lymphatic drainage
Cleaning of the system
Manual lymphatic drainage is a very gentle form of massage that helps the body detoxify and provides relaxation and well-being through gentle movements.
Our lymphatic system, in simple terms, is our 'garbage disposal'. Everything our body no longer needs, or needs in another part of the body, is transported through the lymphatic system.
This lymphatic system is a network of vessels that begins in the tissue between the blood vessels and the cells. It runs through our entire body in almost infinitely branching channels and eventually empties into the bloodstream just before reaching the heart. In this system flows the lymph fluid, which carries away waste products that are eventually filtered out by the kidneys.
Our lymphatic system is responsible for detoxifying and cleansing our body and regulating the fluid balance. In addition, the lymphatic system plays a major role in our immune defense.
