Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) education for post-surgical conditions is a growing interest amongst our students. But, many manual lymphatic drainage techniques were created for oncology treatment and chronic swelling conditions. What's important to note today is that old school MLD techniques used for lymphedema should not be the same treatment for acute post-surgical MLD. Treating a client's post-surgical swelling the same as chronic lymphedema with MLD is ill-advised.
SWELLING IS A GENERAL PHYSICAL BODYWORK CONTRAINDICATION! Almost ALL chronic or acute swollen soft tissue can TEAR with inappropriate pressure and movement. As such, MLD practitioners must be extremely careful when working with swelling. Manual lymphatic drainage techniques are designed to relieve swelling without damaging the underlying tissues when properly applied.
As such, practitioners should be using different MLD techniques and protocols to treat acute swelling versus chronic swelling. If you are new to the MLD industry, be sure to seek education including protocols and techniques that provide both. And if you have previously trained in MLD, think about the strokes and techniques that you are using and adapt accordingly if you are able, or consider training in these new adaptions with an educational provider like us. Anyone who is practicing the same techniques for both acute and chronic swelling may have less effective treatment than a practitioner who has specific strokes, techniques and protocols for chronic versus acute medical conditions.

Good day viewers, I wish to share my testimony with all of you. I have daily 9 to 5 jobs, but while I work, I try my luck at playing instant Lotto. On this particular day, I decided to seek help online regarding tips for winning the lottery, and I saw many individuals testifying about Meduza spells. I reached out to him and informed him that I needed help to win the lottery, and he clarified the process to me, stating that after he casts the spell, it will take 48 hours for him to provide me the winning numbers, which I accepted. I followed all his instructions, and he provided me with the numbers to enter the Lottery. After the draw the following morning, I received a notification on the Lottery app on my phone indicating that I was the lucky winner of $273 million on the New Jersey Lottery and I’m here to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Meduza. If you seek for assistance in any aspect of your life, WhatsApp Meduza via: +1 (807) 907-2687 or Email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com

My name is Mark Wong and I’m from Barcelona, Spain.
Before my computer was stolen two weeks ago, I had been saving in my cryptocurrency wallet for years. I was upset and thought there was no chance I would ever get my data and assets back. I went to the authorities, but they were unable to assist me in recovering my cryptocurrency assets. It wasn’t until I found a website about the 🌐 https://optimistichackergaius.com company, a reputable security firm that has been successfully recovering cryptocurrency and data for years. I contacted them regarding my account, and within 72 hours, OPTIMISTIC HACKER GAIUS was able to recover my cryptocurrency assets and data, as well as protect my wallet and data from hackers. I sincerely appreciate it for their service, and I can guarantee that they have a 100% success rate.
