Lymphoedema clinic

Our lymphoedema service is based in the state-of-the-art Woodside Clinic within the grounds of St Catherine’s Park.

The award-winning team treats cancer and non-cancer related lymphoedema – a condition which affects our lymphatic system, the process by which we filter and drain waste fluid from our bodies.

The team at St Catherine’s offers treatments to ease discomfort, improve quality of life and boost independence by helping you to understand and cope with your treatment, and advising you how to self-manage your oedema with techniques such as exercises and massage.

Treatments include traditional methods such as drainage and bandaging, as well as using the latest equipment, such as laser therapy and compression pumps.
