What Is a Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
Definition and Purpose
Lymphatic massage therapy is a therapeutic treatment that encourages the movement of lymph fluid through your body. This helps flush toxins, reduce bloating, and stimulate immune response.
Origins and Techniques
- Vodder Method: Gentle, rhythmic hand movements encourage flow in the lymph vessels
- Post-Surgical Modifications: Special care is taken to avoid incisions and support healing
This method is popular for individuals recovering from surgery or those pursuing lymphdrainage massage for health and wellness reasons.
The Science Behind Lymphatic Massage
How the Lymphatic System Works
Your lymphatic system is a key part of your immune system. It filters toxins, transports white blood cells, and maintains fluid balance throughout your body.
Why Lymphatic Flow Is Vital for Health
Stagnant lymph can lead to puffiness, fatigue, and weakened immunity. Lymphatic drainage massage in NYC restores flow, helping your body function optimally.
How Manual Drainage Stimulates Detoxification
The gentle pressure used in lymphatic massage stimulates your body’s own detox response. It helps reduce inflammation, removes excess fluid, and improves circulation.
