Therapy

What is lymphatic drainage?

Manual lymphatic drainage in Muttenz is a gentle decongestive treatment technique. It stimulates lymph flow and reduces fluid build-up in the tissue – for example after surgery, injuries or with lymphoedema.

Special massage techniques are performed gently and rhythmically. They stimulate the lymph vessels and promote the removal of lymphatic fluid from the tissue – so swelling goes down.

Focus
