Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Gentle, slow and rhythmic strokes stimulate the lymphatic system to increase the effectiveness of the immune system.

The techniques applied can reduce blockages and restrictions in the lymphatic system, enhancing lymph collection and transport to your lymph nodes where pathogenic substances can be inactivated, increasing the body's resistance to disease.

Lymphatic drainage can help reduce oedema — an excessive build-up of fluid in the tissues from an overloaded lymphatic system, often felt as swelling and tight skin. Oedema can result from inflammation, increased capillary pressure, obstructed venous flow, liver disease, kidney failure, congestive heart failure, tight bandaging or casts, lymphatic dysfunction, or the higher blood volume of pregnancy.
