What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual lymphatic drainage is not your traditional massage. It is a gentle and rhythmic form of hands on therapy that targets the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in our body's immune system, waste removal, and fluid balance. However, it can sometimes become sluggish, leading to a buildup of toxins, swelling, and compromised immunity. After surgery, the lymphatic system moves needed cells to the incision site to help healing, which can also lead to excessive swelling as the healing occurs. 


Manual lymphatic drainage aims to stimulate the flow of lymphatic fluid, aiding in the removal of waste and toxins, reducing inflammation, and boosting the immune system.
