Course Description

This Level 7 Diploma in Equine Lymphatic Drainage & Kinesiology Taping is an advanced qualification tailored for certified equine bodywork professionals. With over 250 hours of blended learning, this course develops clinical expertise in manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) and the targeted use of kinesiology taping for lymphatic support.

Participants will explore the structure and function of the equine lymphatic system, identify dysfunction, and confidently apply MLD and KTaping across a range of therapeutic contexts—from acute injury management to long-term postural care.

Delivered through online modules, live tutor support, and in-person practical intensives, the course emphasises evidence-informed practice, clinical reasoning, and ethical collaboration with veterinary teams. Learners will complete case studies, hands-on assessments, and viva presentations to demonstrate their ability to plan and deliver effective, welfare-led lymphatic care.

Whether supporting high-performance athletes, managing post-surgical cases, or enhancing wellness in everyday horses, this qualification empowers you to make a lasting impact on equine health and resilience.

This course is designed for qualified equine massage therapists, bodyworkers, and physical therapy professionals who wish to deepen their clinical skill set and expand their therapeutic toolbox.

 

It’s ideal for practitioners working with:
– Rehabilitation and post-operative cases
– Sport and performance horses requiring lymphatic support
– Horses with chronic swelling, oedema, or compromised immune function
– Clients seeking a more holistic, welfare-led approach to equine care

 

This Level 7 diploma is also suitable for those committed to integrating evidence-based, advanced techniques into their existing practice while working in collaboration with veterinary professionals.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

 

– Understand the structure, function, and clinical relevance of the equine lymphatic system
– Identify signs of lymphatic dysfunction and distinguish appropriate therapeutic interventions
– Apply manual lymphatic drainage techniques with precision, safety, and effectiveness
– Use kinesiology taping methods to support lymphatic flow, reduce oedema, and aid recovery
– Integrate lymphatic therapy with other modalities in comprehensive treatment plans
– Communicate clearly with clients, vets, and professionals regarding lymphatic health and contraindications
– Maintain accurate records and uphold ethical and legal standards in professional equine practice

The course involves 250+ hours of guided learning, practical training, and independent study.

Most participants complete the programme within 12 months, depending on their existing workload and pace of study. The flexible blended format allows you to progress through online modules at your own speed, while scheduled practical sessions ensure hands-on skill development is fully supported.

This structure is designed to fit around professional and personal commitments without compromising the depth or quality of your learning experience.

As awareness of lymphatic health and postural wellness grows within the equine industry, so does the demand for skilled professionals trained in advanced therapeutic techniques.

 

Graduates of this programme are equipped to:
– Expand their service offerings to include specialist lymphatic drainage and KTaping
– Attract new clients seeking rehabilitation, post-operative, or performance support
– Collaborate more confidently within multidisciplinary teams, including vets and rehab centres
– Position themselves as leaders in evidence-based, welfare-driven equine therapy

 

Whether you aim to specialise further or enhance your current practice, this qualification strengthens your credibility, clinical scope, and long-term career progression in equine bodywork.
