Lymph is an internal system that helps clean up the body from toxins, dead cells, proteins and other stagnant fluids accumulated around cells and transports it back into the general circulation One’s toxic burden in increased with an inefficient lymphatic system. Contributors are a lack of exercise, poor diet, pollutants, surgery, lymph node removal, trauma, and pregnancy. Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is a gentle way of stimulating the flow of lymph in our bodies. Unlike the heart, lymph doesn’t have a pump, but relies on muscular action and body movement to keep the fluid moving. Lymphatic massage therapy can help the lymph system do its job better by using light hand pressure in rhythmic circular movements to move the lymph fluids back to the heart. Lymphatic Drainage Therapy can also be accomplished through use of specific devices, trampoline, dry brushing, supplements, saunas, homeopathic remedies and clothing.
