Modern MLD Certification

Course overview

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) therapy is rapidly evolving. This course provides extensive training for licensed clinicians who wish to become lymphedema certified for the first time, but also enables Certified Lymphedema Therapists (CLTs) to refresh their skills and stay current with new hand techniques and technologies that are shaping lymphedema treatment today. Our Modern MLD Certification was developed by licensed PTs and OTs who are LANA Certified Lymphedema Therapists with a broad background in traditional approaches, such as Vodder, Foldi, Leduc, and Casley-Smith. ILWTI has progressed these traditional paradigms, integrating evidence-based research and future diagnostic ICG fluoroscopy of live lymphatics, to create the new Lymphatic & Integumentary Rehabilitation (LIR [TM]) approach. Our Modern MLD is simple and adaptable to any type of edema and utilizes new, published lymphosomal pathways.
