What is lymph drainage?
Lymph drainage, also known as lymphatic drainage or lymphatic massage, is a therapeutic technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymphatic fluid through the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in supporting the immune system by helping remove waste, toxins, and excess fluid from tissues.
Conditions treated
Lymph drainage is commonly used to manage conditions such as lymphedema (swelling due to lymphatic system blockage), post-surgical recovery (especially after cosmetic or lymph node surgeries), and chronic conditions that impair lymphatic function.
