Developed in France in 1932 by Emil and Estrid Vodder it has grown to be a modern manual technique used to assist lymphatic flow. The technique used is very gentle — the procedure will physically stimulate the lymphatic system to move excessive fluids from the body’s lymphatic system. The movement of this excess lymphatic fluid detoxifies unhealthy the surrounding connective tissues.

Lymph fluid is usually encouraged to flow by the body’s natural motion of muscles, organs and other body parts. When the lymphatic nodes or vessels become damaged due to surgery, injury or for any other reason, This treatment gently stimulates the lymphatic fluid flow faster.
It is safe for almost everyone, but before beginning any treatment, we perform a detailed consultation to find out if you are considered a candidate for this treatment.
