What is lymphatic drainage?
Lymphatic drainage uses very light, rhythmic strokes in the direction of lymphatic flow to reduce swelling, fluid retention and post-injury congestion.
How we use it
Common after ankle sprains, post-surgical swelling (knee, shoulder), during pregnancy, and for clients with chronic fluid retention or sluggish circulation.
Common conditions
Post-op swelling, ankle and knee sprains, sinus congestion, pregnancy oedema, and general immune support alongside a broader osteopathic plan. Osteopath Mitcham — hands-on osteopathy at Lifestyle Essentials, 503 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham.
