  Samantha DePaulo Hello everyone! I am a PTA and a recent grad and very interested in lymphedema therapy. How is a good way to get started and find a job willing to train and give experience. I live in the NY/NJ area

    Samantha DePaulo Yes I just came across the site and I like it but is it realistic that a place will hire with the intent to train because I do not have a certification in just that?

You may have to just call around to outpatient rehab centers to find out what they have to say. I know where I work they would hire with the intent to train in the near future. The cost of certification is a good chunk of money and some facilities may want you to give them a commitment of a year or two if they pay to have you certified. Definately check out the Norton school web site and good luck!

    Samantha DePaulo I split my time between NY and NJ but I am only currently licensed in NJ. Is the facility that you work located in NJ?
