Circulation of fluids helps to reroute stagnant fluid in the skin
Removes metabolic wastes, excess water, toxins, bacteria, large protein molecules and foreign substances from the tissues, making lymphatic drainage especially effective
in tissue regeneration. Scars, stretch marks, wrinkles and fracture, or
surgical-incision sites, are improved.
Fats are evacuated through lymphatic vessels. These vessels are
located in virtually every area of the body where fats may accumulate.
The immune system is stimulated through increased lymph flow. This
has been found to help with chronic or subacute inflammatory processes —
chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune disease, bronchitis, sinusitis,
amygdalitis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, arthritis, acne and eczema.
Stimulating the lymphatics (the “fight or flight” response) can be
very helpful in dealing with stress, depression and sleeping disorders.
Chronic pain is reduced as the drainage alleviates tissue-fluid stagnation and possibly inhibits pain receptors.
MLD through its gentle rhythmical precise hand movements, alleviates
pain by greatly reducing the pain signals sent to the brain.
Relaxes the sympathetic nervous system, thus helping to relieve stress.
