Our Features
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD)
What MLD is:
What MLD is NOT:
~ MLD is a technique to stimulate the body's Lymphatic System with an established protocol directly to the vessels.
~ This is light-pressure contact without oils
~ MLD is used pre and post-surgery to accelerate healing from surgery.
~ This is work that improves aesthetics as well as body function
~ Effective way to soften dense tissue like fibrosis, fibrous breast tissue, and rigid scalp fascia due to stagnant Lymph.
~ MLD is not massage! There is no glide, slide, or pressure.
~ MLD is not body sculpting or contouring
~ This is not a miracle cure for anything including weight loss or cellulite
~ MLD is not vigorous work or hard on the skin

* This is not a complete list so please reach out to discuss your symptoms
** You may need a note from a medical provider before receiving MLD
~ These are clothes sessions, so be sure to wear comfortable clothing. Sleeveless tops and shorts are ideal.
~ MLD requires a series of sessions to stimulate, clear, and reset the system so our first 3 sessions will ideally be scheduled over one or two weeks.
~ Individual sessions are available for purchase after the initial series is complete.
~ Sessions include instruction for self-MLD techniques so you can keep the system moving
~ You may need a medical clearance note before we begin work depending on medical conditions and symptoms that bring you to needing MLD
