Find Manual Lymph Drainage in the Health Spas Guide
Manual Lymph Drainage is a massage technique using rhythmic, light strokes along the lymphatic vessels and surrounding tissues to help the flow of lymph toward the heart thus reduce swelling in the affected area.
The gentle, rhythmic, pumping, massage movements follow the direction of lymph flow and produce rapid results. The effects of Manual Lymph Drainage are numerous and generally it affects the nervous system, smooth muscles, fluid movement in the connective tissue and may have an affect on the immune system.
It was developed by Danish medical doctor E. Vodder and his wife in 1932. Vodder, who also discovered and developed a new branch of medicine called Lymphology, created this method primarily to treat patients with swollen necks or limbs due to poor lymph flow.
Manual Lymph Drainage has also proven beneficial for treatment of allergies, skin problems-acne, scar tissue, water retention, puffy ankles and legs/in pregnancy and otherwise, breast tenderness/lump, cellulite and localised weight problems, sinus disorders, acne, fatigue, etc.
