Lori Volin

For more than 25 years, I have had the privilege of caring for individuals living with lymphedema, cancer-related conditions, and other complex medical needs while contributing to the advancement of the profession through leadership, education, and advocacy. After earning my degree in Occupational Therapy from the College of Saint Mary, I became a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT) in 2001 through the internationally recognized Casley-Smith Australian Method and later earned board certification through the Lymphology Association of North America (LANA). In 2003, I founded Midwest Lymphatic Therapy Services in Omaha, Nebraska, where I provided specialized care for individuals living with lymphedema and other lymphatic disorders. That experience laid the foundation for my continued commitment to advancing lymphatic rehabilitation throughout my career. I served for nine years on the Board of Directors of the Lymphology Association of North America (LANA), contributing to professional education and the advancement of lymphatic therapy. Today, through Lymphatic Rehab, LLC, I provide specialized occupational therapy and manual lymphatic drainage services focused on hospice and palliative care. It is a privilege to help patients experience greater comfort, dignity, and quality of life while supporting the families who care for them.
