Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Service Description

Manual Lymphatic Drainage & Neurolymphatic Wellness Support CLT • MLD-C • Licensed Massage Therapist I am a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT) and Manual Lymphatic Drainage–Certified (MLD-C) practitioner trained to work with clients who have lymphedema. While I can provide lymphedema care when appropriate, my specialty is using lymphatic-based therapy for general wellness, prevention, and whole-body support — especially for those looking to reduce systemic inflammation, improve fluid movement, and support the body’s natural detox and recovery pathways. The lymphatic system plays a key role in immune function, inflammation regulation, fluid balance, tissue repair, and nervous system resilience. Because of this, lymphatic therapy can be beneficial not only for lymphedema, but also for people experiencing chronic inflammation, bloating, fluid retention, post-surgical swelling, scar tissue restriction, or stress-related nervous system overload. Training & Certifications I completed my MLD-C training through ILWTI, then attended Monarch Continuing Education under Carmen Recupero, where I became a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT). I have continued advanced training through Monarch’s Neurolymphatic program and further education in lipedema and related lymphatic dysfunction. Neurolymphatic Drainage (NLD) Focus I am especially passionate about Neurolymphatic Drainage — an integrative approach that supports lymph flow by working with the nervous system, fascia, tissue tension patterns, scar restrictions, and autonomic regulation. Integrated Tools & Modalities Sessions may include supportive modalities such as full spectrum sauna, PEMF, vibration plate, customized lymph-support topical oils, Dolphin Neurostim microcurrent for scar tissue release and tension points, Clinical Somatics for downregulation and improved mobility, and gentle craniosacral elements when appropriate. Clinical Somatics is especially powerful for lymph support because it improves diaphragm and ribcage mobility, reduces chronic muscle guarding that can compress lymph pathways, and helps shift the body out of fight-or-flight so drainage can occur more naturally. Each session is customized based on your goals, health history, and current needs. Upon intake, it may be determined that a doctor’s note is required prior to treatment.
