What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a specialised massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to promote lymph fluid flow. Using gentle pressure and rhythmic movements, MLD encourages the drainage of excess fluid from tissues, reducing swelling and improving lymphatic function. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with lymphedema, post-surgical swelling, and conditions affecting lymphatic health. By clearing affected areas and guiding fluid towards functioning lymph nodes, MLD aids in detoxification, enhances circulation, and supports immune function. Many clients report feeling lighter and more energised after treatment, making it a valuable addition to holistic wellness routines.
