Manual Lymph Drainage has existed since 1938, when Dr Emil Vodder developed this unique form of massage to help his clients recover from persistent colds and infections.
Despite the obvious benefits of integrating Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) into regular massage treatments, over the years MLD has become synonymous with treating chronic conditions like Lymphoedema, Lipoedema and Chronic Swelling.
However, by incorporating treating the lymphatic system into your practice you are more than just adding a new service - you are transforming how you support your clients and enhancing your career as a bodywork professional.
Are you ready to elevate your practice?
Manual Lymphatic Therapy™️is Petra's unique blend of techniques developed over more than twenty years of providing lymphatic treatments to people with an array of health issues, from general health and well-being issues to more chronic and complex conditions such as lymphoedema and lipoedema. Her overriding passion is to help people recover better and more comfortably after aesthetic and cosmetic plastic surgery.
Imagine having...
- Increased Professional Confidence when you feel equipped and assured in your abilities, allowing you to deliver effective holistic care for your clients and to overcome any uncertainties or doubts in your practice.
- Expanded Client Base and Business Growth after enhancing your skills and specialised knowledge, you can offer a broader range of services, attracting more clients and boosting your reputation as the go-to expert, leading to greater business success and stability.
- Renewed Passion and Positivity you will experience a revitalised sense of purpose and optimism about your career, knowing you have the tools and knowledge to make a meaningful impact and achieve long-term professional fulfillment.
Are you ready to level up and increase your business?
After five days gaining additional knowledge and specialist skills to transform your Massage Therapy practice, you will...

Hi! I'm Petra
When I started working with the body having done my Sports Massage training back in 2003, I knew there was something missing. I wasn't sure what it was but I knew I didn't want to be 'just' a massage therapist.
After discovering the wonders of Myofascial Release therapy I began working with women who had had radical mastectomies and were suffering pain and discomfort.
I had heard about Lymph Drainage but had no idea what it was. I did know I wanted to help women recover better after surgery and somehow improve their quality of life.
After much research I discovered a therapist in Michigan, USA, who integrated specialist techniques to help reduce swelling and problematic scar tissue to dramatically improve people's lives.
So, in 2006 I travelled to Ann Arbor in Michigan to learn Lymph Drainage Therapy and Postoperative and Post-Trauma Scar Therapy.
After a successful 20 year career as a Lymphoedema and Scar Tissue Therapist helping thousands of people recover after injury and surgery, let me guide you through YOUR journey to SUCCESS and bypass the 20 years I spent getting to where I am now.
Come and join me in Wood MediSpa in Devon, UK from the 16th to the 20th of June 2025, where I will share with you the specialist techniques I've developed to help you grow your massage therapy business and be known as the go-to 'holisitc' therapist in your area.

Absolutely do it! Petra's knowledge and experience are invaluable and will aid you in becoming a much better practitioner for yourself, your clients and your business.

It was what I was missing. This training covers a very wide range of subjects, and I have learned a lot. Everything seems to fall in place for me, and all that I am doing makes sense. I am credible.
