Comprehensive training done by expert and helpful instructors!
Being in the classroom situation really put it all together for me. The hands-on instructions for techniques and pressure really are invaluable.

This course was taught by caring professionals. Norton School has provided me with a thorough education from which I can move forward to assist people with lymphedema. I am very glad I chose Norton School because they made sure we are well equipped by the time we finish the course. Very well rounded program!

The training and support I received in Complete Decongestive Therapy from Norton School was outstanding. The program was intensive, but very well organized; and the books, resources, and knowledge and experience shared by the instructors are invaluable. I left prepared to confidently treat clients with lymphedema-related conditions.

I feel the Norton School Lymphedema Certification course is the best course I have ever been to. The pre-course work was very informative and built a good background to build upon when learning to apply that knowledge in the classroom. I learned so much more than I ever thought that I would. The teachers were amazing and different so we were able to learn different ways of doing things. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is interested in helping people with lymphedema. I came back to work with the confidence that I could truly help my patients and provide them with the optimal care they needed.

Glad there was a home study portion prior to the 9 day class. Learning the theory on my own at my own pace was beneficial. Completing the home study is overwhelming, but very beneficial. It prepares you very well for the techniques and lab portion once reach the class. Seeing actual patients was very beneficial. Having different reps come in gave different ideas for compression garments and where we can get them from. The class overall was very beneficial and lead to confidence to go back to clinic and treat patients with lymphedema.

Very thorough and informative. Our instructor actually works in this field which I felt added more credit. Some instructors just teach and lose touch with what is going on currently. Long days with much material covered. We'll worth the investment.

Brad Smith is an excellent, thoughtful teacher. He helps problem solve difficult cases and provided clear handouts and photos. I highly recommend his classes!
