Rehydration is Key after Lymphatic Drainage treatment!

* A lymphatic drainage massage is designed to stimulate the flow of lymph throughout your body. The lymph carries waste products, toxins, and excess proteins away from your tissues to be filtered and eliminated.

* This process makes your kidneys work harder to filter toxins out leading to increased urination, which flushes out not only toxins but also water and electrolytes (like sodium, potassium, and magnesium).

* Adding Electrolytes to your water is an excellent way to optimize hydration, support body’s detoxification process, and minimize any potential negative side effects after Lymphatic Drainage treatment.

* The Benefits include:

· Prevents “Die-Off” Symptoms: As toxins are released quickly and the body struggles to process the sudden influx of waste, you might experience mild, flu-like symptoms such as headache, fatigue, or nausea. Proper hydration with electrolytes can significantly reduce the intensity of these symptoms.

· Electrolytes, especially sodium, help your body absorb and retain water more effectively than water alone. They facilitate the movement of water into your cells, ensuring you are hydrating at a cellular level.

· Reduces Post-treatment fatigue: electrolytes can help you feel refreshed and energized rather than drained after the Lymphatic Drainage treatment

* Best sources of Electrolytes:


* Coconut water (a natural source of potassium, but can be higher in natural sugars).

* A simple pinch of Himalayan salt or sea salt in your water can also provide sodium and other trace minerals.

* Sugar-free electrolyte concentrate, powders, tablets that you mix with water. I would recommend E-lyte from BodyBio, Dr.Vegan Hydrate+ and Elete Electrolyte.

* Text Electrolytes in the comments and I’ll message you the 10% discount code to order from Natural Dispensary *

Optimise cosmetic surgery recovery by adding Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) to your regular Lymphatic Drainage & Deep Oscillation treatments.

Previously known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), PBMT uses non-thermal, non-invasive light to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes at a cellular level.

Significantly reduces swelling & bruising
Accelerates wound healing
Reduces pain and discomfort
Improves scar appearance
Shortens healing downtime

PBMT is versatile and can be used after a wide range of procedures, including:

· Facelifts, Neck Lifts, and Blepharoplasty: To drastically reduce bruising and swelling.
· Rhinoplasty: To manage swelling, which is a major concern for seeing the final result.
· Breast Augmentation, Reduction, or Lift: To manage pain and swelling.
· Liposuction and Tummy Tucks: To reduce swelling, improve skin retraction, and help with discomfort.
· Laser Resurfacing: To accelerate re-epithelialization (skin re-growth) and reduce redness.

Scientists have rediscovered the “meningeal lymphatic system,” a network of waste-draining vessels in the brain. Its dysfunction is linked to Alzheimer’s progression, while improving its function boosts cognition, memory and mood

Known as therapy for ageing, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) shows promise for much more:

· Brain Health: Boosts cognitive function and clears Alzheimer’s-related proteins
· Pain & Inflammation: Eases arthritis pain and joint stiffness by reducing local inflammation.
· Recovery: Aids rehabilitation from stroke and brain injury by helping to clear toxic waste.
· Lung Health: Improves breathing for long-COVID and COPD patients.
· Mental Health & Sleep: Reports show improvements in mood, appetite, and sleep quality.

The very precise and specific movements of Dr Vodder’s MLD therapy have been shown to increase lymph flow, reduce systemic inflammation, modulate both acute and chronic pain, and it is a non-drug option to support treatments for Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other chronic conditions. *

Lipedema is more than just “hard-to-lose fat.” It’s a chronic disorder with a strong genetic component that primarily affects women.

While genetic testing is not yet a standard diagnostic tool, research is rapidly evolving to understand how specific gene polymorphisms (like PPARG, Leptin, and Estrogen Receptor genes) play a significant role in lipedema’s development. Identifying risk factors could:

• Improve Early Detection in families with a history.

• Guide Personalized Therapies for metabolic, hormonal, or inflammatory pathways.

• Help Differentiate lipedema from obesity or lymphedema.

Key Genes:

PPARG Regulates fat storage and adipogenesis. Variants here may influence the unique fat distribution and inflammation seen in lipedema.

