Relieve Swelling, Stiffness, & Pain
Every day, you endure stress, injuries, illness, and possibly medical procedures that negatively impacts your body and its ability to heal.
Our lymphatic system is filled with lymphatic fluid. This fluid is a watery, protein rich fluid filled with white blood cells that protect our bodies from viruses and bacteria and eliminates waste to keep us healthy. This fluid picks up these pathogens, the lymphatic vessels then carry this fluid to our lymph nodes where the pathogen is destroyed and eliminated from the body.
Manual Lymph Therapy is a noninvasive form of medical bodywork that relieves swelling, pain, and stiffness after a surgery or illness. This form of bodywork can also be used to maintain a healthy lymphatic system. Your lymphatic system plays an important role in supporting a healthy immune system by removing waste from your body, protecting you from infection, and maintaining fluid balance.
When the lymph flow is disrupted or slowed due to recent surgery, injury, or illness, the fluid gets stuck and builds up in the body’s tissues. This can lead to swelling, pain, and stiffness.
Using gentle slow rhythmic motions, Manual Lymph Drainage helps clear built-up lymph and restores the normal flow of the fluid to relieve lymphedema symptoms.
Manual Lymph Drainage Massage is a safe and effective way to improve the flow of lymph fluid through the body. While reducing lymphedema (swelling) is the primary benefit this medical massage technique offers, it may provide other benefits to your overall health and well-being.
Below are diagnosis that should avoid Manual Lymph Drainage unless prescribed by a physician.
Please consult your physician before beginning any treatment.
