Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a great way to improve one's overall health and vibrancy. The lymphatic system plays such an important role in maintaining your overall health because it is connected to every other system and cell in the body. The lymphatic system is part of your immune and circulatory system and is referred to as the body's "second" circulatory system and is responsible maintaining fluid balance. The lymphatic system filters and removes excess waste from the body. It is approximately twice as vast as the cardiovascular system but does not have a central pump like the heart. Instead, lymph flows in only one direction, towards the heart where it connects to the circulatory system. When the lymphatic system functions properly, individuals feel vibrant, energetic, and clear-headed. However, when the system becomes congested, individuals may experience symptoms such as bloating, lethargy, constipation, headaches, aches and pains, and anxiety.

A congested or malfunctioning lymphatic system can lead to the accumulation of cellular waste and proteins in the tissues which can contribute to illness and disease. Proper lymphatic circulation is crucial for overall health and reduces puffiness and bloating, as well as aids in weigh loss.
