Manual Lymphatic Drainage
ABOUT MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
The lymphatic system is part of the body’s immune system. It helps to fight infection and acts as a toxin filter. Unlike blood, which is pumped around your body by your heart, the lymph system relies on pressure from your blood vessels and movement from your muscles for its flow. Its function is to transport nutrients and oxygen to all cells, carrying white blood cells and antibodies and collecting toxins to be eliminated by the liver.
Lymph drainage massage uses gentle, rhythmic strokes to stretch the skin in the desired direction to stimulate and increase lymphatic flow where it has become sluggish. It may also promote optimal functioning of the lymphatic vessels.
The treatment consists of light circular strokes on the whole body working towards all major lymph nodes. This includes around the face and neck, shoulders, arms, hands, abdomen, legs, feet and back.
A full body manual Lymphatic Drainage treatment lasts for one hour. We also offer a 45 minute session which can be carried out on a specific area like the legs or upper body. As lymph is being produced constantly, regular treatments are advised.

TESTIMONIALS
What a relief to find someone who is a very skilled practitioner in Reflexology and offers a treatment that is so much more than just a foot massage. My sessions with Giuliana have proved to be an excellent investment in my well-being. They have alleviated stress and guaranteed a good night’s sleep
Belinda
I have been seeing Vicky for a few weeks now and I can’t recommend her more: she’s a great therapist, best lymphatic drainage massage I had in years, professional and most importantly, I can see big improvement in my circulation and skin.
Martina
I have had first class, caring treatment at the Forge clinic, both with Maureen for Acupuncture and Vicky for Lymphatic Drainage and other massage and body work. I am recovering from hospital treatment and these two practitioners have been vital for my wellness. I would highly recommend the whole clinic.

“Rory is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable practitioner, who was very positive about the outcome of our treatments. There was great improvement in my back pain after a couple of sessions and I am now happy to say that I am pain free and confident I have the tools I need to avoid it in the future!
