Body contours, swollen lymph nodes and dehydration, 3 facts about the lymph system you may not know.
Why do the tendons stand out on the back of your hand? What makes lymph nodes swell during an infection? How does being dehydrated increase nocturnal micturation?
The complex interactions that control lymph flow, and how Dr Vodder's MLD exploits them
A variety of intrinsic and extrinsic forces act in a co-ordinated way to maintain a constant lymph flow. New insights into how specific factors may be at play in different tissues and body regions, provides a neat connection to how MLD is applied, and the pronounced effect we see on lymph flow as a result.
Keeping up to date in the fast moving world of lymphatics
Research on #lymphatic_physiology has advanced in leaps and bounds. #Lymph_nodes are no longer passive filtering stations, rather the very walls of the nodes are controlling some immune interactions. #Lymph_vessels are not just a system of pumping units, we now know that the #endothelial_cells are actively checking...
Smashing another long held belief in lymphology
Just when you thought the lymphology couldn't get any more fascinating, latest research show neuro-cellular connections inside lymph nodes
Lymphatic endothelial cells, so much more to know!
The study looked at how the lymphatic endothelia cells behave when there is tissue hypoxia, so there are three interesting things here. How
Brain drainage – what’s all the fuss about?
An area of great excitement in lymphatic research - and I think great confusion - is the ‘new discovery’ of ‘lymph vessels’ in the brain. The idea of functioning lymph vessels inside the brain is fascinating, as is every new discovery in lymphology, but the research doesn't exactly show this.
Why MLD should be started as early as possible.
There's nothing quite so satisfying as reading a well written paper which summarises everything interesting that we know about the lymph system. In this regard, the recent paper by Weber et al (1) is a good read for anyone fascinated by lymphatics, regardless of academic ability. Personally I can't help but make connections with the descriptions given, and what I know about lymphatic physiology and the effects of MLD. It's also very affirming when new understandings in lymphology, support the b
How do new discoveries in lymphology influence our clinical practice?
Across two decades of teaching therapists how to interact with lymphatics through MLD and Lymph Taping, I have witnessed an explosion in research on lymphatic function and disease.Some observed truths have been completely reversed,like the advice around exercise for people affected by lymphedema. Once it was shown that any post-exercise swelling is temporary, and that overall people who exercise have better lymphedema outcomes than those who don't, our advice did a big 180 turn from don’t overlo
