Lymph drainage therapy is a specialized manual technique designed to attain and sustain peak performance of the lymphatic system. Lymphatic fluid is gently and rhythmically moved through the body, reducing swelling, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system.
Used as both a preventative and remedial technique, there are numerous conditions that manual lymphatic drainage can help treat. Some of its effect include detoxification of the body, faster recovery from injury, regeneration of tissues, reductions of inflammation and discomfort, relief of chronic pain, deep relaxation and stress reduction, antispastic actions to relieve muscle hypertonis, and strengthened resistance to illness.
