Manual Lymph Drainage

The proper functioning of the lymphatic system is critical to our body's ability to operate at peak performance. This system drains fluids, detoxifies tissues, filters out toxins and foreign substances and helps us maintain a healthy immune system. Stagnated lymph circulation causes toxins to accumulate and compromises cellular functioning, which opens the way to physical ailments. Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) is a highly efficient approach to working with the lymphatic and other fluid systems.  The practitioner is manually attuned to the specific rhythm, pressure, quality and direction of the lymph flow by using a combination of precise anatomical science and distinct manual techniques. Techniques are performed with hands and fingers simulating gentle, wave-like movements that activate lymph and interstitial fluid circulation as well as stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems.
