Lymphatic drainage
Lymphatic drainage is a delicate form of massage that stimulates the body’s lymphatic system, improving the metabolism, helping the body to eliminate waste and toxins, transporting nutrients to cells and providing a boost to the immune system.
Lymphatic drainage is especially useful for individuals who seem to suffer regularly from common illnesses like colds and flu. It is also recommended for people who lead sedentary lifestyles, or those who want to reduce puffiness or swelling. It has a positive effect on cellulite, dysfunctional respiratory systems, fatigue and it is an important part of lymph oedema treatment.
This treatment is highly recommended for anyone who has recently had a ‘tummy tuck’, ‘liposuction’ or ‘Brazilian Butt Lift’. Consultants recommend a course of Lymphatic Drainage Massage for 4 to 12 weeks after treatment. It is believed to decrease recovery time and improve results, by reducing post-surgical swelling and fibrosis (scar tissue formation).
