Lymphatic Drainage Massage - what is it?
Lymphatic
drainage massage is a therapeutic massage treatment that uses very
light pressure and long, gentle, rhythmic strokes to increase lymphatic
flow and assist your body to rid itself of toxins.
Lymph
is a clear, slightly yellow fluid that flows around your body, carrying
white blood cells and antibodies to your tissues and organs.
These are essential to your immune system and help you fight infection.
How does it
work?
Lymphatic drainage massage boosts the flow of lymph around your
body, refreshing your immune system and helping to flush out toxins.
Because
lymph is so key to keeping your immune system working properly,
improving its flow and drainage around the body may be beneficial.
As
with all complementary therapies, we recommend you seek the advice of
your GP or regular medical practitioner before committing yourself to
significant treatments, especially those that are physically invasive.
