Manual Lymphatic Massage (MLD) in Plymouth

Manual Lymphatic Drainage in Plymouth


Considered to be both a preventative and remedial therapy, Lymphatic Drainage is profoundly relaxing and can enhance your well-being.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage might be one of the best-kept secrets to health and beauty, carried out in a warm, friendly and professional environment.

As a Massage Therapist and complementary Health Specialist in Plymouth, I work alongside conventional medicine or as an alternative practitioner to help you achieve your best well-being, with aromatherapy and other oils enhancing your therapy experience.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is an advanced therapy that uses gentle, rhythmic pumping movements to move the direction of the lymph flow, stimulating the lymphatic system to carry vital substances to defend the body and remove waste products.

MLD and Cosmetic Surgery

Often prescribed to improve healing, speed recovery, and reduce scarring after cosmetic surgery, MLD will help reduce swelling and bruising, encourage better scar formation, and accelerate healing.

A course of MLD treatment makes the Cosmetic Surgery healing process much faster.

MLD and Breast Cancer

With around 46,000 women diagnosed each year, breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK.

Secondary Lymphoedema or swelling of the arm may occur after cancer treatment, affecting about 25% of breast cancer patients.

Lymphatic Drainage is a noninvasive treatment that can treat and control these symptoms.

A range of specialised and gentle rhythmic pumping techniques are used to move excess fluid into an area with a working lymph vessel system, helping to move excess fluid away from the swollen area so it can drain normally.

There are also different types of Lymphoedema, or swelling of limbs or other body parts, caused by an abnormal build-up of a fluid called lymph in the body's tissues tissues, such as venous insufficiency (where blood flow through your leg veins is blocked, causing blood to pool in your legs).

Manual Lymphatic Drainage can also:

  • Promote healing

    Fractures, torn ligaments and sprains. As well as wounds and burns, improve the appearance of old scars, and can reduce stretch marks.



    Improve many chronic conditions

    Including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), sinusitis, arthritis, bloating, acne and other skin conditions.



    Relieve fluid congestion

    Such as swollen ankles, tired, puffy eyes and swollen legs.


    Rheumatoid arthritis

    Joint pain, swelling and stiffness.

  • Fibromyalgia

    Chronic muscle and joint pain.


    Long Covid

    MLD has been shown to assist in the recovery from long-term COVID by reducing swelling and encouraging the lymphatic system to flow more freely, thus enhancing detoxification.
