Provides a deeply relaxing effect on the nervous system
MLD advanced massage techniques stimulate the touch receptors that lie underneath the surface of the skin, which in turn allows the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) to come to the fore. The PNS is the "rest and restore" system that takes over from the daytime "fight or flight" sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Unfortunately, in our often highly pressured and stressed environments, our sympathetic nervous systems become more dominant and it becomes harder to relax and access the PNS. MLD assists in helping to body cope with dealing with both long and short-standing stress patterns.
