12.01.2022 One of the joys of learning bandaging is you get lots of practice rolling up bandages!

12.01.2022 What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) I hear you ask....Well, MLD is a gentle manual treatment technique that enhances lymph flow. Using a combination of strokes, pressure is applied to lymph structures directly under the skin so that lymph fluid movement can be rerouted from areas of high volume to areas of low volume. As the lymph structures lie under the skin, the pressure applied is similar to the pressure you would use to stroke a newborn's head.

01.01.2022 Some info on treatment options for Lymphoedema: Best practice management has a holistic multidisciplinary approach and is provided by qualified lymphoedema therapists. The treatment method is conservative and in Australasia is termed Complex Lymphoedema Therapy (CLT). Older alternative terminologies are Complex Physical Therapy (CPT) or Complex Decongestive therapy (CDT). CLT consists of the following components... Education Skin care Exercise Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) Compression therapy Treatment is individualized for each client and not all components of treatment may be necessary in all cases. Those with mild lymphoedema may only require education, exercise and skin care whereas for more severe cases treatment may be longer and require two phases. Phase I is an intensive treatment provided by a trained lymphoedema therapist followed by Phase II, which is self management that the client continues at home. With improved health education people are reporting early limb changes promptly and this is contributing to a reduction in the need for intensive treatments.
