We consider this treatment to be the penicillin of treatments, as it treats over 40 different ailments. From edema (in most of its forms) to migraines, auto-immune, cystic acne, sinusitis, diabetes, pre and post surgical procedures, c-sections, present and post cancer treatments, rosacea, Bell's Palsy, concussions, Dementia, Alzheimer's, burns and scarring and a litany of other issues. Unlike traditional massage, MLD is a gentle, non-invasive, light pressure that moves the skin. Lymph has no pump and therefore, moves very slowly, even when healthy. The goal of MLD is to increase the speed of lymph flow, thereby creating healthy lymphocytes and removing metabolic waste, excess water and proteins, fat and cellular debris.
