Lymphatic Treatment
Encourages the Movement of Lymph Fluids Around the Body
Manual lymphatic drainage, another name for lymphatic drainage massage, reduces swelling brought on by illnesses or medical procedures that obstruct your lymphatic system. A lymphatic drainage massage gently manipulates specific body parts to encourage lymph to flow to an area with functioning lymph veins.
What is lymphatic drainage?
Improve the Flow of Lymph Fluid
The lymphatic system plays a key role in the body’s immune defenses. The goal of lymphatic massage is to increase lymph fluid movement, which should lessen swelling.
Lymphatic fluid flows through lymph vessels, which connect lymph nodes. As it passes through the lymph nodes, white blood cells trap and destroy harmful particles, such as bacteria.
Like blood in the circulatory system, lymphatic fluid is always moving. If it stops, swelling can occur, as lymph fluid builds up, often in the arms or legs. Health experts call this lymphedema.
By massaging a location that is not swollen, you can create space for fluid to move from clogged places to those areas.
