Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Gentle treatment to reduce fluid build up and swelling

About

Lymph is the watery fluid that moves through your lymphatic system, carrying nutrients and proteins to all cells in your body, and collecting fluid from your tissues and returning them to your blood. Your lymphatic system helps to support your overall health and immune system.

Lymph needs to keep moving but some conditions can make this difficult, such as lymphoedema and cancerous tumours.

Many health conditions and surgeries can cause a build up of fluids (typically in the limbs and also the face and abdomen) causing swelling, puffiness and bloating (lymphoedema and oedema). Manual Lymphatic Drainage can effectively treat this.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a gentle, flowing rhythmic treatment. It has powerful cleansing , relaxing, pain relieving and immunological effects and can be tolerated by those who may find stronger massage and body work uncomfortable.
