LYMPHATIC BOWEN
for MLD practitioners
In partnership with
LYMPHATIC BOWEN FOR MLD HEALTH PROFESSIONALS
Addressing lymph drainage using manual therapy treatments has potentially been demonstrated to facilitate the evacuation of fluid out of intra-fascial spaces and assist in the reduction of tensions and limitations created by adhesions post-surgery or increased general oedema.
SAFE TO MOVE will be delivering this exciting introduction that fuses the Bowen technique into regular MLD approaches, expanding the offer for our clients and patients in an area that is well known to need assistance and empathy with real-time results.
