Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is an advanced therapy that assists with the overall health and functioning of the lymphatic system. This therapy helps to encourage and stimulate the body’s natural process of the lymphatic system which plays an important role in our body’s immune response and overall fluid balance. By performing gentle rhythmic techniques with the correct stimulation of Lymph Nodes, Lymphatic Drainage encourages the healthy flow of lymphatic fluid to regulate tissue pressure, eliminate excess fluid and waste products to support optimum health.
Manual lymphatic drainage is beneficial for the overall health of the body as it also assists to activate our parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest), relaxing the vessels and resulting in a calming effect for the entire body. The benefits of Manual Lymphatic Drainage include general wellbeing, improved lymphatic circulation, stimulates the functions of vital organs and assists to eliminate cellular waste, and stimulate the parasympathetic relaxation response.
