LDT Certification Programs

1. Lymph Drainage Therapy Technique Certification (LDT-T)

The Lymph Drainage Therapy Techniques Certification Program signifies advanced skills in the application of lymph drainage therapy. This certification involves extensive study, written exams, and hands-on testing. LDT-T is not a lymphedema certification program (see CLTC)

The LDT-T was formerly called LTC.

 

The benefits of the LDT Technique certification are many. As an LDT-certified therapist you:

  • Affirm your capabilities and understanding of the techniques

  • Build confidence in the minds of your patients/clients that you are highly skilled in this modality

  • Substantiate your qualifications with potential patients/clients and referring practitioners

  • Play a pivotal role in securing the rights of all qualified therapists to practice LDT

  • Receive a certificate indicating certified status.
