Lymphatic drainage massage
Lymphatic drainage massage has a wide range of benefits, as it helps stimulate the lymphatic system to support detoxification, reduce fluid retention, and improve circulation. Here are some key benefits:
Reduces Swelling and Water Retention: Especially helpful for pregnant individuals or those who sit for long periods, lymphatic drainage massage helps to reduce fluid buildup in the body.
Please note only suitable after 13 weeks and before 38 weeks
Contraindications: Thrombosis, Acute Congestive Heart Failure, Acute Renal Failure, Active Blood Clots, any active bleeding or non healed wounds.
Boosts Immune System: By stimulating the lymphatic system, this massage can aid in flushing out toxins, which strengthens the body's natural defenses.
Improves Circulation: Gentle, rhythmic movements increase blood flow and help carry oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, enhancing skin health and overall vitality.
Eases Tension and Aches: The gentle pressure can relieve minor aches, particularly in areas prone to tightness, like the neck, shoulders, and lower limbs.
Promotes Relaxation and Reduces Stress: The calming nature of lymphatic massage soothes the nervous system, which can reduce stress and promote better sleep.
Supports Healing and Recovery: Often used post-surgery or for those with conditions like lymphedema, lymphatic drainage can help speed up recovery by reducing swelling and inflammation.
This gentle, supportive therapy encourages overall wellness by promoting the body’s natural detoxification and fluid-balancing processes.
