Wrap & Roll 2006 Newsletter

We are happy to introduce our newest lymphedema therapist, Brie Booth. Brie is a licensed Physical Therapy Assistant who trained at Cuyahoga Community College. Before joining our organization and beginning her training in lymphedema therapy, she worked at a group home with 15 residents, helping them perform activities of daily living as needed. On a personal note, Brie is 23. She’s learning to play the guitar and likes to sing in her church band. She enjoys working with people and is looking forward to meeting you!

We are constantly striving to provide state of the art treatment to those with lymphedema. The Cleveland Lymphedema Clinic staff continues to pursue new and more effective approaches to manage our patients.  

Win Pallante and Erika Wade, Lymphedema Therapists, will be going to Germany this spring!  They will be attending both a one-week advanced course and the International Lymphology Meeting, which will feature presentations by leading European physicians. The advanced course will focus on treatment of the trunk and head and neck edema. The Foeldi Clinic, where the course is offered, has been a pioneer in lymphedema treatment and is a world leader in lymphedema treatment and the training of lymphedema therapists. 

Be sure to attend our June meeting to hear about their trips and classes.

Newsletter will not be published again until 2007, so mark your calendars for this year.
