Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialized,
gentle massage technique designed to stimulate the lymphatic system
and promote the flow of lymph fluid throughout the body.
By using light, rhythmic strokes, MLD helps to reduce fluid retention,
eliminate toxins, and support the immune system.
This non-invasive therapy is particularly beneficial for enhancing the
body's natural detoxification process and alleviating swelling or inflammation.

MLD uses very light, rhythmic strokes that are gentle and soothing. Most clients describe the sensation as deeply relaxing and rejuvenating.
The frequency depends on your individual needs. For chronic swelling or post-surgical recovery, weekly or biweekly sessions may be recommended. For general maintenance, once a month can be beneficial.
While MLD does not directly cause weight loss, it can help reduce water retention and detoxify the body, which may contribute to an overall sense of lightness and well-being.
MLD is generally safe; however, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any severe health conditions, infections, or active cancer. Your therapist will adapt the session to meet your needs safely.
By stimulating lymph flow, MLD helps to clear toxins and waste from the body, which supports immune function and enhances the body’s natural healing processes.
