Online - Post Op Manual Lymphatic Drainage (inc K Taping) Diploma

This course is aimed at Therapists who hold a Manual Lymphatic Drainage qualification and a Diploma in Anatomy & Physiology, who are looking to extend their career in lymphatic drainage and to gain knowledge and skills required to help drain clients post-surgery and learn about different types of surgeries and complications that may arise.

Following many elective, cosmetic-surgery operations, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is advised and is critical in the healing and recovery process. It is an extremely gentle treatment and significantly decreases the presence of bruising, swelling, stiffness, burning or shooting pain, scars, and lumps occurred during or after surgery.

Surgeries that can benefit from MLD include: 

• Liposuction
• Tummy tuck
• Fat removal (360 sculpt)
• Cellulite reduction
• Excess skin removal
• Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
• Body contouring
• Body sculpting
• Breast augmentation
• Breast reconstruction
• Rhinoplasty
• Reconstructive surgeries (e.g. from injuries)
