Lymphatic drainage massage is a manual technique used to stimulate the flow of lymph (a clear fluid that circulates through the body via the lymphatic system, which plays an important role in our immune system). Through the application of soft pressure and long strokes, an MLD practitioner aims to relieve swelling, remove toxins and improve one’s overall health.
The lymphatic system comprises of vessels and nodes with lymph, a mixture of water, proteins, waste products and immune system elements. Situated throughout the body, lymph nodes filter all this debris.
Enquiries for Manual Lymphatic Drainage are predominantly regarding lymphoedema, lipoedema and pre/post plastic surgery however this form of treatment can help various conditions so if you aren’t experiencing one of the above conditions but have been advised to seek this form of therapy, please do still enquire.
MLD is largely provided to help with the aches, pains, and recovery process post cosmetic surgery however it also provides various benefits.
