25.01.2022 Todays article about Lymphoedema in the Mandurah Mail ahead of World Lymphoedema Day & the official opening of MOC by Mayor Rhys Williams.

25.01.2022 If a partner, friend or family member would benefit from one of our oedema treatments, massages, garments or compression pumps, you can now pre-purchase any of these in advance as a gift. Visit our website for more details @ www.mandurahoedema.com.au/vouchers.htm

24.01.2022 Finding a qualified therapist to carry out oedema treatment can be somewhat confusing as there are a number of organisations that teach Manual Lymph Drainage and Combined Decongestive Therapy. In Australia & New Zealand, the best resource is the National Lymphoedema Practitioners Register (NLRP) maintained by the Australaisian Lymphology Association. NLRP practitioners undergo extensive lymphoedema training and maintain their expertise through continuous professional develop...ment. You can find your nearest registered NLRP therapist via the Find a Practitioner list on the ALA website. We have gathered together some of the lymphoedema methods you may come across & have compared their course requirements, training regime & qualifications so that you can understand the differences in the training of each. To find out more visit our website via the following link: https://www.mandurahoedema.com.au/qualifications.htm

18.01.2022 Now available from MOC, StrataXRT for the treatment of radiation dermatitis. StrataXRT is a self-drying, non-sticky, transparent, wound dressing in the form of a gel that lightly bonds to the most superficial damaged skin layer. It was specifically developed for the prevention and treatment of radiation dermatitis. StrataXRT dries to form a thin, flexible wound dressing which hydrates and protects affected skin areas. It has no measurable pH value which is why it does not aff...ect the fragile acid mantle of the skin. The gel helps to promote a moist wound healing environment for widespread superficial wounds and burns. This moist wound healing environment promotes faster re-epithelialization* and significantly reduces the skin’s acute inflammatory response seen with both dry and wet desquamation from radiation dosing or first and second degree burns. We are an Authorised Stratapharma Reseller, you can find out more about StrataXRT on our website under Creams & Ointments

10.01.2022 Early Testing & Intervention Works! If you've had lymph nodes removed or irradiated as part of your treatment, you have a 1 in 5 chance of getting Lymphoedema as a result. Lymphedema is swelling caused by damage to your body's lymphatic system. Once you have lymphoedema, it stays with you for life and will require ongoing management.... Testing and early intervention is vital! Mandurah Oedema Clinic have one of only five SOZO Bioimpedence spectroscopy (BIS) devices in Western Australia and the only one in Mandurah. This none invasive test is able to deliver a precise snapshot of fluid status and tissue composition in less than 30 seconds helping your clinical team determine your risk of getting lymphoedema. Join us for coffee at Dot's Place & find out: * What is your risk of getting lymphoedema after treatment * How a simple test can indicate oedema before it shows * Why early intervention can prevent a lifetime of discomfort * When - Thursday 27th February 2020 at 9:30am * Where - Dot's Place, 34, Victoria Circle, Greenfields.

For garment fitting, all you will need is a tape measure and someone to assist you then we can go through the measurement process together on screen. We will then either deliver your garment to your door or arrange postage delivery from our stock. We will also be very happy to provide self care advice to help everyone to manage their conditions and will be posting a number of self care fact sheets on the library page along with links to other sources of advice. Most lymphoedema sufferers are in the vulnerable category for the corona virus and we want you to know that you are not being left out in the cold, we are here to help and available to you at the end of the phone or screen until our clinic opens again.
