Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a light, rhythmic, slow technique designed to stimulate the lymphatic system.

The lymphatic system removes toxins and excess fluid from the body. Unlike the circulatory system the lymphatic system does not have a primary means of circulation like the heart, and therefore relies solely on body movement and muscle contraction to operate.

Waste fluid, produced by the body is collected from our tissues via a network of vessels that feed into around 600 lymph nodes found around the body. The lymph nodes filter the toxins & waste from the lymph fluid before returning it back into the blood stream via the heart. The lymph vessels sit very close to the surface of the skin, above the muscles. A gentle light touch is required to move the lymph systematically through the body; deep pressure can collapse the vessels and have the opposite effect.

Stagnated or sluggish lymph vessels can result in stubborn & persistent puffiness that remains even when diet and exercise are maximised.

Lymphatic Drainage techniques improve overall wellness and a general lighter feeling from within:

  • Flush out the body’s natural waste toxins & excess fluids

  • Reduce swelling & inflammation

  • Boost immunity & circulation

  • Enhance skin glow & cellulite reduction

  • Speed up & enhance post surgery recovery (Breast enhancement, BBL, Lipo360, Abdominoplasty, Mummy Makeover)
