LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE

Lymphatic Drainage

Within us all, there is a silent system working to keep us healthy - the Lymph system.  The lymphatic system forms your immune response, helping to deal with infection, aches, pains, colds and flu's whilst cleansing your tissues, maintaining a balance of fluids in your body.

Without it, our bodies would swell up like balloons and waste products would accumulate in the tissues around our skin, fat, muscle and bone.

If for any reason your lymphatic system is not working effectively, such as in clients with breast cancer and suppressed immune systems, fluid retention and swelling occurs, known as Lymphoedema.  Lymphoedema can be painful and restrict movement.  

Lymphatic drainage massage is a profound technique that helps increase lymph flow and removes swelling and harmful substances from the body’s tissues. Increased lymph flow stimulates the immune system and thus its function.
