Conditions Supported

Explore how Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Visceral Manipulation support chronic illness, detoxification, and post-surgical recovery.

Addressing the lymphatic system is beneficial when treating Lyme disease and its co-infections.
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in detoxification and managing pathogen die-off from treatment, as well as reducing inflammation.
When the system is congested or not functioning optimally, it can exacerbate symptoms and contribute to a Herxheimer reaction.


For people who are sensitive to mold and mycotoxins, even minor exposures can triggger an immediate inflammatory response and overwhelm the lymphatic system, leading to congestion and impaired drainage. This cycle overwhelms detox pathways, making it harder for the body to clear toxins and metabolic debris, often resulting in acute flare-ups or ongoing chronic symptoms.


Autoimmune conditions and chronic conditions, such as Lyme disease, mold Autoimmune conditions and chronic conditions, such as Lyme disease, mold illness (including CIRS), long COVID, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), may be complicated by genetic factors like MTHFR, which can reduce the body’s ability to detoxify effectively. When these systems are impaired, the body struggles to release metabolic debris, leading to toxin buildup and inflammation that can intensify symptoms.


Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) plays an important role in post-surgical care by reducing swelling and fluid buildup, supporting tissue healing, improving circulation, and easing discomfort from scar tissue and adhesions. For those at risk of lymphedema or cording, it helps manage symptoms and preserve range of motion. Regular MLD sessions, tailored to your recovery, can maintain progress, reduce stiffness, and support healing through all stages of rehabilitation.


Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) supports fluid movement, reduces swelling and discomfort, improves range of motion, and helps prevent tissue fibrosis. It also enhances circulation and potentially aids in the reduction of pain. These are all important for managing long-term symptoms.


Maintance & Continued Care

Once your initial sessions are complete, regular maintenance is recommended.
This helps prevent loss of progress and maintains healthy tissue mobility, supporting the optimal function of the body’s systems.
Sessions also address changes that can occur over time due to chronic inflammation or exposures.
