A precise, light-to-touch therapy recognized by both the international wellness and medical communities, Dr. Vodder’s Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is the perfect rejuvenation and rehabilitative therapy.
Manual Lymph Drainage may be used for many conditions:
- Elective surgery
-Stress
- After illness
- Cosmetic disorders: acne, rosacea, scars, burns, keloids,
The healthy beautiful skin that people seek requires a healthy dermis. MLD can create clean, clear, radiant skin when performed by a properly trained professional.
The most effective treatment of the dermis comes from cleansing the loose connective tissue (LCT), which is the cellular structure in the dermis. The main function of the lymph system is to cleanse the LCT by removing excess water, proteins, fats, and cellular waste that is not removed by circulatory system. A healthy lymph system decongests the dermis, allowing fresh nutrients such as oxygen, vitamins, and minerals to nourish the cells of the skin.
MLD restores healthy lymph functioning in aging and stressed bodies by increased removal of waste products.
The face and neck are particularly effected by MLD due to the large number of lymph vessels and nodes that are found in the area. Pre and post operative procedures are helped by removing congestion, accelerating the healing process and minimizing scarring.
Pre-and Post surgery considerations:
Pre-surgery benefits:
-Prepares tissue for the surgery by removing excess water, toxins, bacteria, metabolic wastes
-Facilitates the immune system by accelerating production of lymphocytes
-Induces a state of relaxation
Post-Surgery benefits:
-Alleviates side effects on medication and immobilization
-Reduces pain and alleviates spasms
-Reduces swelling and minimizes bruising
-Stimulates fluid circulation optimizing the healing process
-Prevents the formation of keloid scars
