Dr Holloway’s manual lymphatic drainage technique improves the responsiveness and muscle recovery to the athletes by improving circulatory function, restoring restricted mobility between the injured tissues pain is relieved or reduced, and sensory awareness is optimized. On the other hand, manual lymphatic drainage provides relaxation and well-being, helping to recover and maintain health.Whether you are a weekend warrior, professional athlete or somewhere in between, the ability to operate at maximum efficiency and produce winning results is both exhilarating and rewarding. The competitive advantage athletes need is optimizing peak performance in competition and recovering quickly so they can participate in the next competition at the height of their physical capability.Most athletes are interested in reducing their recovery time following intense exercise or sporting events.
A recent study in the American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, published in 2006, demonstrates the effectiveness of Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) in decreasing athletic recovery time. The study considered the effect of manual lymph drainage removes the main three muscle enzymes that create lactic acid causing the breakdown of tissue during exercise and creating sore muscles from their intense training sessions causing longer recovery muscle recovery time.
