What to expect during a MLD treatment?
Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a gentle, soothing treatment that feels very different from traditional massage. Rather than using firm or intense pressure, the technique involves light, rhythmic and flowing movements designed to gently support the body’s natural lymphatic circulation.
​
​
The treatment focuses on areas such as the neck, armpits, abdomen, legs and face, working around key lymph node areas to encourage a feeling of lightness and relaxation. Many clients describe lymphatic drainage as calming, restorative and deeply relaxing—a treatment that allows both the body and mind to slow down.
When you arrive at our studio, you’ll have the opportunity to personalise your experience.Â
