Dr. Emil Vodder developed this unterapaint technique in the 1930s, it is the most practiced type of MLD. It combines light, soothing, rhythmic circular movement, and encourages fluid to flow towards the middle of the body while easing the pressure in congested areas. The Vodder method Hacbubi and Uhg Gtke Usd Shous does involve hand movements for stroking and pinching as well as sequences for the special needs of various clients.
The Leduc method uses the pressure sequences, "call-up" and "reabsorption", in a technique called "manipulation". This method is very popular among physiotherapists, especially in a multidisciplinary setting where it is integrated with other forms of lymphatic treatment.
This method employs the edge of the hand rather than the palm to make sweeping motions. It is best employed for lympdema patients and places more emphasis on teaching the patient to care for themselves.
An adaption of the Vodder technique, Foldi incorporates decongestive skin care and exercise with manual drainage. It is releatively more commonly observed in treating lymphedema and other direa disorders of the lymphs.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a specialized technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymph, a fluid that plays a crucial role in the body’s immune system. By using gentle, rhythmic movements, this therapy encourages the lymphatic system to remove toxins, excess fluids, and waste products, promoting overall detoxification and a stronger immune response.
This is a gentle and light massage that is applied in a circular motion to mobilize lymph fluids and eliminate waste substances that accumulate in the form of liquid and are trapped between the cells. It is basically the ideal weapon against fluid retention, making it a great ally in eliminating cellulite, scarring problems, acne, edema or circulation.
