24.01.2022 Do you have lipoedema and want to make a difference in lipoedema awareness month? You can join Prof John-Paul Belgrado's research study and fill in the lipoedema questionnaire https://survey.ulb.ac.be/survey3/index.php/631392?lang=en

24.01.2022 We all need motivation to keep self management going. COVID-19 is seriously affecting motivation in everyone I meet and treat at the moment. This presentation really lifted me up. He has primary lymphoedema but what he discusses is relatable for all lymphatic disorders including Lipoedema. https://lymphaticnetwork.org//keynote-living-through-the-t

22.01.2022 If I have diagnosed you with Lipoedema you can help with this research into lippy pain

18.01.2022 An oldie but a goodie for Lipoedema awareness month

15.01.2022 This is why it's a really exciting time to be researching and working with lipoedema sufferers - numbers of published papers this year has almost tripled since 2015 #lipoedema #lipedema #somanypapers #happyresearcher

15.01.2022 June is Lipoedema awareness month. I started the month one day early by presenting on Lipoedema at the virtual ALA conference, highlighting all the different shapes and sizes that Lipoedema comes in. What are you doing for Lipoedema awareness month?

15.01.2022 Day 1 of ALA virtual conference is fantastic. The presentations are available for access for the next month and you can still register if you haven't already done so

14.01.2022 Lipoedema is now thought not to be not just a simple adipose tissue disorder, but a loose connective tissue disease. This video shows where connective tissue fibrosis occurs between fat cells in Lipoedema. Warning I use raw meat in this video explanation

13.01.2022 Week 1 of both myself and all clients wearing masks for appointments has taught me that very few people wear masks correctly. So here is a video showing you how to wear a mask properly and how to create the seal with the metal nose strip. Feel free to share this as so many Melbournians are walking around with ill fitting masks thinking they are safe when they might as well not have one on

12.01.2022 I hear you BLS- it is truely exhausting to walk with oedematous legs no matter what the cause

12.01.2022 Finally more funding for lymphoedema

12.01.2022 If you are considering liposuction for lymphoedema or Lipoedema this slide shows you why I feel it’s important to choose your surgeon carefully

10.01.2022 Need 2 different sizes of shoes due to foot swelling? At last somewhere that can help

10.01.2022 Learn more about the Telehealth appointments I have available here

10.01.2022 Why I am wearing surgical mask for your face to face consultation and why you need one too. If you cannot source a surgical mask you can wear a cloth one

10.01.2022 #blsconf2020 you know you are a lymphomaniac when you are happy to join the virtual UK lymphoedema conference at 7pm after a long day of work and dealing with home schooling. So excited to hear Tobias Bertsch speak on Lipoedema and obesity and Kristiana Gordon speak on Paediatric lymphoedema tonight Its going to be a late one but SO worth it

09.01.2022 Interesting QandA from the BLS conference with Tobias Bertsch on obesity and lipoedema. Tobias has very differing views to Karen Herbst. Hopefully my PhD will help prove which hypothesis is the right one. Watch this space

09.01.2022 Yes it’s still Lipoedema awareness month. Here is a great opportunity for patients to tap into - free webinars on Lipoedema- American Eastern Standard Time

09.01.2022 Inspiration from an inspirational lippy lady from my neck of the woods to celebrate the end of Lipoedema awareness month

09.01.2022 Legs matter is a great page and website for all those with chronic leg swelling whatever the cause- so many educational resources. Their latest post is guided meditations for relaxation and pain management. We could all do with that here in Melbourne. The time is UK time which equates to 6.30pm for us- what a lovely thing to do this Friday night

09.01.2022 I’ve just downloaded COVIDsafe to keep both me, my family and all my wonderful clients safe. Join me in stopping the spread of COVID-19! The more Australians that Download COVIDSafe, an app from the Australian Government, the quicker they can find potentially infected people, isolate them quicker and hopefully this lockdown can end sooner. #COVID19 #coronavirusaustralia #stayhomesavelives https://covidsafe.gov.au

08.01.2022 Breaking news- Telehealth appointments are here to stay . Something good has come out of this pandemic at last. Medibank and BUPA have announced they will fund phone and videoconference appointments for Physiotherapy indefinitely. This is such good news if you live far away, can’t get into the practice or don’t want to take time away from work or carers commitments to attend in person.... I can do SO much for Lipoedema and lymphoedema or oncology rehabilitation with these type of consultations- give Telehealth a go and see what can be achieved

07.01.2022 Want a chance to win $500? If you’ve had a Telehealth appointment with me you are eligible for this study and go into the draw

06.01.2022 Obesity leads to poorer outcome is you develop covid19 but according to Karen Herbst if you have pure Lipoedema with no abdominal obesity things are different. Check out her discussion with Dr Thomas Wright here

04.01.2022 I take your health very seriously hence my new look at the clinic. Department of health now recommends masks to be worn for close encounter treatment here in Melbourne. Lymphatic care definitely fits that category so if you choose to come in for your appointment rather than taking the Telehealth option, you need to wear a mask too. Don’t worry if you haven’t got one- I can sell you one when you arrive.

02.01.2022 Everyone I’m seeing at the clinic are emotionally burned out from the stress and impact of our prolonged lockdowns. This is showing up as an increase in comfort or emotionally eating in many. Take some time to watch this video to help combat emotional eating forever

01.01.2022 Fascia and stretching /fascial release massage are really important parts of your therapy after surgery and radiotherapy to ensure return of normal function and elimination of pain. Fascial tightness after cancer therapy can also increase the risk of lymphoedema. I’ve created this video to help you understand the fascial system- WARNING I USE RAW MEAT IN THIS VIDEO. I’ve been talking about making this video for years so this is a lockdown goal achieved
