Reflexology lymphatic drainage (RLD)

Sally Kay, FFHT, was awarded an FHT Excellence in Practice Award for the
research and development of reflexology lymphatic drainage (RLD), to help with the
management of secondary lymphoedema following breast cancer treatment.

Reflexology lymphatic drainage

 

RLD is a reflexology technique that

isolates and systematically stimulates the

lymphatic reflexes of the feet, using a

problem-specific sequence. The treatment is

adapted according to the site of secondary

lymphoedema, focusing on the reflexes to

encourage the excess lymph away from

the damaged area towards the nearest

uncompromised lymphatic drainage area.

RLD can also be used when treating clients

with other conditions.
