The first appointment includes a consultation to assess your individual requirements
and what you would like to achieve with MLD. You will then be advised on the number
and frequency of sessions you are likely to need.
Oil is not used for the massage and particular areas of the body are worked on according to your reason for treatment. Towels are used to keep you warm at all times. A treatment usually lasts one hour although longer sessions are possible. In many cases a series of treatments is necessary to address a condition successfully. A one off session is a relaxing experience but for complete tranquility try a two hour full body treatment!
As long as there are no medical complications, MLD is a safe treatment to use during pregnancy. It does not involve the use of any oils that could be harmful to mother or baby and is particularly useful for the relief of swollen legs and feet.
