Introduction
Manual lymphatic drainage massage is a type of massage that uses gentle movement and compression to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid, which can help reduce swelling in the body. It’s most commonly used to treat lymphedema, a condition caused by an inability to drain lymph fluid from the arms or legs. But manual lymphatic drainage can also help with other issues such as cellulite, joint pain and scar tissue due to injury or surgery.
Boosts immunity
Lymphatic drainage massage can also help boost your immunity. By removing toxins from the body, you’re less likely to get sick or develop an infection. If you’ve been battling a cold or flu for weeks, this is an excellent treatment option for you!
It’s also important not to overlook the psychological benefits of lymphatic massage Sydney. The lymph system removes toxins in the blood stream that may lead to depression and anxiety. When these chemicals are removed, it allows your body to feel more relaxed and balanced—which make everyday life more enjoyable!
The lymph nodes are responsible for fighting infections and other diseases in our bodies; in addition, they absorb nutrients from foods we eat so they can be used by our cells as energy sources when needed (such as during exercise). This means that anything which increases flow through these nodes will improve our overall health as well—meaning you’ll still need those vitamins after eating them!”
Reduce pain and tension in areas with scar tissue or damage from injury or surgery.
Manual lymphatic drainage massage can help reduce pain and tension in areas with scar tissue or damage from injury or surgery. Scar tissue is a type of connective tissue that forms over wounds, and it’s generally a product of the body’s healing process. But sometimes, it can cause pain and stiffness in affected areas. Manual lymphatic drainage massage helps to break up scar tissue so that your body can absorb it more easily. As a result, you’ll feel less soreness when you move around—and maybe even some relief from other ailments that might be aggravated by tight muscles!
Promotes relaxation and reduces stress.
Stress can cause pain. Stress can cause muscle tension, and muscle tension can cause pain. Stress also causes headaches, back pain, chest pain, stomach pain and many other types of discomfort. Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage relieves stress and helps relieve the symptoms associated with stress.
The gentle movement of MLD massage improves blood circulation by increasing lymph flow through the lymph nodes that are distributed throughout your body’s tissues (not just in your arms or legs). The lymph system is one part of your body’s “immune system” because it helps remove waste products from tissues that might otherwise build up to create swelling, inflammation and pain if not eliminated in this way. Massaging these vessels opens them up so they work better at removing toxins from your tissue cells as well as allowing for more efficient oxygen delivery for better energy levels all day long!
Helps to detoxify the body of accumulated waste products, bacteria and other toxins.
The liver, kidneys and skin are the main organs of detoxification. As they work to eliminate toxins from the body, they produce certain by-products that can be harmful if left in the body for too long. One example is uric acid.
Manual lymphatic drainage massage helps detoxify the body by increasing your circulation and improving lymph flow through gentle techniques that help break down waste products faster so they can be removed from your tissues more easily. This process also reduces the risk of developing hardening of your arteries or gallstones (small stones made up of cholesterol).
Reduces inflammation.
It is important to understand that inflammation is a normal part of the healing process.
However, inflammation can be beneficial or harmful. It can cause pain and discomfort if it lasts too long or gets out of control. Inflammation is a response to tissue damage and begins with blood vessels dilating, fluids leaking into damaged cells, and white blood cells rushing in to help fight off foreign invaders (bacteria). If you’ve ever had surgery or been in an accident where you injured yourself, you have probably experienced some swelling after the injury occurred because this process was activated by your body’s natural response.
Helps increase circulation by rerouting blood flow to areas in need as well as drawing new blood into congested areas.
The primary benefit of manual lymphatic drainage massage is that it helps to reduce the build-up of fluids in the body. The increased circulation that is promoted by this type of massage can help with a range of issues, including lymphatic congestion. It also helps to increase blood flow and remove toxins from your body.
This type of massage is often used to treat lymphedema as well as cellulite and other ailments related to fluid retention in the body. This type of massage is also known as manual lymphatic drainage or MLD for short, which stands for manual lymphatic drainage therapy.
Helps reduce swelling, both chronic and acute.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage helps reduce swelling in many areas of the body, including legs, ankles and feet; face; hands; arms; abdomen; groin area (the area between your genitals and bottom); breasts.
If you suffer from edema (swelling due to water retention), MLLD massage can help with that as well. It can also be used as a preventative measure for people who are at risk of developing edema or other conditions that cause swelling in the body.
