you must not have done much of a search, I just typed in "mastectomy massage" into my yahoo search & up popped these 2 pages, as well as a bunch of others.
** as for MLD, that is a very specific technique as you may or may not know... my sister in law gets it done, her therapist trained in Europe to learn it...
I would guess that a lot of mastectomy patients would get lymphatic swelling, one of my patients gets it in her arm & I referred her to the same person for MLD treatment.
I would also talk about the importance of lymphatics in post mastectomy massage.

i would look up things for lymphatic (helps lymph system) or myofascial massage (stretching, helps with scar tissue). good luck!
