MLD / Lymphatic Drainage

Lymphatic drainage is a therapeutic massage treatment. The massage uses very light pressure and long, gentle, rhythmic strokes to increase the flow of lymph and reduce toxins in your body.

The lymph system is part of your body’s immune system and helps fight infection. It transports nutrients and oxygen to cells, collecting toxins on the way and flushing them out through the lymph nodes. You have around twice as many lymph vessels as blood vessels in your body. However, unlike blood, which is pumped around by your heart, the lymph system has no pump. The pressure from your blood vessels and movement from your muscles push the lymphatic fluid around.

Lymphatic drainage can:

• Reduce the chance of you suffering from minor colds and viruses; it helps your body fight off infection, and speeds up healing and recovery from illness and or operations.
• Help reduce water retention; for instance, because the lymph system has no pump, if you sit for a long time without moving, the lymph can’t flow easily — this is why you may experience swollen feet or fingers
• Boost weight loss, as improving the lymphatic system will improve your metabolic rate, which helps you burn calories more efficiently.

Lymphatic drainage massage can also improve your skin texture by:

• Reducing swelling, puffiness and blotches
• Giving you clean, healthy pores
• Speeding up healing in scar tissue, so it may, for example, improve the appearance of stretch marks
• Helping to reduce cellulite; the treatment increases blood flow and circulation to the affected areas, which helps the body break down the toxins which cause dimply skin
