LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE

WHAT IS THE LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE?

The Lymphatic Drainage Massage is the perfect detoxifying treatment to add to your monthly routine or to prepare yourself before or after a surgical procedure. Your lymphatic system is a complex network of vessels and nodes throughout your body. These nodes filter debris to clean your lymph fluid before it returns to your circulatory system. The Lymphatic Drainage Massage uses a technique that gently assists your lymphatic system through a series of gliding, stretching, and light motions over your body. It is a very light massage, and the technique helps get rid of toxins and leave you feeling stress-free. 

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS MASSAGE

Your massage therapist will employ the gentle techniques of lymphatic drainage in your treatment, using gliding, stretching, and light motions over your body to assist your lymphatic system. Lymph drainage therapy is peaceful and meditative to receive. You may feel gentle pulling or pulse during your treatment. Afterward, it is common to feel lighter, refreshed, and quite thirsty. Drinking plenty of water before and after your session is highly recommended for optimal detoxification results.
