Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
Now Available at Atherapy Chiswick
We are excited to introduce Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) at Atherapy Chiswick, provided by our expert physio specialist in drainage. This gentle and highly effective therapy is designed to stimulate the lymphatic system, promoting detoxification, reducing swelling, and enhancing overall well-being.
What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a specialized massage technique that uses light, rhythmic movements to encourage the natural drainage of lymph. This process helps remove excess fluids, waste, and toxins from the body, supporting the immune system and improving circulation. MLD is particularly beneficial for individuals recovering from surgery, those suffering from lymphedema, pregnant individuals, or anyone looking to enhance their overall health.
How Does a Session Work?
Each is carefully structured to maximize the benefits of MLD. The therapist begins with gentle, wave-like strokes in specific areas to stimulate lymph flow, gradually working on targeted regions where fluid buildup is most prominent. The technique is non-invasive, relaxing, and tailored to the client’s needs, ensuring effective results with minimal discomfort. Sessions focus on areas such as the legs, arms, face, and abdomen, depending on the individual’s condition and goals.
Benefits of MLD:
✔️ Reduces fluid retention and swelling
✔️ Speeds up post-surgical recovery
✔️ Enhances detoxification and circulation
✔️ Helps manage lymphedema and chronic conditions
✔️ Supports a healthier pregnancy by reducing swelling and discomfort
✔️ Promotes relaxation and stress relief
MLD for Pregnant Women
Pregnancy often leads to swollen legs, arms, and hands, a condition known as peripheral oedema. MLD helps to reduce this swelling by stimulating circulation and supporting the body’s detoxification processes. The treatment focuses on areas such as the legs, arms, lower back, and face, using gentle pressure to encourage fluid movement. Significant improvement can be seen after just one session, and treatments can be scheduled up to three times a week based on individual needs.
What to Expect During Treatment
