Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is an advanced massage modality that supports optimal functioning of the lymphatic system.
The lymphatic system is the body’s waste management, fluid drainage, and defense system. It is crucial to maintain a clean interstitial environment for cellular functioning, defends against infections, and maintains balance of the body’s fluids.
Receiving a manual lymphatic drainage massage may enhance lymphatic drainage by up to 20x compared to not receiving this highly specified technique at all.
Expect to experience a light pressure, slow and rhythmic technique that encourages the natural flow of lymphatic fluid.
