Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a specialized therapeutic massage technique specifically designed to support your lymph system and give your immune system a boost. It uses slow, gentle, rhythmic strokes to help the body increase lymphatic circulation and decrease excess fluid and swelling. It calms the inflammatory response and supports your body’s own ability to detoxify. Keeping your lymph system healthy helps your body defend itself against disease and infection, decrease swelling, reduce pain, promote normal range of motion, inhibit scar formation, and reduce overall recovery time.

Conditions that benefit from MLD include:

• hip & knee replacement surgery

• sinus, tension, and migraines headaches
