Class Description (LDT ONLY):
Lymph Drainage Therapy is a cutting-edge, hands-on method of lymphatic drainage developed by Bruno Chikly, MD, DO, LMT.
It was developed from his award-winning research on the lymphatic system, consistent with recent scientific discoveries.
LDT1 builds on traditional lymph drainage techniques by adding precision. LDT is the first technique that enables practitioners to detect and palpate the specific rhythm, direction, depth, and quality of the lymph flow anywhere in the body. Skilled practitioners with developed listening skills can practice Manual Lymphatic Mapping (MLM) of the lymphatic vessels.
LDT practitioners use their hands to assess and enhance overall circulation and to determine the best alternative pathways for draining stagnant body fluids (lymph, interstitial, synovial, etc.). Therapists work with flat hands, using all the fingers to simulate gentle, specific wave-like movements.
These subtle manual maneuvers activate lymphatic and interstitial fluid circulation and stimulate the function of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems.
