Lymphatic massages are often used for several reasons:
1. **Edema Reduction:** They can help reduce swelling or edema in the body by promoting the drainage of excess lymphatic fluid.
2. **Immune System Support:** Lymphatic massages can stimulate the lymphatic system, which plays a crucial role in immune function, helping the body fight infections.
3. **Detoxification:** Some proponents claim that lymphatic massages can aid in detoxifying the body by facilitating the removal of waste and toxins.
4. **Relaxation:** Like other types of massages, lymphatic massages can promote relaxation and reduce stress.
5. **Post-Surgery Healing:** They are sometimes recommended post-surgery to reduce swelling and promote healing.
6. **Chronic Conditions:** People with certain chronic conditions, such as lymphedema or fibromyalgia, may benefit from lymphatic drainage massages as part of their treatment plan.
