Overview
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialized massage technique that is designed to stimulate the lymphatic system, helping to efficiently remove waste products and excess fluid from the body’s tissues. This gentle, rhythmic massage technique focuses on specific lymph nodes and points of the lymphatic system, using light pressure and rhythmic circular movements to promote the natural drainage of lymph.
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in the body’s immune system and helps in the removal of toxins. MLD is particularly effective in reducing swelling, relieving congestion, and improving the overall functioning of the immune system. This makes it a beneficial treatment for a variety of conditions, including lymphedema (often seen after surgery or cancer treatments), fibromyalgia, swelling or edema, skin disorders, fatigue, and more.
