Manual lymphatic drainage of a specific part - Massage Rzeszów

This is the manual (hands-on) stimulation of the lymphatic system aimed at improving and supporting the natural physiological mechanism of lymphatic drainage. Specific techniques are employed, and the movements are smooth and gentle, facilitating the movement of lymph. Lymphatic vessels are located just beneath the skin, so the techniques are applied with moderate force, avoiding pressure.

Manual lymphatic drainage follows the flow of lymph and tissue fluids toward the lymph nodes. Regular application of lymphatic drainage enhances the transport capacity of lymph and supports the formation of new, well-functioning collateral lymphatic vessels in the skin.

Indications for manual lymphatic drainage include:

Lymphatic edema (primary – congenital insufficiency/defect of the lymphatic system, secondary – acquired insufficiency of the lymphatic system)
Fat edema (edema of fatty tissue with a low pain threshold)
Fat-lymphatic edema (mixed form of edema)
Venous-lymphostatic edema (edema resulting from venous insufficiency)
Post-traumatic and postoperative edema, scleroderma
Cyclically spontaneous edema (mainly in women with edema of the upper and lower limbs, breasts, resulting from increased permeability of capillaries)
