It was in the early 1930s that Emil Vodder and his wife, physiotherapists in Cannes, developed a manual lymphatic drainage technique. The lymphatic system is still under study and its entire functioning is not known exactly, but it is certainly the basis of the health of our entire organism, since it is strongly connected to the blood circulation and allows the transport of interstitial proteins, guaranteeing our immune defenses.
Manual lymphatic drainage is often considered only an aesthetic treatment, because it helps fight swelling and cellulite, but in reality it acts on the whole body by stimulating the immune system through the activity of the lymph nodes.
As proof of its effectiveness, in some countries abroad, for example in Germany, this massage is also practiced in hospitals as an adjunct to pre and post-operative therapies and as a manual draining therapy and is reimbursed by the national health system.
It is performed on a bed, without the use of oils; it consists of very delicate maneuvers yet capable of draining the entire lymphatic system, which is 80% of the dermis.
