Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle treatment. It is designed to support the lymphatic system, reduce swelling, and encourage the natural removal of excess fluid and toxins. Alongside hands-on manual techniques, I incorporate advanced supportive technologies such as the Deep Oscillation Therapy and negative pressure 6D action machine when appropriate. When combined with advanced technology—like Deep Oscillation® and the negative pressure 6D action machine—treatments can achieve deeper, more consistent stimulation. These machines help:
- Reach deeper layers of tissue that hands alone may not fully access.
- Enhance lymph flow more efficiently, reducing swelling faster.
- Soften tight, fibrotic, or post-surgical tissue gently without extra pressure.
- Provide consistent, controlled movements that complement the therapist’s manual work.
This therapy is beneficial for:
- Post-surgery recovery (once medically cleared)
- Swelling, fluid retention, or lymphatic congestion
- Scar healing and tissue restriction
- Inflammation or chronic pain
- Fatigue, heaviness, or stress-related tension
What to expect during a manual lymphatic drainage session:
- Tailored to your body, comfort, and medical history
- Gentle, slow, rhythmic techniques
- Light pressure (not deep or painful)
- Use of manual techniques and advanced devices when appropriate
Post-treatment advice
- Hydration support
- Gentle movement recommendations
- Rest and aftercare guidance
Safety & suitability note
- Treatment is adapted to individual health needs
- Medical clearance required after surgery
