I use Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) and specific essential oils applied on acupuncture points at end of session. An optional infrared mini treatment is also available to begin the session. Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a slow, rhythmical light touch treatment that is painless and is only on the
surface of skin to move lymph.


How does Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) affect the body?

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) or Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) is a gentle, relaxing form of massage that helps the body's lymphatic system get moving again while reinforcing immune function. If your system gets overtaxed because of ill health, surgery, stress, poor diet, or lack of exercise, it can get sluggish and not do its job as efficiently. Lymph plays a major role in the body's immune process, so it makes sense that by waking up the lymphatic system you dramatically improve your chances for staying healthy. The lymphatic system is a vital component of the
body's immune function. How MLD can boost your Body’s Health:
 

• MLD is great for relaxing the nervous system via parasympathetic system as it is bolstered with MLD and sympathetic is diminished.
• MLD can help increase Circulation of lymph, blood capillaries, veins, interstitial liquids and cerebrospinal and synovial fluids (in-directly) is activated. This action helps to reroute stagnant fluid in the skin (i.e., edema, primary and secondary lymphedema), mucosa, muscles, viscera, joints, cranial sutures, periosteum, chambers of the eyes and cochlea”1
• Toxins are removed, making lymphatic drainage (MLD) especially effective in tissue regeneration. Scars, stretch marks, wrinkles and fracture, or surgical- incision sites, are improved. Many MLD therapists also use this as part of detoxification and anti-aging regimens.
• Immune system is stimulated through increased lymph flow, helping to give the body a boost.
