Lindsey Carter, RMT, CDT
registered massage therapist, vodder certified manual lymph drainage practitioner, Matrix repatterning Specialist
Lindsey has more than 25 years experience working as a Registered Massage Therapist. She is also a certified Manual Lymph Drainage and Lymphedema Therapist. She studied and received her certification with the internationally recognized Dr. Vodder school. This training and experience gives Lindsey the skills to work with clients recovering from cancer treatment, surgery, trauma, and many conditions that cause inflammation within the body (more details below).
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a light, rhythmic treatment that stimulates the natural flow of lymph throughout the body. This facilitates the removal of metabolic waste from the tissues while bringing nutrients and oxygen to the cells, creating an environment ideal for healing.
While MLD is well known as a treatment for individuals who have undergone lymph node removal/dissection or radiation, it can be beneficial for many other conditions, including:
* Primary or Secondary lymphedema
* Sprains, strains or fractures
* Post-surgical trauma
* Wounds
* migraines
* Chronic sinusitis
* Traumatic injuries
* Dermatological disorders
In her ongoing effort to help clients find answers to their chronic pain, Lindsey discovered Matrix Repatterning and completed her certification. This is a gentle yet profound therapy, developed by Dr. George Roth, that corrects imbalances within the body at a cellular level. A comprehensive assessment can help determine underlying sources of restriction often due to impact injuries that have accumulated over a lifetime. By precisely locating these areas and applying gentle, hands-on treatment, the layers of tension can start to unravel.
If you are interested in booking an assessment for Matrix Repatterning and follow-up treatment, please call Lindsey at (613)884-9799. You can also learn more about Matrix Repatterning at www.matrixrepatterning.com
