💧 What your lymphatic system actually does, and how to keep it flowing!

Body:
The lymphatic system is one of the most underrated systems in the body, and yet it plays a huge role in how you feel every day.

It’s responsible for moving excess fluid out of your tissues, supporting your immune system, and clearing waste.
But unlike the heart, it has no pump - so it relies on movement and diaphragmatic breath to keep going.

After illness, injury, or even long periods of sitting, it can become sluggish. This can lead to puffiness, fatigue, and more.

In clinic, we often support it with manual lymphatic drainage massage, but there’s also a lot you can do yourself.

🌀 Move
💧 Hydrate
🧘‍♀️ Breathe
🥗 Nourish
👐 Massage

🧹With all this work and so little recognition, no wonder some experts call it The Cinderella System!
📱 If you’d like help supporting your hard working lymph naturally, drop your questions in the comments and let’s chat.

After 35 days, 845km and more beaches than I can count, I reached Santiago on the 15th! 🇪🇸

While it’s super surreal to be finished and I’ve met some incredible people along the way, there’s a relief to having done it and not needing to walk any further! 😅

I look forward to seeing you all at The Massage Lab from the 4th July (2 slots left!) 🙏🏻

6 hours below the knee 👣

Today I am spending 6 hours of intense study of all that lives, breathes and moves below the knee!

This course is about the functional facial connections that make the foot, ankle and leg such important biomechanical players in how the ENTIRE body feels and behaves.

The morning: The Foundations of Back Pain - creating space and resilience in the legs to loosen the entire body.

The afternoon: CORE reflexology - a slower type of reflexology based on CORE facial principles - helping us travel on supple feet, ankles and legs.

I can’t wait to walk away with a fresh spring in my steps🪽 👣 🪽

Huge thanks to my dear teacher and therapeutic bodyworker Noah Karrasch for sharing his life-long teachings with us.

Relax and unwind in the silly season! 🧖‍♀️✨ 🎄

According to massage pathology expert Ruth Werner, getting a massage after your flu vaccine is perfectly safe.🎉

No research was found about massage and the flu shot, however the literature suggests that exercise around the time of vaccination might even boost its effectiveness! 💪

However if you feel unwell after the shot or have had negative reactions in the past, consider rescheduling your appointment, giving 24 hores’ notice.👌🏼

Hi everyone! My name is Lukasz…

I’m an internationally certified therapist with significant experience treating various musculoskeletal conditions. I completed a Bachelor degree in Physiotherapy in Poland and a variety of post-graduate certifications to complement my hands-on skills.

I use advanced soft tissue techniques to deliver deep, effective remedial massage. I mix myofascial and trigger point therapy, which I find effective for muscle tension release. I love to add articulation techniques to enhance the mobility of joints as well as soft tissues.

Expect to feel thoroughly “worked” the day after your treatment, and enjoy noticeable symptom relief 2 days after.

I look forward to helping you move better, move more and enjoy your favourite activities pain-free!
