Sports massage is a form of bodywork that aims to help athletes and active individuals improve their performance, prevent injury, and recover faster from training and competition. It involves the use of various techniques such as stretching, compression, and kneading to target specific muscles and soft tissues.
Manual Lymph Drainage is a non-invasive therapy in which a range of specialised and gentle, rhythmic, pumping techniques is used to move the skin, thus stimulating the Lymphatic System to work harder. This speeds up removal of excess fluid and waste products. MLD generally uses a light, painless pressure as your lymphatic vessels start shallow in the skin layer (dermis) and trained therapists know how to manipulate them, redirecting fluid away from swollen areas.
