CERTIFIED TECHNIQUE

Manual Lymphatic Drainage in Orlando — Vodder Technique

Vodder-technique lymphatic drainage — a genuinely different discipline from massage, and one you should only book from someone certified in it.

Manual lymphatic drainage is not light massage. It is a specific, trained sequence of very light, rhythmic strokes that move fluid through the lymphatic pathways in the direction they actually drain. Done wrong it does nothing; done with too much pressure it collapses the vessels you are trying to open.

Lauren is certified in the Vodder technique, which is the method most post-surgical protocols are written around. That certification is the reason to book this here rather than to book 'a massage' and hope.

HOW IT RUNS

The session, step by step

Check that MLD is appropriate

There are real contraindications — active infection, certain cardiac and kidney conditions, untreated DVT. This comes first, every time.

1

3

Work proximal to distal

Clearing the trunk before the limb. Working the swollen part first is the classic mistake and it achieves nothing.

2

Open the terminus first

Drainage starts at the neck, because there is no point pushing fluid toward a route that is not open yet.

4

Sequence and repeat

MLD's effect is cumulative. A course of sessions does what a single one cannot.

It moves interstitial fluid into and along the lymphatic vessels, which reduces swelling and supports the immune traffic that runs through the lymph nodes. The pressure is deliberately very light — lymphatic vessels sit just under the skin.
