(Mod 5B) Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage

Course Overview

The safe, effective, and remarkably easy Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage (VMLD) technique is one that supports the lymphatic system from a unique perspective. The lymphatic system is an integral part of the immune system, but its reach extends far beyond immunity, influencing everything from organ function to hormonal levels, energy flow and energy levels to heart and circulatory health, and emotional balance. The VMLD technique provides a powerful way of supporting lymphatic health as a standalone modality or within the context of a BodyTalk session.

The Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage is a distinctive approach to working with congested and stagnant interstitial fluid. By restoring movement and balancing pressure differentials throughout the body, VMLD encourages the movement of accumulated fluid, pathogens, cellular waste, toxins, and even emotions into the lymphatic system to support detoxification, purification, and optimal health.

This invaluable addition to any healthcare practice can be performed on or off the body and has even proved very effective when used remotely.


Course Outline

• The Lymphatic System: This course expands upon the knowledge of the lymphatic system from both a Western and Eastern perspective. An understanding of this integral component of immune health and wellness allows the practitioner to educate the client on the importance and significance of a healthy lymphatic system and how dis-ease in this system can manifest as numerous physical, mental, and emotional symptoms.

• The Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage: VMLD is a highly effective approach to lymphatic drainage that produces powerful physical and emotional shifts. It is based on a unique “kinesthetic visualization” technique that defies the traditional Western understanding of how the lymphatic system works and employs tools that balance and support the easy movement of interstitial fluid. The course includes the presentation of theory and application, demonstrations, and practice of the techniques under the instructor’s supervision.
