Management of Lymphoedema
MLD: Manual Lymphatic Drainage
is a special very light form of massage. It should not, however, be confused with or regarded as a substitute for conventional recreational massage. The purpose of MLD is to move lymph fluid from a swollen, congested region into the parts of the lymphatic system which are still functioning, from where the lymph fluid can then be transported away, easing any swelling.
