Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage treatment is a therapeutic massage that focuses on your lymphatic system, the part of our immune system that is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. With performing the Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage technique, this helps kickstart that Lymphatic System (which is usually blocked) and helps to reactivate the system.
This is done by performing a gentle, rhythmic massage that is designed to stimulate your lymphatic system, this, will help reduce fluid retention, and aids in supporting your body’s natural detox process. This treatment is ideal for post-surgery recovery, bloating, puffiness or if you are just simply wanting a relaxing treatment or one to help push and activate these lymp nodes to wake up and work more efficiently.
So, If you suffer from:
