Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD)
Indications for an MLD Treatment
Manual Lymph Drainage (aka Lymphatic Massage) facilitates the healing of injuries, chronic conditions, inflammations and edemas by:
- Cleansing the connective tissue of inflammatory agents and toxins;
- Enhancing the activity of the immune system;
- Stimulating the functioning of the parasympathetic nervous system; and
