— Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) —
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) has a powerful cleansing, relaxing, pain relieving & immunological effects. In its manual form, it is a gentle, flowing, rhythmic massage and can be applied to a wide range of pathologies to great effect.
MLD is used primarily to promote optimal functioning of the lymphatic vessels that lead to the circulatory system. The techniques facilitate in the removal of metabolic waste, excess water, toxins, bacteria, large protein molecules & foreign substance from tissues.
MLD relaxes the sympathetic nervous system, reduces pain and enhances the activity of the immune system. It is effective in the wide variety of problems including –
- Oedema
- Skin Disorders
- Headaches
- Skin Congestion
- Sprains & Aches
- Stress
- Digestive Disorders
- Pre & Post Surgery (to remove tissue congestion and reduce scar formation)
It is particularly useful as part of post mastectomy therapy – to reduce Oedema & Fibrosis & relieve pain and tension.
- improve energy levels through water retention, toxin removal & aid in detoxification.
- Build Immunity
MLD is an extremely relaxing treatment due to the gentle & relaxing rhythmic movements and can be used as a general wellbeing treatment.
Due to the powerful nature of the treatment, those who haven’t experienced MLD before will start off with shorter treatment times and these gradually increase. To treat a pathological condition it is advised to have a course of sessions relatively close together and we would recommend booking a lymphedema therapy session. This is where a treatment plan is devised and treatment plan put in place to treat a condition which effects your lymphatic system.
