Why is our lymphatic system so important?
Our Lymphatic System is responsible for helping us move excess waste through our body. It helps boost immunity and reduce inflammation and bloating in the body.
Many times it's described as a "subsystem" of the circulatory system, the lymphatic system runs somewhat parallel to blood vessels and supports immunity. Our lymphatic system is made up of a huge network of vessels and nodes, the fluid in our lymphatics is called lymph (colourless fluid). This fluid is a mix of water, fats, salts, glucose, proteins, and white blood cells, also known as the infection fighting squad. IT'S SO IMPORTANT and its main function is to eliminate toxins, pathogens, and the waste from the body. Did you when you get a blister and you are told not to pop it but you do it anyway? The clear liquid that oozes out is lymph. You can learn more here.
Can lymphatic drainage help me lose weight?
Lymphatic drainage massage helps to reduce excess fluid and eliminate toxins from the body. It has other health benefits such as improving cellulite appearance, promoting circulation and it's a great complement to aesthetics treatment such as lipo cavitation and radio frequency. However, when lymphatic drainage massage is associated with diet, exercise and perhaps other aesthetics techniques, it can promote loss of weight.
What should I wear to my massage?
If you’re comfortable to do so, wear smaller underwear as this ensures the massage to the buttocks is best performed. Loose and comfortable clothing makes for an easy transition after your massage.
How can I best prepare for my massage?
Drink water. Many of you will say if I have water before my session I will want to go to the toilet in the middle of it. Go to the bathroom just before your session starts and have a bit of water (half glass) prior to your session. Unlike what many people may think drinking water prior to your treatment session is very important. It will facilitate and encourage the lymphatic system to push more fluid out than if you had not had any. This will help you to detoxify easier during the massage. Ideally, try not to have a meal an hour prior to your massage but if you need to eat, have a light meal. Also, remove piercings where possible from areas that will be massaged.
Can everyone have lymphatic drainage massage?
No, there are some contraindications that must be taken seriously. It is important that clients complete their client intake form with all health information to see if lymphatic drainage is suitable for them.
With that said, lymphatic drainage massage is suitable for most people including those who have lack/poor sleep, dehydration, stress, emotional trauma, infections, lack of movement and people suffering from extreme fatigue, swelling and fluid retention .
Lymphatic drainage is also helpful for people who have been through plastic surgery such as breast surgery, liposuction, BBL and childbirth with their doctor’s approval.
