Therapeutic massage can help to maximize your health and sense of well-being through relaxation and muscle tension release. Lymphatic drainage massage is a deeply purifying type of therapeutic massage that goes beyond superficial tissue manipulation to reduce inflammation and swelling and help rid the body of toxins. When we are in a healthy state, our lymphatic system removes toxins, cellular debris, viruses, bacteria, and large protein and fat molecules from our systems naturally. Our lymphatic system is designed to produce immune cells, which increases and boosts our immune system. Our everyday behaviors and health issues sometimes get in the way. Things such as poor posture, an unhealthy diet, injury and surgery can cause fluid to build up and stagnate. This slows down lymph flow and causes congestion, which can have a direct impact on the functioning of the immune system.
