Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
Your certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapist will use gentle and precise strokes to encourage proper functioning within the lymphatic system. When performed properly, it can help maintain a healthy lymphatic system or aide in recovery time after strenuous physical activity, illness and post surgery.
Improper utilization of this technique can create serious complications for even a healthy client. In instances of acute post surgical edema or lymphedema, it can have catastrophic results if not done correctly. This is why we only allow therapists who have been certified in this technique to perform it.
If you have been diagnosed with lymphedema, this technique is a vital part of Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT).
Facial manual lymphatic drainage is a cosmetic and functional procedure which works to combat a variety of different concerns. By stimulating the lymphatic system in the face, this allows puffiness and natural swelling to reduce in the face. Additionally, the improvement in lymphatic circulation allows the skin to achieve a more glowing and radiant complexion. As well as the aesthetic benefits, facial lymphatic drainage massage also works to effectively relieve tension in the face and surrounding area as well as alleviate any congestion in the sinuses.
