Introduction to Managing Lymphoedema
Managing Lymphoedema
Thursday 26th January 2012, held at Butterwick Hospice, Stockton.
It is estimated that there are as many as 200,000 people with lymphoedema in the UK.
The condition occurs when there is a failure in the lymphatic system causing swelling and discomfort in the affected area. In the UK one of the commonest causes of the condition is cancer and its treatments.
Although lymphoedema cannot be cured there is much that can be done to control the condition and relieve the symptoms. Support for patients and advice regarding skin care is paramount and Complementary Therapists may be ideally located to provide this support.

The NADA Protocol for Hot Sweats in Cancer Patients
This seminar will provide delegates with the knowledge and skills required to offer an effective treatment for patients experiencing hot sweats and menopausal symptoms; a common side effect of hormone therapy used in the management of both breast and prostate cancers.
This therapy has been found to be safe, cost efficient, and effective in the reduction of frequency and intensity of symptoms in both men and women, and can be offered on an individual basis or within a group setting.
The seminar comprises both theoretical and practical content.
The course is suitable for physiotherapists, nurses and Allied Health Professionals who have completed a foundation course in acupuncture, and are insured to practice acupuncture. All members of the British Acupuncture Council are also welcome.
