Your lymphatic system is designed to fight infection and rid your body of any foreign substances. Sometimes it gets overwhelmed when we are exposed to illness, sinus infections, are injured, immobile, or simply stuck in a stressful and unbalanced lifestyle.
Giving your lymphatic system a boost can help you detoxify your body, reduce swelling and bloating, relieve sinus pressure, and reenergize you. It is excellent when dieting, getting over an illness, injury, before and after surgery, and when dealing with chronic sinus infections. It is also an excellent accompaniment to a spring/fall detox. It can also help those with migraines, Lyme's Disease, autoimmune conditions like lupus, arthritis, chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia reduce the severity, duration and frequency of flare-ups. Often there is localized swelling after an injury or surgery. Lymphatic drainage can help speed up recovery as well as help the body prepare for the surgery. It is also used after various cosmetic surgical procedures to ensure the best possible results.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage technique is very light and rhythmic. It is specially developed to primarily move lymphatic fluid, but it also neurologically aids in stress reduction. It is performed directly on the skin with no oils or lotion. The experience is very soothing and relaxing. Many clients report feeling lighter, clearer and have more energy after receiving regular lymphatic treatment.
