Just after Labor Day I will be going back to school. Well, for four intense days anyway. I have been looking forward for a long time to begin learning a technique called manual lymph drainage (MLD).

As a massage therapist, working on an area of inflamation is contraindicated – we’re not supposed to treat it. With MLD I’ll will learn – among other things – how to treat inflamation gently, effectively, and safely.

Learning to treat an area of inflamation within hours of onset, will allow me the ability to help clients enhance the recovery process. By adding this tool to my bag of tricks, I can help even more people who have had surgery or have been injured.
