If you’re not fully harnessing your patients’ lymphatic systems…
…you’re missing one of the most powerful tools you have to help them heal after surgery, manage chronic pain and inflammation, and break through treatment plateaus with lymphedema and lipedema.
The lymphatic system is the body’s unsung hero. It’s essential for immune function, tissue healing, and fluid balance — yet it’s often overlooked in traditional rehab approaches. When you learn to activate and optimize it, you can transform the way you treat swelling, accelerate recovery timelines, and improve your patients’ overall outcomes.
That’s why some of the most-followed and most-respected lymphatic health experts have joined forces to create a truly integrative training — bringing together physical therapy, occupational therapy, massage therapy, and holistic perspectives — to help you unlock the full potential of the lymphatic system in your practice.
You might know Kelly Sturm, PT, DPT, OnCS, CLT-LANA; Leah Levitan, LMT, CLT; and Barbara (Babz) Tobin, MSOT, OTR/L, CLT-LANA, CYT, REIKI from social media — but they’re also seasoned clinicians who have walked in your shoes. And they’re joined by additional lymphatic specialists, so you’ll learn from a team that spans disciplines and treatment philosophies. Together, they’ll take you far beyond a cookie-cutter anatomy lecture and give you proven, clinically relevant strategies you can use right away, including:
This training is practical, engaging, and designed to elevate your clinical results — and we’re so confident you’ll love it that we back your registration with a risk-free guarantee.

While there is increasing evidence supporting the role of exercise in managing lymphedema, many professionals are unaware of the latest research on how specific types of exercise (aerobic, resistance, flexibility) can enhance lymphatic drainage. Much of the education done for lymphedema certification for professionals remains outdated. As a result, exercise is an often-overlooked aspect of care.

Join Lisa, who is teamed up with one of the nation's leading surgeons for lipedema treatment. You'll explore surgical interventions and how it impacts swelling. Collaboratively evaluate the most current research on conservative treatment strategies therapists can utilize for both surgical and nonsurgical patients.
