This continuing education course examines the anatomy, physiology, and therapeutic applications of the lymphatic system, laying a solid foundation for effective treatment planning and safe client care.
Study the structure and function of lymphatic vessels, nodes, and organs as you examine how lymph supports immune function, maintains fluid balance, and facilitates tissue healing.

This course also introduces massage-therapy-specific clinical reasoning to help you assess lymphatic dysfunction within your scope of practice. Learn how to evaluate presenting symptoms, recognize patterns of swelling, and distinguish red flags that require medical referral.
By the end of this course, you’ll be equipped to support clients recovering from surgery, managing immune-related conditions, or experiencing fluid retention, while earning valuable continuing education credits.
