A Rehabilitation Massage Therapist (LMT) and Manual Lymphatic Drainage/De-congestive Therapist (MLD/CDT) work as part of a medical team in the treatment of medical disorders and injuries. The physician, physical therapist, occupational therapist, or chiropractor coordinates a treatment plan that utilizes the skills of the therapist. These medical providers can prescribe therapy and insurance can be billed for the services rendered. Working with the medical providers, the therapist is an essential part of the treatment team. Rehabilitation massage therapists can also provide these services as employees of a hospital, physician’s office, rehabilitation clinic, and so on. The graduate also receives a certificate in Manual Lymphatic Drainage/ Complete De-Congestive Therapy (MLD/CDT) through Carnegie Career College.
