co-ordinate a strategy for improving the management of chronic oedema,
particularly lymphoedema. They publish a Directory of Lymphoedema
clinics in the UK, and could advise you whether there is one near you.
Sometimes these clinics will treat lymphoedema using bandaging without
MLD, but some offer MLD and bandaging. Depending on the exact nature of
your condition, the British Lymphology Society could also help you with
further information, including on self-massage if this appropriate for
you. You can contact them at:
