Copy of Lymph Drainage Therapy

Service Description

Traditional Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) uses a very light and gentle touch. The proper functioning of the lymphatic (immune) system is critical to your body’s ability to detoxify and regenerate tissues, filter out toxins and maintain a healthy immune system. It’s a complex system comprised primarily of lymphatic vessels and nodes that require physical movement (exercise) or massage to stimulate the functioning of the lymphatic system. When the lymph circulation stagnates, fluids and toxins accumulate and cellular functioning is significantly compromised. This opens the way to many physical ailments. The lymphatic system may be insufficient or the pathways blocked due to surgery, trauma, fatigue, on-going stress, lack of physical activity, emotional overload, cold temperatures, infections, significant swelling, age, chemicals or food additives. Lymph Drainage is an advanced but gentle therapy in which the therapist uses a range of specialized and gentle rhythmic pumping techniques to move the lymph in the direction of the natural lymphatic flow.  Benefits:     Cellulite reduction and weight loss     Control of and treatment for lymphedema     Relieve swelling and pain after cosmetic surgery     Accelerate healing and recuperation after cosmetic surgery   Improve chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia    Improve digestion and circulation    Is preventative and remedial    Minimize or reduce stretch marks    Promote detoxification of the body    Promote healing of wounds and burns, improves the appearance of old scars    Promote the healing of fractures, torn ligaments, sprains and lessens pain    Reduce stress and improve sleep    Relieve edema (swelling, fluid retention): swelling after trauma and surgery, swollen extremities, tired puffy eyes, swollen legs during pregnancy    Relieve inflammation, sinusitis, allergies, acne and other skin disorders    Strengthen the immune system  1 hr $90      1.5 hr $105 (preferred treatment time)      2 hr $140
