ABOUT ABIGAIL

Specialist lymphatic care, with wellbeing at its heart.My approach has always been about understanding the person in front of me — not simply delivering a set treatment.I began my career as a Level 4 Soft Tissue Therapist, training to assess, treat and provide appropriate aftercare. That foundation still shapes the way I work today: looking at the body as a whole, understanding what may be contributing to how someone feels, and adapting treatment accordingly.

​

WHY LYMPHATICS?

My passion for the lymphatic system began through personal experience.After initially being misdiagnosed with lymphoedema, I was later diagnosed with lipoedema. Throughout my adult life I have experienced many different forms of lymphatic treatment myself, which gave me a very personal understanding of just how differently our bodies can respond.It also showed me how powerful the right lymphatic treatment can be.That experience led me to undertake extensive specialist training, including Fluoroscopy Guided Manual Lymphatic Drainage (FG-MLD) and Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage — two very different approaches that continue to influence the way I treat today.

 

SPECIALIST CARE WHEN IT’S NEEDED

My training has continued to develop alongside my practice.I am trained in Decongestive Lymphatic Therapy (DLT), allowing me to support clients with more complex lymphatic needs, including lymphoedema, persistent oedema and genital oedema.My training also includes compression therapy and the assessment and fitting of medical compression garments, alongside oncology, scar therapy and soft tissue therapy.Within the clinic I also have access to a Delfin LymphScanner, which measures localised tissue water. Where appropriate, this gives me objective information to support my assessment and monitor changes over time.Together, these skills allow me to offer far more than hands-on lymphatic drainage alone. Treatment may incorporate MLD, compression, scar and fibrosis work, movement, self-management and practical advice to help clients continue supporting their bodies between appointments.

​

AND SOMETIMES, IT’S SIMPLY ABOUT FEELING BETTER.

Wellbeing is a huge part of my clinic — and something I feel very strongly about.You don’t need to have lymphoedema, be recovering from surgery or have a medical condition to benefit from lymphatic treatment.Many of my clients come regularly because they love how treatment makes them feel. They may feel less heavy or puffy, more comfortable in their body, deeply relaxed, or simply feel that regular treatment is an important part of looking after themselves.My wellbeing treatments can incorporate a more dynamic, Brazilian-inspired approach to lymphatic drainage, while still drawing upon my knowledge of the lymphatic system, soft tissue and the body as a whole.For me, wellbeing and specialist care don’t need to be separate worlds.The depth of my training informs every treatment I give — whether I’m supporting someone with complex lymphoedema or someone who simply wants to leave the clinic feeling lighter, relaxed and at their best.

 

TREATMENT WITH PURPOSE.

I want my clients to enjoy their treatments. I want you to switch off, relax and look forward to coming.But I also want there to be purpose behind what I do.That’s why I continue to invest heavily in my education and specialist training, constantly developing the toolkit I can draw upon for each individual client.Ultimately,
