What is the Lymphatic System and How Can Lymphatic Massage Help Me?
Your Lymphatic System is one of the most important and largely undiscussed systems of the body. It is a complex network of tissues and organs responsible for carrying waste out of the body and draining excess fluid left in the tissue. When it is not functioning properly, toxins can become embedded in your tissues creating a stagnant environment which causes broad inflammation and a domino effect of chronic dysfunction.
This lymphatic congestion can lead to fatigue, pain, depression, and a host of other issues. The lymphatic system works by transporting lymph, a colorless fluid containing white-blood cells that serve an essential role in the immune system. The lymphatic system plays many roles in maintaining a balance in your body and it is important to ensure that it is flowing properly. Lymphatic drainage is a therapeutic treatment used to decrease lymphatic congestion and is a great way to improve your health and wellbeing.
