In 2010 was the first time that I learned manual lymphatic drainage in the massage school and I fell in love with this technique, Dr Vodder strokes and our Lymphatic System.
I remember, I couldn't find any information online and anyone talk about it.

I was intrigued how doctors in USA don't recommend MLD to patients before and after surgeries .
I watched a video from an Oncologist who said that in American Medicine Universities ,doctors learn a little about our Lymphatic System.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage isn't a massage. To be simple, it is a technique to increase the lymph flow and drainage the excess of fluid of the body.
It is a lot of study about our Lymphatic System.
I explain the basic to my clients because I want they understand what I am doing .

To healthy bodies or affected bodies by surgeries, cancer, trauma or lymphedema.

The Quadratus Lumborum (QL) is a deep stabilizer muscle in the back, between the 12th rib and the iliac crest with insertions on L1-L5.

When this muscle is tight , it can causes irradiate pain on the buttock, pelvic and groin area, leg discrepancy , difficulty to breathe deep and sometimes spasms.

What causes these symptoms ?

Scoliosis is when the spine has abnormal curves.
Children, teenagers and adults can be scoliosis .
There are 3 tips of scoliosis :
*Idiopathic
*Congenital
*Neuromuscular

Some symptoms:
-visible difference on the shoulder blades
-ribs protrude more at one side
-one hip is higher than the other ,causing one leg to be shorter
-waist isn't even

The curvature can be a "C" or "S" shape, but the last one is more common.
Kids or teenagers can wear a brace to stop the scoliosis getting worse. Sometimes surgery is necessary.

A Chiropractic and a Massage Therapist are professionals that can help immensely patients with scoliosis.

* When people were born with a SHORTER LEG LENGTH or this condition happens for trauma, nerve injury, bone loss, etc , the body will try to adjust to walk and stand and this situation can cause scoliosis.

Today I visited the Guajataca. I am impressed with the statue La Cara del Indio in Isabela.
