Manual Lymphatic Drainage

The lymphatic system is a crucial part of your immune system. Through a network of hundreds of lymph nodes, it drains fluid called lymph to be transported back into your bloodstream. It also removes bodily waste and carries white blood cells that help prevent infection.

​

When there’s any kind of obstruction in your lymphatic system, fluid can start to build up causing symptoms such as:

​

• lymphedema

• fibromyaligia

• swelling or edema 

• skin disorders

• fatigue

• insomnia

• stress

• digestive problems

• arthritis

•  migraine episodes

​

​

Manual Lymphatic Drainage can be helpful to gently stimulate and encourages the lymph to move and be expelled from the body using a sequence of rhythmic pumping action.
