Foundations of Manual Lymph Drainage

Very informative!

Such a helpful book in my experience. I am so glad I found it. Review based on my own experience with lymphedema. It has been very helpful in understanding and managing my own lymphedema.

Attended a lymph drainage 3 day seminar and learned a lot only to forget a lot of what I learned after a 3 month lag. Now I have a patient in need of this treatment and this book has been a great tool for refreshing my knowledge

I am a massage therapist, and I took a Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) class. This book was on the Resources list. It was a decision between this book and the $200 "Foeldi's Textbook of Lymphology". I purchased this book, and am GLAD I did! It sticks strictly to the task of MLD. It addresses the physiology of the lymphatic system only to the point of what I need to know as a MT (great diagrams and pictures of how things work). It shows the full MLD sequence in pictures (with markered-in arrows and lines on the model pointing the way to the correct drainage points) and descriptions. Since I do NOT wish to continue past MLD (into lymphedema treatment, etc) this is just perfect for me. This small book is also a great "primer" into further studies. If you wish to further your education into Lymphedema studies, then by all means purchase the $200 Foeldi book. If you wish to utilize MLD in a superficial, non-medical sense on folks who have NO medical issues [no lymph node removal, no previous cancer history, etc.] then this is the book to go with. PS ~ "Foeldi" and "Foldi" are the SAME AUTHOR. This smaller book is written by the same person who wrote the big book.

A lot of medical terminology but a very thorough guide to the lymphatic system!

This has a lot of knowledge that is important for basic knowledge. It is very very advanced. I would recommend you read it and then seek a massage school teacher to set up a technique

This book was a require companion to a Lymphatic Drainage class that I took for my massage therapy practice. While the diagrams and instructions are good, it is still no substitute for hands-on learning from a practicing expert who can give feedback and answer questions. I love having it to refer back to as needed.

this book was not what I actually wanted in lymph drainage manual, so I returned it. The mechanics of the book are great, but I wanted a more detailed hands on protocol.

Good book
