Lymphatic drainage is a manual technique that is used when different parts of the body, particularly the legs and arms, retain fluid. The built-up fluid is returned to the lymphatic system, which then disposes of it or distributes it correctly.

This is a great method for dealing with built-up fluid resulting from structural and/or al imbalances, for example during pregnancy.

Specific equipment, such as that used in pressotherapy, can be a perfect complement to this technique.
