For years, we have taught our MLD stretching, stroking and v-flushing strokes to be applied in retrograde, from distal to proximal on the arms and legs. Some of our students questioned this because of training they received elsewhere, where they were trained that taught all MLD strokes are to be applied from proximal to distal which is different than how we teach at CE Institute LLC.
We allow students to apply MLD strokes in whichever direction they feel is appropriate, whether it be distal to proximal or proximal to distal, as long as they are working towards the regional nodes of the area. And we will continue our distal to proximal MLD strokes because of the recent published science that supports this successful retrograde practice:
In the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Publishing: September 2021 - Volume 148 - Issue 3 - p 425e-436e doi: 10.1097/PRS.0000000000008252, there was an article published called: Retrograde Manual Lymphatic Drainage following Vascularized Lymph Node Transfer to Distal Recipient Sites for Extremity Lymphedema: A Retrospective Study and Literature Review
In this article, they stated that after a vascularized node transfer procedure: "standard retrograde manual lymphatic drainage significantly improved circumferential reduction rates and Lymphedema-Specific Quality-of-Life Questionnaire scores."

We have found this and so much more research to build supportsour MLD teachings and practice. We said we'd post updates for our training on our social media whenever possible, as new information develops. This information was only published a couple months ago, and we hope you enjoy the knowledge that working distally to proximally with MLD strokes can be effective!

I was suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS TYPE II) The doctors keep telling me that there is no cure but i believe that there is a cure somewhere and they don’t want people to get cured. I tried searching online if I could see anything that will help me and a comment on YouTube on how Dr Omofuma help to cure herpes with herbs and i also saw so many comments about him on many web pages on how he had helped and cured so many people suffering from HERPES , HPV, CANCER, HIV/AIDS, COLD SORE etc. So I contacted him through his email and I shared my problems with him and he sent me the herbs through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it. It took me two weeks to finish the herbs and after I finished using it, he told me to go for a medical test, behold the result was negative, now I am HERPES VIRUS free.

Carrie Kilman - November 24, 2025
Hello, my name is Carrie Kilman from Birmingham, UK. Last month, my fiancé broke up with me, leaving me devastated. I spent weeks agonizing, crying, and feeling guilty, sinking into the lowest point of my life. I was so overwhelmed by stress and depression that I feared for my health. Desperate for a solution, I searched online and discovered a powerful spell caster named Dr. Peter, known for solving relationship problems. After reaching out to him and explaining my situation, he assured me that my fiancé would return within 24 hours. To my amazement, my fiancé called, apologized, and wanted us to be together again. Thanks to Dr. Peter, we’re now happily reunited. If you need help, contact Dr. Peter at drpeterspellcaster21@gmail.com or WhatsApp +2348162247974
