The spring is creeping in slowly and it’s cleansing season for many. I highly recommend prioritizing Lymphatic Massage this spring. During the winter season the body holds on to water for survival indoors — while the modern world doesn’t go into a standstill during winter and people remain active, the body doesn’t know that and it follows physiological patterns.

Simply explained, lymfatic drainage is an excellent form of bodywork that helps reactivate and facilitate the natural flow of water in the body. It releases the excess toxins and other slush accumulated in the lymf system (excess hormones and other left over substances that don’t leave the body naturally). Because of a tendency to sedentary lifestyle and shallow breathing practices we have lost the ability to naturally pump the system. The result, excess water retention, feeling bloated, sluggish, stressed and exhausted.

Lymphatic drainage is a great form of support for allergies and immunity. Also, wonderful for stress reduction. The benefits are seriously endless and the massage itself is so relaxing.

Lymphatic drainage gives best results when done manually as the technique requires very mild and repetitive strokes to truly activate the system. It’s important to note that the response time can vary from one to several sessions but my experience as a MLD therapist is that every client leaves rested, relaxed and feeling lighter. Both Vodder and Brazilian forms of MLD give great results when performed by a trained therapist.

If you want to know more or book a session in Oslo, I offer MLD Soleus massasjeklinikk and if you don’t live in Oslo I highly encourage you to find a therapist trained in MLD to support your cleaning journey this spring.

Lymfemassasje, også kalt manuell lymfedrenasje, utføres etter et fast program med fokus på å fremme sirkulasjonen i lymfesystemet.

Therapeutic Massage or MLD During Pregnancy?

While both practices offer relaxation and therapeutic benefits, their techniques and effects differ in subtle but important ways.

Pregnancy massage is safe throughout a healthy pregnancy unless the mother or baby’s health is at risk. There’s no strict timeline for when it can be performed, but certain health conditions—like high blood pressure, inflammation, or gestational diabetes—may limit eligibility, particularly for MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage). MLD is very gentle, but always consult your healthcare provider if you’re unsure or have any health concerns.

Pregnancy massage is typically done with the mother lying on her side. During the first 12–16 weeks, lying face down briefly may still be comfortable. MLD is performed in a side-lying or semi-reclined position for optimal support.

Deep pressure should be avoided in pregnancy massage. Techniques may involve firm strokes and trigger points, and oils can be used, but aroma-infused ones should only be applied by certified aromatherapists.

MLD uses gentle, rhythmic movements to stimulate lymph flow, focusing only on the limbs—neck, arms, and legs—where swelling is common in pregnancy.
Ultimately, massage can be beneficial at any stage of a healthy pregnancy, but always seek medical clearance if you have concerns.

Most massage techniques (with a few exceptions) are safe from early pregnancy to delivery. So, how do you choose between Therapeutic Massage and Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)?

Pregnancy Therapeutic Massage is great for addressing pain, stress, headaches, and general discomfort—anything not otherwise contraindicated. It also supports better sleep, relaxation, and emotional well-being.

MLD offers similar benefits while also supporting the lymphatic system, which can become compressed as the uterus grows. Healthy lymph flow helps boost immunity, reduce swelling, and support overall body function—especially in later pregnancy.

Ideally, both should be part of a regular routine. Massage isn’t just a reward at the end—it’s essential support throughout your pregnancy journey.
