What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)?

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialised, gentle massage technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid throughout the body. Using light, rhythmic movements, MLD supports the natural drainage of lymph, helping to reduce swelling, enhance immune function, and promote the body’s healing processes.

 

What to Expect During Your Session

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a hands-on treatment. You may be asked to undress down to your underwear to allow proper access to the treatment areas. For modesty and comfort, you are welcome to wear short sports shorts.
Each session is tailored to suit your specific condition and individual treatment goals, ensuring you receive the most effective care possible.

 

What Is MLD Useful For?

MLD is especially beneficial for post-surgical recovery, where it can help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and speed up the healing process.

Whether you’re recovering from surgery, experiencing persistent swelling, or managing a chronic health issue, MLD offers a gentle and effective way to detoxify tissues, alleviate discomfort, and restore balance. Many clients also report a deep sense of relaxation and improved overall well-being following treatment.
