Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) is an innovative hands-on method of lymphatic drainage developed by Bruno Chikly, MD, DO. It was created out of his award-winning research on the lymphatic system consistent with recent scientific discoveries. LDT1 takes traditional lymph drainage techniques and adds a level of precision.
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.
This course will cover the pelvic diaphragm, respiratory diaphragm, intracranial diaphragms (falx cerebri, falx cerebelli, tentorium cerebelli)
Releasing our 3 diaphragms is a very important key to healing the physical-emotional components of disease.
This is an exciting advanced class for trained cranial osteopaths and craniosacral therapists that will greatly enhance the techniques you are already applying.
It introduces a deep work that engages the cranial rhythm / Cranial Rhythmic Impulse (CRI), the bone marrow, and its profound relationship with the bones, joints, and the central nervous system.
In this class we will:
• Introduce bone marrow: motility, mobility.
It can be a challenging endeavor to work on every fiber of the intracranial meninges and synchronize with each specific direction in 3-D.
This class uses 25 labs to help you palpate and release numerous meninges of the cranium and spinal cord.
Precision working on the cranial meninges is extremely important. The change of tension inside the cranium modifies the tension in the thorax, pelvis, and abdomen and ultimately influences the whole-body system.
This class will address retained and reoccurring neonatal and general reflexes in children and adults.
Here's what you can look forward to:
Develop and improve your anatomical skills, and thus your diagnostic and treatment skills, by seeing the brain and spinal cord structures in three dimensions and applying neuroanatomy to bodywork techniques.
Observe and participate in actual cranial and spinal dissections.
Directly observe all ventricles, the spinal cord, spinal nerve/root, denticulate ligament, filum terminale, cranial nerves, meninges, and most accessible nuclei and associated fibers of the brain.
In this class, we will cover numerous approaches and techniques for the eyes, the intracranial Meninges, as well as techniques for CSF in three different compartments of the cranium including the glymphatic pathways and the cisterns.
1- First of all, we will help balance the whole CNS then specifically the optic pathways.

These therapies can be used to treat both children and adults suffering from physical injuries, neurological disorders, cognitive disabilities, lymphatic disorders, athletes with sport injuries, recovering war veterans, and elders with age-related conditions that inhibit their quality of life.
