When A Lymphatic Drainage Massage Is A Must?

    In a sense, the lymphatic system is the body's cleaning system. The lymphatic system is composed of vessels, nodes, and organs that help the lymph flow properly, remove waste products from it and direct them to organs responsible for flushing them out. Without a functional lymphatic system, lymphatic fluid and toxins can build up in your tissues, putting your body at risk of certain diseases.

Massages and long, gentle, and rhythmic strokes help restore the lymphatic system's optimal function in lymphatic drainage.
