Your lymphatic system contains a series of lymph nodes which help to remove fluid and waste leave the body. In fact its role is so crucial that it plays a vital role in the health of your immune system.

What happens if your lymphatic system becomes blocked? Well then the fluid builds up causing your entire system to become toxic, making you feel sluggish and and it makes you more susceptible to viruses & contagious diseases.

What can I expect from a Lymphatic massage session?

By stimulating your lymphatic system through massage, it causes it to work more efficiently, which in turn:

• Boosts your immune system
• Clears blockages
• Eliminates built up toxins
• Transports nutrients to cells and increases their metabolism.

In contrast to other forms of massage, lymphatic drainage uses a very light pressure with the therapist concentrating on a specific localized area like the sinuses.
 
Who Can Benefit Most From Lymphatic Drainage?

We find that lymph drainage massage is especially useful for those suffer regularly from colds, flu symptoms and sinus problems.

It is also recommended to reduce puffiness or swelling. It has been reported to also have a positive effect on problem skin, cellulite, dysfunctional respiratory systems and people with low energy.

Interesting article on breast cancer survivers and a new massage therapy technique that is being tested.

There is nothing scarier than the "C" word. In fact in our grandparents days no one would even say the word. It was almost like it "might" bring bad luck.

No one knows that more than a woman who hears the dreaded words, "You have breast cancer".

Just typing these words gives me a lump in my throat.

In this article at  WDNU.com they talk about how  a new technique in  massage therapy is giving many woman hope for the first time.  The therapy revolves around asome tools that were developed for something called the GRASTON technique that have been effective in working with those who have received sports injuries in the past.

Doctors a the Centre P.C find that it ALSO breaks down the scar tissue in the breasts that cause a lot of pain.  Notice what the DR says:

"We know that massage is good for blood supply, we know it's good for scar tissue, so if we can employ massage techniques in and around the reconstructive area, or even the donor site, we can expedite healing," said Dr. Downs.

Therapist Barb Ditmer says the tools make all the difference.

"We have found that if we perform massage manually using the tools it causes microtrauma, which helps break down and restructure the tissue," said Barb.

For Tracy, who thought she was facing another surgery, the Graston Therapy has meant all the difference in the world.

"You would think it would hurt, but it doesn't," said Tracy. "It feels good like your body needs it.

Dr. Downs believes the technique is working. He says, "they're getting tremendous relief from this."

I am excited to hear about this progress. I hope it helps many other woman find relief from their pain.
