At Moving Lymph, our fees are structured to provide comprehensive postgraduate training in lymphatic therapies for health professionals at an affordable rate. When you compare our course fee to other CPD programs we are sure you will find our per-day rate is less than most other courses. Moving Lymph course fees include any course components hosted on the Moving Lymph website (Online Programs or Groups), but not those which are hosted on external sites such as the Dr Vodder Akademie International. GST, bank fees, Certificate license fees, and DVSI coupon fees are not included in the Course Fee and are paid directly to the Certifying Institution.

A range of lymphatic drainage techniques are taught by different schools. Many of these methods are described using the term MLD, even when they are not teaching the original Dr. Vodder Method of Manual Lymph Drainage. Some approaches, such as the Casley-Smith method, are based on lymphatic effleurage. This involves gentle stroking movements applied along lymph vessels in the direction of lymph flow. The pressure temporarily moves fluid while the stroke is being applied, but once the pressure stops, the movement of lymph generally stops as well—similar to squeezing toothpaste from a tube. Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD), as developed in the Dr. Vodder Method, is different. It uses precise, rhythmic movements that gently manipulate the skin and underlying tissue to stimulate the lymph vessels to increase their natural pumping activity. Rather than simply pushing fluid along, it works with the body’s physiological mechanisms that regulate lymph flow. When applied correctly and for sufficient time, this stimulation can influence lymphatic activity throughout the body—not just in the area being treated—creating a systemic lymphatic response. In addition, research and clinical experience suggest that this stimulation of lymphatic pumping may continue for several days after treatment, providing benefits that extend beyond the session itself. While terms like lymphatic drainage massage or lymphatic massage are often used interchangeably with MLD, Manual Lymph Drainage is more than a massage. It is a targeted and precise technique designed to stimulate and support the function of the lymphatic system.

The Dr Vodder Certificate in MLD & CDT (Levels 1 & 3) meet the post graduate requirements for the ALA Accredited Lymphoedema Practitioner Program (ALPP). Please note that Level 1 alone is not a full Lymphoedema qualification and the ALA requires completion of both Level 1 & Level 3 for the ALPP. Please note the ALA also have other undergraduate, insurance and ongoing education requirements and some therapists who are eligible for entry to Dr Vodder Courses may not be eligible for the ALA ALPP. Please see www.lymphoedema.org.au (http://www.lymphoedema.org.au)for more information. The Certificate in Applied MLD and the Advanced Body Certificate do not qualify for the ALA ALPP.
