Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Manual lymphatic drainage massage helps to relieve inflammation related to lymphedema. Lymphedema is characterised by swelling in the legs, arms and other parts of the body, and it is a common side effect of many health conditions.

The lymphatic system plays a huge role in delivering nutrients to the tissues, and removing waste products. when the lymphatic system has been disrupted, lymph can build up in the arms, legs, ankles and other parts of the body, encouraging these areas to swell. the lymphatic drainage techniques will help to move lymph from the tissues to the lymph nodes, (these nodes help to filter out toxins). this results in a reduction in swelling.
