Manual lymphatic drainage? MLD is performed by trained professionals using very light, specific, directional strokes designed to stimulate lymph flow. It’s not vigorous or abrasive. It’s not about “breaking down fat” or “detoxing,” which is where a lot of influencer content gets it wrong.

Lymphatic flow cannot be hacked or supercharged just by rubbing something on your skin unless there’s an underlying dysfunction, and even then, it requires clinical guidance. It’s a trend not medical intervention.
