Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, non-invasive technique designed to stimulate the lymphatic system and flow of lymph fluid. MLD can be be effective in treating many different pathologies by supporting the body's natural healing process. It is particularly beneficial pre- and post-operatively and in the treatment and control of lymphoedema (chronic swelling).

If you do have a diagnosis of Lymphoedema then we can also provide MLD as part of a Combined Decongestive Therapy (MLD-CDT) and can support with bandaging, measuring for compression and remedial exercise. If you would like to discuss CDT then please get in touch with me prior to booking.

When your body heals after surgery or injury, scar tissue forms as part of the natural repair process. But scar tissue isn't the same as the tissue it replaces. It's more fibrotic, less mobile, and can form adhesions that stick together the layers beneath your skin.

These adhesions can cause tightness, restrict movement, create numbness or hypersensitivity, and sometimes lead to pain that seems unconnected to the scar itself.

Scar therapy can help :
i) stimulate changes to scar tissue on the skin surface, and to adhesions or fibrosis in the underlying tissue;
ii) reduce common symptoms, such as pain, sensitivity or numbness;
iii) reduce tightness and improve range of movement; and
iv) promote functional and cosmetic improvements.
