What manual lymphatic drainage involves

One technique, a lot of benefits

At our clinic we specialise in the techniques that get oxygen back into your skin and tissue. With manual lymphatic drainage, sometimes called lymphatic drainage massage, we treat fluid retention, swelling and that heavy feeling in the legs, using slow, precise therapeutic pressure rather than a conventional massage.

When is manual lymphatic drainage the right treatment?

Do you suffer from...?

We specialise in treating conditions such as swollen legs, whether they flare up with the heat or happen all year round, increases in volume that do not respond to diet or exercise, fluid retention, post-surgical oedema, lipoedema and circulatory problems, as well as the swelling that comes with pregnancy and the postnatal period.

The benefits of being treated by lymphatic drainage specialists

Results

You will feel the benefits almost immediately: we stimulate the lymphatic and circulatory systems, which are behind the swelling, we release the tension that has built up and lighten your legs, we speed up post-operative recovery by combining this technique with advanced equipment, and we support you through pregnancy and the postnatal period, with everything that comes with them.

Frequently asked questions about manual lymphatic drainage

Your questions answered before your first visit

Is this the same as a lymphatic drainage massage?

It is what most people mean when they say that, but it is not a massage in the usual sense. There is no deep pressure and no kneading. It is a slow, light, rhythmic technique that follows the direction of the lymphatic system, and it is carried out by a registered physiotherapist rather than a beauty therapist.

How soon will I notice a difference?

Most people feel their legs lighter after the very first session. For fluid retention and post-surgical swelling, the lasting results build up over a course of sessions, and we will give you a realistic idea of how many you need after your initial assessment.

Can I have it after surgery?

Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons people come to us. It helps to reduce post-surgical oedema, prevent fibrosis and speed up recovery. We will ask about your procedure and your surgeon's guidance before starting, and we adapt the technique to the stage you are at.

Is it safe during pregnancy?

Yes. It is one of the safest and most effective ways of dealing with swelling in the legs during pregnancy and after birth. We adapt your position and the pressure to the stage of your pregnancy, and we will always check your case first.
