Lymphatic drainage is a therapeutic technique designed to promote the movement of lymph fluid through the lymphatic system. It involves gentle, rhythmic massage or manipulation of the skin and underlying tissues to encourage the flow of lymph fluid towards lymph nodes, where it can be filtered and cleared of toxins, waste products, and pathogens. Lymphatic drainage can help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and support immune function. It can be used as part of the treatment for conditions like lymphoedema, post-surgical swelling, and certain inflammatory disorders.
The lymphatic system is a network of vessels, nodes, and organs that work together to transport lymph, a clear fluid containing white blood cells, throughout the body. Its main functions include removing excess fluid, toxins, and waste from tissues, filtering lymph through lymph nodes to remove pathogens and foreign particles, and transporting immune cells to areas of infection or inflammation to help fight off infections and diseases. Major components of the lymphatic system include lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, the spleen, thymus, and tonsils.
When the lymphatic system is compromised it can have a significant impact on the body's ability to maintain fluid balance, fight infections, and remove waste, resulting in various health complications. It can leave you feeling lethargic, sluggish and run down. It may also contribute to headaches, sinus issues, digestive problems such as constipation.
