Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) Massage is a gentle, specialised therapy that uses slow, rhythmic and precise hand movements to encourage the natural, optimal functioning of the lymphatic vessels that lead to the circulatory system.
The lymphatic system plays an important role in maintaining fluid balance, supporting immune function and removing waste products from the tissues.
MLD techniques facilitate the removal of metabolic wastes, excess water, toxins, bacteria, large protein molecules and foreign substances from tissue via the initial lymph vessels and the venous capillaries.
Unlike traditional massage, MLD uses very light pressure to stimulate the lymphatic vessels, which lie just beneath the surface of the skin. The treatment is deeply relaxing and is tailored to your individual needs.
As it is extremely gentle and feels wonderful and relaxing, it is not unusual for patients to either fall asleep or go into a highly relaxed state, due to the slow and gentle rhythmic motions involved.
MLD Massage may be effective in the treatment of a wide variety of problems including oedema, skin disorders, headache, sinus congestion, sprains and aches, stress, digestive disorders and before and after surgery to remove tissue congestion and minimize scar formation.

It relaxes the symphatic nervous system and may help to:
Whether you're looking to support recovery, reduce swelling or enjoy the calming benefits of this gentle therapy, MLD offers a safe and relaxing approach to supporting your overall wellbeing.
Each treatment is tailored to your individual needs following a thorough consultation to ensure it is safe and suitable for you.
Your safety is my priority. A full consultation will be carried out before treatment to ensure Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is appropriate for you.
