Manual Lymphatic Drainage Breastfeeding Supports
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a highly effective technique for breastfeeding support. At Pure Pathways, our comprehensive care addresses common breastfeeding issues through innovative, evidence-based practices like MLD. This technique involves gentle skin-stretching strokes over the breasts, directing fluid towards the lymph nodes. By promoting lymphatic circulation, MLD helps remove excess fluid and reduce inflammation associated with clogged ducts and mastitis.
Addressing potential blockages early prevents complications, ensuring uninterrupted breastfeeding. Caring for blockages properly when they do occur leads to swifter healing and maintaining the connect you want to have. Our compassionate therapists provide personalized guidance and support, empowering you to overcome breastfeeding challenges. Trust MLD at Pure Pathways for a fulfilling lactation experience and optimal maternal and infant health.
By integrating occupational therapy and manual lymphatic drainage into breastfeeding care, Pure Pathways offers a comprehensive approach to support new mothers in their feeding journey, promoting optimal well-being and facilitating a smoother transition into motherhood.
Occupational Therapy During Breastfeeding
Prevents & Relieves Clogged Ducts
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) promotes effective lymphatic circulation, helping to clear blockages and reduce the risk of clogged ducts. This ensures smoother milk flow and reduces discomfort during breastfeeding.
Reduces Inflammation & Pain
MLD helps in reducing inflammation and swelling in the breast tissue, alleviating pain associated with conditions like mastitis. This allows for a more comfortable and stress-free breastfeeding experience.
Supports Overall Breast Health
By enhancing lymphatic drainage, MLD helps in maintaining overall breast health, reducing the likelihood of recurrent issues, and promoting sustained, uninterrupted breastfeeding. This contributes to better maternal and infant well-being.
Education & Continued Care
At-home support includes education on self-MLD, empowering mothers to perform between sessions, reducing symptoms of clogged ducts, engorgement, and promoting continuous breast health.
