MLD (Manual Lymph Drainage), is a very gentle massage using light rhythmic motions to stimulate the lymph and fluid movement in the body. Gentle stretches, applied to the lymph collectors of the body, moving the blocked lymphatic fluids, encouraging lymph drainage. The normal pulse of the lymphatic system is 10-12 beats per minute. MLD increases this flow to 100-120 beats per minute. The increase movement greatly facilitates the speed at which the body can rejuvenate itself.
