Why work with me...
In 2006 I became the ONLY therapist in the world qualified in Postoperative and Post Trauma Scar Massage, a training developed especially for me by the Centre for Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and the School of Orthopaedic Massage & Bodywork, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. As part of the training I completed Bruno Chikly's Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) 1 & 2, my first introduction to the lymphatic system.
Wanting to learn more about the wonders of lymphatics, in 2008 I completed my Lymphoedema Certification with Klose Training Inc. in the Foeldi Method of MLD/CDT (Manual Lymph Drainage & Complete Decongestive Therapy), and, every two years since then I've attended the Foeldi Clinic in Germany to complete the Advanced Review & Update certification.

"The day before my surgery I had a session of MLD. I felt relaxed and more confident about what I was doing after that session. My first post op MLD was a few days after my surgery and I had a further 6 after that. The MLD was great for reducing the swelling, but it was Petra’s knowledge and advice around this surgery and recovery that was invaluable. After being discharged from hospital I felt a bit nervous going home so seeing Petra twice a week was reassuring.
My recovery was pretty easy. I had good mobility and minimal pain. I do put that down to the MLD. Petra’s advice and knowledge is invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is just great!"
