What is Integrated Lymph Drainage?
Integrated Lymph Drainage cleanses the connective tissue of inflammatory materials and toxins, enhances the activity of the immune system, decreases pain and enhances the functioning of the parasympathetic nervous system.
It thereby facilitates the healing of injuries, chronic conditions, inflammations and edemas. Some examples of conditions which can be successfully treated with ILD are:
- Primary & Secondary Lymphedema
- Headaches
- Traumatic injuries
- Sinusitis
- Burns
- Whiplash
- Ulcers
- Sports Injuries
- Varicose Veins
- Pre & Post operatively
- Pediatric ear infections
- Repetitive Strains
- Scars
- Chronic Bronchitis
- Raynaud’s Syndrome
- Rheumatic diseases
- Fibrocystic Breast Disease
When ILD is combined with other subtle therapies, treatment schedules are shortened and tissues are re-balanced which often prevents the reoccurence of symptoms. Integrated Lymph Drainage (ILD) is a precise technique designed to accelerate the normal functioning of the lymph vessel system. It is a gentle, rhythmic, hands-on technique that will enable the therapist to work holistically and to achieve surprising results with their clients.
