Manual Lymphatic Drainage – Sinus/Headache Treatment

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a gentle technique that stimulates lymphatic flow to relieve sinus pain and pressure as well as headaches.

Specializing in the Vodder style of Manual Lymphatic Drainage, our certified therapists provide a traditional MLD session that utilizes LIGHT pressure to open the lymphatic system to allow for the trapped fluid that is causing headaches, sinus/allergy pain and pressure to be eliminated naturally through your lymphatic system that runs through your entire body. You’ll enjoy better breathing, a clearer head and less pain and pressure.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is also a great session to incorporate regularly if you suffer from seasonal allergies. We have been able to help people break up with their Flonase, go outside and enjoy the weather instead of running from pollen, and sleep soundly because it doesn’t feel like their head is in a vice grip.

Starting Price: $50
