Manual Lymph Drainage and Breastfeeding?

[MountainAsh]

Hi Mommas!  Have any of you ever received manual lymph drainage for breast feeding support/issues?  It is a VERY gentle form of massage aimed at helping move excess fluid from the tissues.  I'm just wondering if it has been used on the breast tissue...

I've not heard of this specifically but it seems similar to the advice given when you have mastitis or engorgement.
