Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage:

MLD (Level 1) is a soft-touch technique used to reduce swelling and move lymphatic fluid in the body. The lymphatic system is your second circulatory system and an important party of the immune system. Fun anatomy fact: 5% of your body's fluid is in your blood, 15% is in the lymph system. The lymph system is more passive than your circulatory system and can sometimes benefit from a little help via massage.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage is a western modality that is usually performed on a table; the client wears loose, comfortable clothing and no lubricant is used.
