Medical Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and Sport Therapy
Originally I was taught massage as part of my Karate club in the 80’s but it wasn’t until 2012 that I started on the full journey starting learning about Ayurvedic health and nutrition moving into sport therapy and then MLD. Due to the clinical nature my retraining in MLD yearly.
Medical Lymphatic Drainage is highly skilled form of drainage. Medical is sometimes used to differentiate the clinical skills, allowing us to deal with patients with compromised systems. I use two versions, one taught and used by the NHS & Macmillan Cancer which is Casley-Smith and a newer method by LTA called Fill & Flush (FG-MLD®).

MLD helps with various conditions that include fatigue and pain. Research points to the MLD as assisting in the management of various disease such as Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s.

Chronic and post-surgery treatment for oedema (swelling)/lymphoedema. If swelling is present and not reducing, there is a chance it may become lymphoedema and must be dealt with to avoid further complications.
Lymphoedema has a 6 pillar approach to it’s maintenance of which MLD forms one, as a certified therapist I can assist with insight to all of these but the most important one is the willingness of the patient to take control.

Some types of surgery and cancer treatment may affect the lymph system, and this may need to be managed. This is where certified therapists can assist as it is not just about the treatment but also the education provided and the observations of progression.

Sessions for MDL start at £85

Sports therapy

Treatment for soft tissue injuries, general aches and pains using different massage techniques. I mix holistic with clinical to try and obtain the best outcome for clients.

Where required the use of modalities such as: Ultrasound, Red Light Therapy, Static and dynamic Cupping and Kinesio Taping and vibration devices like the massage gun.

I have used these successfully for a number of years and have had some good results.

Sports Therapy Sessions start at £50

Registered with the CNHC
