Lymphatic drainage

Effective support for the lymphatic system

Manual lymphatic drainage is a special form of therapy that is used to support and activate a malfunctioning lymphatic system. The lymphatic system has the important task of removing and filtering excess fluids from the tissue.

Advantages of lymphatic drainage:

  • Tissue decongestion: Effective reduction of swelling through targeted hand movements.
  • Pain relief: Reduction of pain by activating the lymph flow.
  • Prevention of scarring: Prevention of severe, overly firm scarring.
  • Improvement of mobility: Elimination of movement restrictions through decongestion and tissue loosening.

How does lymphatic drainage work?

Our experienced therapists at PhysioGEHRKEN use special rhythmic, circular and pumping hand movements to move the fluids towards the neck with very little pressure. These gentle techniques promote lymph flow and support the function of the lymphatic system.

Therapy goals:

  • Activation of the lymphatic system: Support and activation of the lymph flow to decongest the tissue.
  • Tissue loosening: loosening and softening of the tissue to improve mobility.
  • Pain relief: Reduction of pain by reducing swelling and relieving the tissue.

Areas of application of lymphatic drainage:

  • After cancer: Treatment after removal of lymph nodes.
  • Injuries and accidents: Supporting healing after injuries.
  • Venous diseases: Improvement of lymphatic function in venous diseases.
  • Post-operative treatment: promotes healing and reduces swelling after surgery.
