Contraindications Lymphatic drainage
The subject"Contraindications" provides a detailed introduction to the conditional and absolute exclusion criteria for the use of manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) and how to deal with these in practice. It begins with the relative contraindications, where MLD should only be performed under certain precautions. Here, the conditional exclusion criteria are discussed and participants learn how they can adapt the therapy to minimize possible risks.
The course continues with the absolute contraindications, where the use of MLD is completely ruled out. The absolute exclusion criteria are explained and alternatives to MLD for contraindications are presented in order to show participants alternative therapies that can be used in such cases.
Another important aspect is how to deal with contraindications in practice. Participants will learn how to deal with contraindications in practice and how to communicate with patients about them. Strategies for risk management and ensuring safety for both patients and therapists are taught.
