Testimonials

I took Manual Lymphatic Drainage with Madge in 2023. What first struck me as important was her extensive training and knowledge of the modality. Secondly and for me, most profoundly was her patience and teaching style. I found the balance of learning and practicals to be incredibly supportive to bring MLD to my massage practice immediately. It has been about a year now since studying MLD and learning with Madge and I do about three to five MLD sessions each week. Over this last year, I have had a few clients of which I needed more knowledge and support for MLD and Madge has been available via email each time to help me through providing answers and resources. I have also found her refresher course to be beneficial. Learning MLD has been beneficial for growing my business, supporting those who need it and supporting my own body by providing a more gentle technique. I have learned it is gentle and mighty.

I took my original MLD training with another instructor, to later hear great things about Madge and her expertise in the field. I signed up for one of her refresher classes (which is an amazing offering in and of itself!) Her knowledge and expertise was so completely relevant and well taught, so much so that I have considered retaking the 6 day MLD course just to receive the information through her lens as an instructor. Lymphatic Drainage (and understanding that system is SO NEEDED) Madge is an excellent instructor and I highly recommend training with her. Adding this modality to your repertoire is practice altering!
