 The Lymphatic System What would happen to your car or air conditioning unit if you never changed the filter? It would slow down, be less efficient and eventually break down. This is the concept to keep in mind when approaching the lymphatic system with Holistic MLD. --E. DiFalco Detoxification begins and ends in the lymphatic system. The divine design of this system is to transport nutrients throughout the body while at the same time eradicate toxins from it. Better known as the immune system, a compromised system lends itself to illness. Like a car requiring a filter change to prevent sluggish performance and breakdown, the lymphatic system is in need of scheduled maintenance for peak performance. For the past century Manual Lymph Drainage, a European modality, has been employed in the finest spas and clinics of lymphology for lymphatic wellness. It is the modality of choice to improve lymphatic flow and filtration especially when a conservative approach is physician recommended. Refined and researched by Dr. Vodder, MLD is one of the only modalities expressly designed to deliver benefits to the lymphatic system without drug or surgical intervention. The strokes are gentle enough to work with infants and offers palliative relief for some diseases/conditions. In addition, MLD brings natural beauty out by eradicating toxins within. MANUAL Lymph Drainage: A MANUAL Technique. Man Vs. Machine MLD, the first letter of the acronym is for "Manual," which is an important topic here at the MLD Institute. Manual Lymph Drainage was designed as a "hands on" modality. In more recent years, expensive "MLD devices" have been created but still can not duplicate the "stretching" dynamics of MLD without squeezing or pulling that can cause further damage to the lymphatics.

One of the most requested modalities on spa menus today is MLD for cellulite and weight reduction. The MLD Institute's mission to educate professionals is equally important for the public. MLD can help those with "trapped fluids" to release them by increasing the transportation of the fluids throughout the body that will ultimately being urinated out. However, weight reduction benefits of MLD are not the removing of fat. Bodily fluids can deposit themselves in various areas throughout the body, especially in the area of cellulite causing the tissue to bulge. The effective strokes of MLD target the trapped lymph causing it to release. Depending on how much is stored, we have had reported weight loss up to 8 lbs in a single day.

Why suffer if you don't have too! MLD effectively prepares the system responsible for healing within by cleansing all the channels through which lymph flows. Like a filter, does it do a better job if the filter is clean or if the filter is full of debris before sending more material it's way? By performing MLD pre operatively, the system is at peak performance prepared to handle the swelling, bruising and scarring that would normally take place. Post operatively, MLD continues to keep the natural healing cells flowing to accerate healing processes by eliminating swelling and bruising. In turn, this leads to less pain, less down time, better scar formation and the return to daily living in a fraction of the time.

MLD FOR ANIMALS Initially, MLD in the United States was focused primarily on people with lymphedema. Courses and certification educated professionals to become lymphedema practitioners.

Here at the Institute, MLD has been utilized by students of the Institute to help their beloved pets from dogs, cats, horses and even a dolphin. On-line you will see the before and after pictures of a dog that injured itself and the miraculous recovery made with MLD.
