Conditions Treated with Lymphatic Drainage

A Targeted Approach to Lymphatic Health

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) supports the body’s ability to move fluid, reduce swelling, and maintain proper balance.

​

At Full Circle Vitality, lymphatic therapy is used to support a wide range of conditions related to fluid retention, inflammation and post-surgical recovery.

​

Common Conditions Supported by Lymphatic Drainage
