Jan has extensive experience in lymphatics, lymphoedema/lipoedema management, post-surgery swell- ing and adhesions due to scar tissue and is highly regarded in her field as an accredited lymphoedema practitioner and educator

Implementing the ‘early intervention management program’ indicated by the Australasian Lymphology Association (ALA) as best practice for lymphoedema management, Jan and her team utilise the latest technology for measurement and monitoring of fluid changes in the body. This allows for the early inter- vention strategies to be put into place.

Jan’s ability to assist you in the best fitting garments for your individual needs is also vital for your comfort and the management of lymphoedema.

Testimonials

I was so thankful that Jan was able to provide treatment for me only 5 days post surgery. The initial treatment session immediately reduced my pain, improved movement and reduced swelling. The second treatment I remember as being an immediate turning point where it was so significant that “I could breathe”. It felt like my chest had been released and I could breathe and move without the huge pressure that I was feeling across my chest. It was amazing, “life changing”.

Jan, you’ve been a superstar for me, from nearly 3 years ago. I can self-manage most of the time (that little paint roller is amazing) and treat myself to a lymph treatment once a month. Plus the lessons you gave Bruce to assist with my massage have been invaluable.
Sandra Waelend

Great professional service. I have recommended people to visit and try for themselves as it was/is helpful to me.
