MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE IN CHORLEY AT MUSCLE MENDER

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialist massage technique that helps boost your lymphatic system, which is responsible for getting rid of toxins, waste, and excess fluid in the body. It's perfect if you're looking to feel lighter, reduce swelling and support your immune system. 

​

MLD can provide lots of different benefits:

• Reduces swelling: if you've been feeling puffy or dealing with fluid retention after surgery, manual lymphatic drainage is great for reducing swelling.

• Detoxification: by moving the lymphatic fluid, it helps your body flush out waste, leaving you feeling fresher and more energised. 

• Boosting the immune system: MLD encourages lymph flow, which helps your immune system work more effectively. 

• Relaxation: Manual Lymphatic Drainage is extremely relaxing, so it's great if you ned to unwind and de-stress. 

• Clearer skin: Did you know that Manual Lymphatic Drainage can help improve the health of your skin by flushing out toxins? 

​

So with so many benefits, you might be wondering what conditions MLD can help with. Although almost anyone can have a Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage, some conditions benefit more than others - here's just a few conditions that could really benefit from MLD treatment: 

​

• Menopause: If you're going through the menopause, MLD can help reduce bloating and water retention, while also helping you relax and sleep better. 

• Long COVID: If you're struggling with Long COVID symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, or brain fog, Manual Lymphatic Drainage can help reduce inflammation and improve your energy levels. 

• Post Surgical Recovery: MLD is perfect for reducing swelling and helping your body heal after surgery, including cosmetic procedures. 

• Lymphedema: Manual Lymphatic Drainage is commonly used to help relieve the discomfort of swelling due to lymphedema.

• Chronic conditions: For people struggling with issues like fibromyalgia, or chronic fatigue, MLD can help manage inflammation and discomfort. 

• Digestive issues: If you're feeling sluggish or bloated, this specialist massage technique can help improve digestion and encourage your body to process waste more efficiently. 

 

Many people wonder what a manual lymphatic drainage massage is like or how it is different from the specialist sports massage therapy I offer here in Chorley. 

 

MLD massage is a series of gentle, rhythmic strokes with light pressure designed to stimulate the lymphatic system. If's not as deep as a traditional massage but focuses on a slo, flowing motion that helps the lymph fluid move through your body. I'll adjust my technique to suit your specific needs, whether that's focusing on post-surgical recovery, managing stress, or reducing swelling.
