Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a specialized, very gentle technique that uses light, rhythmic movements. It is different from a typical relaxation or deep tissue massage and should be performed by a therapist with appropriate training.

What Is a Lymphatic Drainage Massage?

Manual lymphatic drainage uses gentle, skin-stretching movements intended to support the movement of lymph fluid through the lymphatic system. It does not use deep pressure, vigorous kneading, or painful techniques.

Techniques Used

  • Light rhythmic movements: Use gentle pressure at the skin's surface.

  • Sequenced techniques: Follow a specific pattern selected by a trained practitioner.

  • Slow pacing: Allows movements to remain gentle and controlled.

  • Individual assessment: Helps determine whether the service is appropriate.

Potential Benefits

  • May support fluid movement as part of an appropriate care plan.

  • Can provide a gentle, calming treatment experience.

  • May be used as part of care for certain types of swelling when recommended by a qualified healthcare professional.
