"Hello everyone! ๐ Today, weโre taking you on a journey to discover the magic of Lymphatic Drainage Massage! โจ Let's get that flow going!"
๐โโ๏ธ Lymphatic Drainage Massage.
โsimply referred to as "manual lymph drainage," is a specialized type of gentle massage.
โ
What is it?โฆ.
It is a technique developed to encourage the movement of lymph fluids around the body. The lymph system is a vital part of the immune system and helps the body filter waste, toxins, and excess fluid.
โHow does it work?โฆ
โUnlike traditional massage, which focuses on deep muscle tissue, LDM uses a very light pressure and long, rhythmic, and gentle strokes. The pressure is just enough to stretch the skin, which is believed to stimulate the contractions of the lymphatic vessels.
โThese specific movements help to:
โข โMove fluid: Direct lymph fluid from swollen areas (edema) towards lymph nodes, where waste material can be filtered out.
โข โSpeed up healing: Often recommended after surgery or injury to reduce swelling and bruising.
โข โSupport the immune system: By ensuring the lymph system is working efficiently.
