Myofascial Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (also referred to as simply MFLD) is a very gentle type of manual therapy used to drain excess fluid from the body and improve the overall functioning of the lymphatic (immune) system.
MFLD is most commonly used to treat Lymphedema, which is characterized by the blockage of lymph nodes in the arms and legs.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage originated in Europe during the 1930s.
It was first used on patients as an effective way to detoxify (ridding of waste) the body.
