Lymphoedema sufferers, something to help you stay safe

Hello everyone,
I feel this is a really important message to anyone suffering from Lymphoedema out there.
It has been brought up on a forum which I am involved with, that there are a lot of therapists offer manual lymphatic drainage to people with lymphoedema after only attending a 3 or 4-day course, this is very worrying and dangerous.
the course I attended was 4 weeks with the German Földi college and had to sit written and oral test with a Doctor.
Anyone suffering from lymphoedema I would advise you to find a therapist in your area using the MLDuk wedsite as they have to have the correct training to register and ask anyone claiming to treat lymphoedema how long was their course, thank you and be safe. x