LEP / LEPR (Leptin) Governs hunger and metabolic function. Polymorphisms may contribute to metabolic dysfunction and adipose tissue expansion.

ESR1, ESR2 & CYP19A1 (Aromatase) Linked to fat distribution, inflammation, and local estrogen production in fat tissue. This may explain why lipedema predominantly affects women.

Your genetic blueprint is unique. Your treatment should be too.

Understanding the underlying factors is the first step toward a personalized management plan.

DO YOU KNOW that the combination of Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD)& Deep Oscilation treatment with GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic or Mounjaro offers synergistic benefits for weight management, inflammation reduction, and metabolic health

- Reduced inflammation: MLD & Deep Oscillation promotes lymph fluid circulation, flushing out inflammatory cytokines and cellular debris thus amplifying the anti-inflammatory effects of GLP-1 drugs, potentially easing pain and swelling in adipose tissue.

- Sagging skin prevention: GLP-1 medications cause weight loss, while MLD & Deep Oscillation promotes collagen synthesis and supports skin elasticity.

- Improves Metabolic Waste and Toxin Clearance: Rapid fat breakdown from GLP-1 drugs releases metabolic byproducts potentially overwhelming the lymphatic system, and causing tiredness and sluggishness. MLD & Deep Oscillation supports detoxification by stimulating lymph flow and aiding toxin elimination

- Improved Weight Loss Efficacy: While GLP-1 drugs suppress appetite and improve insulin sensitivity, MLD & Deep Oscillation reduces fluid retention, leading to temporary weight loss


While Ozempic/Mounjaro target metabolic dysfunction, adding MLD & Deep Oscillation treatments may optimise fluid balance, reduce inflammation, and support detoxification, particularly in obesity-related swelling or lipedema. *

MENOPAUSAL WEIGHT GAIN:
*
*
Deep Oscillation Lymphatic Drainage is effective tool to add to menopause management plan to address fluid retention, inflammation, and metabolic slowdowns associated with hormonal changes and weight gain.

Menopause Affects the Lymphatic System:
- Hormonal Shifts: declining estrogen disrupts fluid balance and reduces lymphatic vessel contraction strength, impairing toxin removal and increasing fluid retention.

- Estrogen Dominance: low progesterone relative to estrogen (“estrogen dominance”) hinders lymph flow, as lymph fluid attracts progesterone more easily. This imbalance exacerbates bloating and swellings.

Deep Oscillation Lymphatic Drainage:

- Reduces Water Retention: moves stagnant fluid from tissues, decreasing bloating in the abdomen, legs, and face.
- Enhances Detoxification: stimulates lymph flow to remove toxins and excess proteins, reducing inflammation that triggers fat storage.
- Indirect Fat Metabolism Support: by improving liver function, lymphatic drainage aids metabolic efficiency and hormone processing .

Beyond fluid reduction, Deep Oscillation Lymphatic Drainage addresses other symptoms of menopause:
- Hormonal Symptom Relief: Reduces hot flashes, joint pain, and fatigue by lowering cortisol and inflammatory markers .
- Improved Sleep & Stress: Activates the parasympathetic nervous system (“rest and digest”), enhancing sleep quality and reducing stress-related cravings .
- Skin and Gut Health: Boosts circulation for healthier skin and reduces abdominal bloating via improved digestion.

IVF journey *
*
*
If you’re trying to conceive, you’ve likely been told countless times to ‘just relax and it’ll happen. However, the ability to relax wanes after months roll by and still no baby. And if you see IVF as the only chance to become a parent, preparation process for the IVF procedure can make you feel even more stressful, and so out of control.

The ways that acupuncture can compliment and enhance IVF outcomes is vast; decreasing blood flow impedance and increasing the uterine blood flow, inhibiting uterine motility, reducing anxiety and stress, and modulating the immune factors especially NK cells and cytokines - it is just few to mention. When you make good treatment plan with your IVF team and acupuncturist, successful implantation occurs and healthy pregnancy develops.

That’s what my clients say ⬆️*
