A Lymphatic Drainage Massage - Does It Really Improve Your Health

A Lymphatic Drainage Massage: Does It Really Improve Your Health?

6 de April de 2022

The rise in popularity of the lymphatic drainage massage is due to its reported potential of treating various health conditions. It’s also known as a detoxifying massage, which focuses on the lymphatic system, which forms a critical part of the immune system.

The lymphatic drainage massage facilitates an efficient burning of calories to speed up the healing of scar tissues, reduce swelling and improve the skin texture. This particular type of massage effectively improves blood circulation, balances body fluids, and supports the immune system.

It’s mainly a necessary massage therapy for people with inflammation in the abdominal area. Therefore, it’s a type of massage therapy with numerous health benefits:

What’s the lymphatic system?

The lymphatic system includes vessels, water, toxins, lymph nodes, proteins, and other elements. Lymph nodes have to filter out the debris present in the lymphatic system to work efficiently. The neck, armpits, and groin have the most prominent lymph nodes in the body. Their work is to filter out any dirt in the lymph that veins transport to the heart.

Using the lymphatic drainage massage to Treat lymphedema

Lymphedema is a health condition that develops in either legs or arms—and features swelling. Research has shown that lymphatic drainage massage is effective in treating lymphedema. What causes the swelling?

This condition results from genetic disorders, cancer treatment, surgery, or injury. These reasons cause lymph fluid to build up in the soft tissues. Here are some of the symptoms:

  • Tissue swelling
  • General weakness
  • Skin discoloration
  • Heavy limbs
  • Pain

Other conditions that can be treated using the lymphatic drainage massage

While the lymphatic drainage massage can help people with lymphedema, it can be used to treat many health problems. Various studies indicate that the lymphatic drainage massage can be effective in treating the following health conditions:

  • Chronic venous insufficiency: This is a condition that occurs when valves in the legs fail to work correctly, affecting the flow of blood back to the heart. The lymphatic drainage massage can effectively help to increase the blood flow from the legs to the core.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis: People with rheumatoid arthritis often experience poor lymph flow as the condition worsens. This is followed by intense pain, increased tissue swelling, improper joint function, and skin discoloration. A lymphatic drainage massage can be used to relieve these symptoms.
  • Fibromyalgia: This condition is known to cause skin discoloration, tissue swelling, and skin nerve inflammation. The lymphatic drainage massage has helped people with fibromyalgia live happy and less-stressful lives.

Need more information?

What’s left is to try it. Remember that for a successful lymphatic drainage system, you must consider seeking qualified professionals who possess unmatched experience and expertise to use this type of massage therapy.

Please get in touch with us today to schedule a session. We aim to provide unmatched massage therapy services that can solve all your health concerns.
