Lymphedema Therapy

I have been an Occupational Therapist for 12 years, having graduated from Cleveland State Universtiy in 1999.  I have worked in a variety of settings and currently serve the communities of Northeast Ohio.

My specialty is Lymphedema Therapy using the Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) protocol as described by Michael Foldi of Hinterzarten Germany in his Textbook of Lymphology for Physicians and Lymphedema Therapists.  I have trained with therapy greats such as Sandra Artzberger MS OTR, CLT, CHT and Rosemary Schrauth OTR/L, CLT, CKTP, as well as the incomparable Lori Schaetz of Oshkosh, Wisconsin.  I have also studied under the Bruno Chikly curriculum (LDT) and I have taken all three Kinesiotaping courses.

I will be adding more information on this topic as time in my life permits!  Stay tuned...
