Testimonials

I have known Mrs. Lynn Clemons for over 30 years. In that time, I have had the privilege of knowing her as a seasoned medical instructor and personally. Mrs. Clemons is a phenomenal instructor. She is engaging and keeps her audiences in mind when speaking. This comes across in the precise way that she delivers her medical lectures. During my relationship with her, I have witnessed an individual who really delivers on whatever is asked, works hard to prepare her lectures and delivers in a clear, dignified and respectful manner. She has the clinical and personal expertise, so you can trust her research and material. Mrs. Clemons is highly intelligent, yet humble, which is sometimes lacking today. That humility contributes to a very approachable teaching style. As a person who works with tons of doctors, faculty, and continuing education instructors, she is among the best that I have heard in my 13 years working for a public university. Mrs. Clemons is exceptionally gifted at making the participants in her lectures feel comfortable all while increasing their knowledge and maintaining a positive atmosphere. Thank you and have a great day!

It is indeed a pleasure to submit this document on behalf of Ms. Lynn Clemons. I was privileged to be a participant in Ms. Clemons’ “Lymphadenopathy and Current Lymphatic Drainage Procedures” Seminars for the past several weeks – and was extremely impressed with Ms. Clemons – both in terms of her high fund of knowledge, and also her high level of technical skill. She is not only a gifted teacher but is also quite passionate about her work and her desire to have those patients with lymphadenopathy or poor lymphatic drainage be helped with the most up-to-date procedures.
Ms. Clemons is extremely competent in treatment through therapeutic massage of post-surgical and post-radiation lymphadenopathy – but she also is remarkably familiar with all of the latest studies – including but not limited to those dealing with glaucoma patients, sufferers from chronic sinusitis, and edema from lymphedema. Quite fascinating material and cutting-edge knowledge on Ms. Clemons’ part.
She is able to relate extremely well to participants at all levels of entry knowledge and is truly remarkable in her ability to enable patients to help themselves.
I cannot recommend Lynn Clemons and her Seminars highly enough! Anyone – from the lay public to those with medical degrees will benefit immensely from her expertise.

Nihiwatu Resort, Sumba Indonesia
I had the pleasure of working with Lynn Phillips-Clemons at Nihiwatu Resort, Indonesia in 2003. Nihiwatu is an exclusive 5-star resort, catering to guests looking for luxury with a difference. In order to improve our spa experience, we reached out to Lynn Clemons and her “Secret Spa Shopper “program. She accepted our invitation and spent three weeks at our island resort consulting with our management to assess our needs and then creating treatment protocols with follow through training of our spa staff. Our entire staff were enthusiastic and inspired to make improvements on their existing training and skills and were very receptive to the new treatments created by Lynn as were our guests!
I was extremely impressed with Lynn’s preparation for her time with us. She even endeavored to learn the Indonesian language! And further, she humbly presented this new training program to our local island chief to gain permission for the local population to enjoy employment here at our spa.
During her time here on Sumba, Lynn who is a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT) also consulted with the Sumba Foundation regarding training a local nurse in the treatment of Elephantiasis, a debilitating disease affecting some in our local population. While here, she was able to interact with a group of emergency room doctors who joined her in her quest to bring lymphedema/elephantiasis treatment to the island. We look forward to her continued efforts in this regard.
I found Lynn extremely professional, approachable and a wonderful instructor and experienced therapist. I whole-heartedly recommend her “Secret Spa-Shopper” on-site training program.

I recently had the privilege of attending a ten-week webinar “Lymph 101” instructed by Mrs. Lynn Clemons. I thoroughly enjoyed the course. I was really impressed with the depth of her knowledge regarding the lymphatic system, anatomy and physiology. As a healthcare professional, I felt the curriculum was craftily presented to both layperson and clinician alike. I highly recommend Mrs. Lynn Clemons as an instructor to both healthcare professionals as well as the general lay public.

To Whom it may concern:
Last month I was the Medical Director at the Camp Mak-A-Dream Women’s Retreat in Gold Creek Montana. Lynn Clemons was one of the featured speakers at the retreat. I was most impressed with the scope of her knowledge regarding lymphedema therapy as well as her enthusiasm, patience and kindness. Lynn promises no miracles but offers hope and benefits to patients who are willing to make the effort.
I believe her presentations are of great value to practitioners as well as patients and I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet her.

I took a continuing education course in Manual Lymphatic Drainage this past weekend and it was more than I could have hoped for. Lynn Clemons is a passionate professional who inspired me and others in the healing profession to never stop learning, to always seek new and better ways to understand the human body and conditions to bridge the gap between disease management and optimal healing. She is one of the best workshop facilitators I have experienced. Her lively and relatable dialogue is amazing. I now have useful material that will improve my practice and ability to better support my clients! I look forward to any future offerings.
