Manual
Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a treatment in which
the practitioner uses a range of specialised movements and gentle
rhythmic pumping techniques on the skin to improve the flow of the
lymphatic system. The treatment stimulates the contractions of the
lymph vessels and promotes the up take of fluid from the tissues
into the lymphatic system. The fluid is then carried to lymph nodes
where it is filtered and cleansed of dead cells, bacteria and other
waste products and then finally returned back into the blood stream
The lymphatic system is intimately connected with
all the body systems and functions. A healthy lymphatic system is
essential for high immunity good circulation and nutrition.
