LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE


The lymph system drains excess liquid from the tissues and eliminates toxins. The term lymph comes from the Latin word "lympha", which means clear water or spring water. Lymph drainage is performed with a special massage technique which involves applying light pressure in circular movements with the fingers to encourage the flow of lymphatic fluid and support circulatory system, always starting at the extremities and working inwards.

 

Local lymph blockages, e.g. after surgery, liposuction or inflammatory skin diseases, can be eliminated either manually or by way of LPG massage to support and speed up the healing process.

 

This drainage effect also boosts the immune system, and the fine movements reduce lymph blockages and have a beneficial and relaxing effect. Several massages will be necessary to achieve the desired result.
