My Portfolio - Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Supporting the Body's Natural Flow

What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?
* MLD is very specific massage technique (timing, pressure and direction) which helps to ensure our body's ability to rejuvenate and establish resistance to stress, it encourages the natural circulation of lymph through the body.
* It is not a muscular massage but harmonious manual treatment using mild mechanical stretching of the connective tissue to facilitate decongestion of lymph ducts.
* MLD allows regenerative fluid to flow and improves circulation and toxin removal as well as carrying vital substances to areas where it is needed, thus hasting healing times.

I provide gentle Manual Lymphatic Drainage to support the body's natural lymphatic system.
Each sessions is tailored to the individual, focusing on comfort, safety and relaxation.

My experience includes supporting clients with:
* Fluid retention and heaviness
* Lymphoedema
* Lipoedema
* Post injury or post procedure swelling
* General lymphatic congestion
* Breast cancer related lymphatic support
* Post sporting
* Pain and anti-inflammatory
* Digestive system support - constipation and digestive disorder like IBS

I work closely with each client's healthcare team when needed, such as GP's and physiotherapists to ensure coordinated and appropriate care.
My approach is slow, gentle and respectful of the body's healing process. The goal in not only to reduce swelling but also to help clients feel comfortable and supported.
