Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage
What is it?
Lymphatic drainage massage is a special type of massage designed to stimulate your lymphatic system. It involves gently manipulating specific areas of your body to help lymph move to lymph vessels.
The lymphatic system is similar to the circuatory system, but unlike the the circulatory system, it does not get pumped by a specific organ. Instead, it relies on the movement of muscles and joints to move lymph (the fluid within the ymphatic system, similar to plasma).
The lymphatic system regulated the immune system and is responsible for helping fluid and waste products leave the body. When this system becomes blocked, the fluid builds up and stagnates which can cause the entire system to become toxic, resulting in feeling sluggish and being more likely to contract viral or contagious diseases.
Benefits
Lymphatic drainage has a detoxifying effect on the body as a whole as it helps to remove metabolic waste and excess fluid build-up, but here are a few more examples of how lymphatic drainage may benefit you:
Lymphoedema - lymph production and drainage is improved, removing excess fluid
Acne - waste product is removed, inflammation reduced and and the connective tissue below the skin is stimulated
Scars - imporoves healing in scars by helping to regenerate tissue
Rosacea and facial erythema - broken capillaries are less obvious and inflamation is reduced
Skin - the elasticity of the skin is improved
Chronic eczema - the effects of chronic eczema are reduced by stimulating healing and tissue regeneration
Cellulite - metabolic waste and excess fluid is removed from the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of cellulite
Swollen ankles - increased lymph production and drainage removed excess fluid which helps to reduce swollen ankles
Allergies - histamine production can be reduced by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system, helping to alleviate allergies
Migraines - helps to alleviate migraines by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system (encouraging you to feel more relaxed)
Premenstrual - the parasympathetic nerves are stimulated, lymph production and drainage is improved and connective tissue is stimulated, resulting in feelings of relaxation, improved skin condition and reduced cramping
Lipoedema - fluid build-up is reduced and pain and discomfort is alleviated when combined with other treatments such as compression garments/bandaging.
What to Expect
Your lymphatic drainage massage appointment will last 90 minutes. During this time, you will receive a thorough consultation before receiving a full body treatment. Once the treatment is complete, you will be given time to drink a glass of water and relax before leaving.
