Lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle, rhythmic massage aimed at encouraging the natural circulation of lymph through the body. The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in our immune system by helping to remove waste products, toxins, and other unwanted materials. When this system is sluggish or blocked, it can lead to issues such as swelling, fatigue, and a weakened immune response.
The massage involves light, rhythmic strokes, often following the direction of lymph flow, to help clear blockages and improve the system’s efficiency. It is particularly beneficial for those recovering from surgery, individuals with lymphoedema, or anyone looking to boost their immune system naturally.
