Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a light, rhythmic hands-on therapy designed to encourage the natural movement of lymphatic fluid through the body. By supporting lymphatic circulation, it can assist with fluid balance, recovery and tissue health, while also providing a deeply calming and relaxing experience. Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle treatment and can be adapted to suit the individual and their specific needs.

MLD may be useful as part of a supportive approach for:

  • Recovery following injury or surgery

  • Supporting recovery around sporting activities and events

  • Swelling, fluid retention and oedema

  • Supporting normal lymphatic and immune function

  • Inflammation and tissue recovery

  • Relaxation, stress reduction and general wellbeing

  • Headaches, migraines and neuralgia

  • Sinus congestion and hay fever

  • Tinnitus and Ménière's disease

We now provide MLD at Body of Work, with Trina and Tania Woolford both completing their Level 1 and 2 training earlier this year.
