DISCOVER MLD
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a slow, rhythmic hands-on treatment that directly targets the Lymphatic System. By following the pathways of lymphatic vessels, MLD promotes fluid circulation, calms the nervous system, and provides pain relief. MLD is used in the management of lymphedema, a chronic condition caused by an obstruction of the lymphatic system resulting in excessive fibrotic edema in the skin.
A Holistic Tradition
Dr. Emil Vodder (1896-1986), a pioneering figure in lymphatic health, introduced the world to Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), also known as the Vodder Technique. In the 1920s, Dr. Vodder and his wife Estrid embarked on a journey of natural healing in southern France, focusing on the treatment of swollen lymph nodes caused by respiratory infections. Their innovative approach led to remarkable results. In 1935, Dr. Vodder publicly shared his groundbreaking findings, marking a new era in the use of lymphatic drainage for various health conditions and diseases.
