Lymphatic Drainage
Increase the flow of lymph and reduce toxins in your body
Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a specialist type of skin massage technique that promotes lymph to drain out of a limb into an area of the body that drains normally.
Lymph is the fluid that flows through the lymphatic system and surrounds all tissues. It flows through lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes and is part of the immune system, that is responsible for removing foreign microbes to lymph nodes and returning proteins to the blood.
Lymph flows in only one direction as opposed to blood which flows around the body in a loop due to the pumping mechanism of the heart. Lymph flow is controlled by valves and the force is generated by activation of surrounding muscles.
In addition to improving lymphatic circulation, Manual Lymphatic Drainage also increases blood flow in deep and superficial veins.
