LYMPH FLUID AND LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
THE LOWDOWN
The lymphatic system plays a key role in our immune system. It helps the body to get rid of excess fluid in tissues, and transports water, proteins, fats and toxins to the lymph nodes. Once this "waste" has been processed and cleaned, the lymphatic fluid goes back into the venous system.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a manual massage technique that aims to stimulate the flow of lymph and remove waste products and toxins from tissues through soft and gentle pumping movements.
THE BENEFITS OF LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
Relieves heavy legs and swelling: Manual Lymphatic Drainage relieves feelings of heaviness in the legs by improving both blood and lymphatic circulation. This therapy is particularly recommended for anyone suffering from Oedema or Lymphoedema, and in the case of postoperative Oedema, to eliminate excess lymph fluid.
Helps to sculpt the figure: A Manual Lymphatic Drainage treatment works to detoxify the entire body. Regular lymphatic drainage sessions can help to reduce cellulite, prevent water retention, improve skin tone, and relieve congestion in swollen legs.
