lymphoedema or chronic oedema.

MLDUK recognises certifications from only four training providers: Vodder, Földi, Casley Smith, and LTA Fill and Flush.

This means that patients receive consistent, high quality, well-regulated treatment.

Therapists: which provider did you train with?

Manual Lymphatic Drainage does not require the use of oils. It is gentle, skin deep, and works to enhance your lymphatic system's ability to drain fluid

Lymphoedema Awareness Week

We are so proud of the close relationship we share with our good friend Gaynor Leech, Expert Patient Advocate and Founder of the LWO Community. We work with Gaynor all the time, and her dedication to supporting those living with lymphoedema never ceases to inspire us!

As we approach World Lymphoedema Day on March 6th, we are thrilled to share Gaynor's latest article, which takes a fresh, deeply human look at a question we hear so often: What exactly is lymphoedema?.

Gaynor has skilfully simplified the topic, focusing not only on the physical swelling but also on the real lives, challenges, and strengths of those impacted by this often misunderstood condition. Her accessible guide offers a compassionate overview designed to empower both patients and professionals.

Grab a cuppa and take a look…
