This free online course teaches you how to perform lymphatic drainage massage therapy (LDM) to boost immune systems. Lymph drainage massage (LDM) is gaining popularity due to its potential health benefits such as reduced swelling, inflammation and discomfort associated with lymphedema. This treatment method focuses on the lymphatic system, which is an important part of the immune system that helps the body fight disease by producing and transporting white blood cells required for immune response. We explain how to perform LDM to boost patients’ immune systems.
