Is this an acceptable substitute for mld?

    barb, some women here have said it helps them. It's not MLD, but it's certainly gentle, and if you did it in the order and direction of your MLD routine there's no reason to think it would hurt anything. If you're interested you might try it and see how it works for YOU, since we're all so different. I sometimes use the Lebed opening exercises in place of daily MLD, and it actually seems to be more effective than my inconsistent efforts at self-MLD, so I think there's a trial-and-error aspect to all this.


    If you give it a try, do let us know what you discover!
