Oedema massage, also known as manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), is a gentle, specialized form of massage therapy designed to reduce oedema (also spelled edema), which is the buildup of fluid in the body's tissues. This type of massage stimulates the lymphatic system, helping it move lymph fluid out of swollen areas and back into circulation.
