How Does Manual Lymphatic Drainage Work?

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, therapeutic massage technique designed to stimulate your body’s lymphatic system, promoting detoxification, reducing swelling, and enhancing your overall immune function.

MLD uses light, rhythmic strokes to encourage the flow of lymph fluid throughout the body. This fluid, which contains waste products and toxins, is guided toward the lymph nodes, where it can be filtered and eliminated. By stimulating the lymphatic system, MLD helps reduce swelling, speed up recovery after surgery, and improve the appearance of the skin by reducing puffiness and promoting a healthy glow.
