Manual lymphatic drainage during pregnancy
Many expectant mothers are familiar with the issue: by the end of the day, their legs feel heavy, and their ankles noticeably swell. During pregnancy, the growing baby compresses the blood and lymph vessels in the pelvic area, which slows down the drainage of tissue fluid.
