Lymphatic Drainage in Canmore
Canmore’s only medically registered lymphatic therapist. Dr. Vodder certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) for post-surgical recovery, lymphedema management, immune support, and fluid retention. 27 years of specialist experience.
The gold standard in lymphatic therapy — Dr. Vodder certified
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a highly specialised, gentle massage technique developed by Dr. Emil Vodder in the 1930s. It uses precise, rhythmic hand movements to stimulate the lymphatic system, encouraging lymph fluid to flow away from congested areas toward functioning lymph nodes where it can be processed and filtered.
Lisa holds the CLT (Registered Lymphatic Therapist) designation under the Alberta Lymphatic Association, and trained directly in the Dr. Vodder method — the global benchmark for lymphatic therapy. She is the only medically registered RMT in Canmore offering this level of certified lymphatic care, making her the go-to therapist for post-surgical clients, lymphedema management, and anyone seeking medically grounded lymphatic treatment.
Who benefits from lymphatic drainage
MLD has broad clinical applications — from post-operative swelling to chronic immune challenges and everyday fluid retention.
Essential after orthopaedic, plastic, or dental surgery to reduce oedema, accelerate healing, and minimise bruising and scar tissue formation.
Primary and secondary lymphedema management — a chronic condition causing persistent swelling due to a compromised lymphatic system, often after cancer treatment.
Regular MLD sessions support immune function by clearing metabolic waste, reducing inflammation, and optimising lymph node activity throughout the body.
Effective for general fluid retention, pregnancy-related swelling, travel oedema, and chronic puffiness that doesn’t respond to conventional massage.
Improves tissue regeneration after injury or surgery, reduces the appearance of fibrotic scar tissue, and promotes healthy circulation to the skin.
Year Lisa completed her Dr. Vodder Method training in Victoria, BC — the foundation of Canmore’s most credentialed MLD clinic.
The internationally recognised gold standard in lymphatic therapy credentials.
Most MLD sessions run 60 or 90 minutes depending on the area and complexity.
The only medically registered RMT in Canmore with CLT certification.
