Intrinsic pumping can be up and down regulated by the endothelial cell signalling in response to shear Movements outside the lymphangion can also increase lymph-motoricity by transmitting stretch and shear directing the growth of new lymph vessels (lymph angiogenesis), and shear forces created by the internal The two directional nature of each movement transfers stretch and shear forces into the tissues which Taking into account the significance of gentle shear forces in tissue healing, the mechanisms by which

Shearing forces also affect the thixotropic state of the ground substance, releasing free water molecules The shearing forces applied during MLD increase lymphatic pumping, increasing lymph formation and the

The endothelial cells that line all lymph vessels are sensitive to stretch and shear forces and these understanding is that the very precise movements of the skin stimulate lymph-motoricity via application of shearing The stretching and shearing forces applied to the lymph collectors have been shown to initiate stretch

Stress, shear and compression forces can have beneficial or detrimental effects on scar formation depending and Elastic Taping Therapies at each stage of healing, will align with the optimal ranges of stress, shear

The shearing forces applied around the initial lymph vessels, without enough pressure to compress them Sympatholysis also dilates the lymph collectors increasing their capacity, while the shearing forces Watch this space as we begin to hear reports on MLD in COVID-recovery. 10: MLD restores homeostasis The

Shear-stress activated mechanisms are responsible for formation and maintenance of the valves and the Read more posts on the importance of gentle shear forces including in tissue repair.

The precise shearing forces applied during application of the Dr Vodder method stimulate stretch-receptor-reflex

We can now link the very precise stretch and shear forces created by the original Dr Vodder method to

The shearing forces and repetition of the Vodder techniques also add energy to the ground substance changing

has never failed to amaze me how the Vodder’s developed their precise technique for applying optimal shearing

technique is characterised by a very light technique performed with a slow rhythm creating specific shearing

progresses MLD techniques in the affected area are also adapted, becoming firmer and applying greater shearing
