Science Behind Bliss Therapy

Manual Lymph Drainage

12/27/2020

Your lymphatic system is a network of vessels and organs whose primary purpose is to provide detoxification. This is done through the transportation of waste that is left in the body. The waste is carried away by a chain of vessels to the lymph nodes for cleansing, prior to returning the clean lymph into the cardiovascular system. 
  • lymph carries lymphocytes and other white blood cells that fight infections in our body; therefore, healthy lymph means strong immune system;
  • lymphatic vessels don't have a pump like blood vessels do. Instead, the fluid travels using osmotic pressure and contractions from surrounding muscles and blood vessels.
  • if the lymph becomes stagnant, you may experience the following symptoms: frequent colds, mental fog, fatigue, edema (tissue swelling), headaches, allergies, cellulite, feeling sick. 
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) increases the movement of lymph, helps restore equilibrium in the body, and improves overall wellbeing. It is a very relaxing and gentle procedure.
MLD is beneficial for:
HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS (detoxification, relaxation, better sleep, and the immune system boost);
WEIGHT LOSS (cellulitis and aesthetic appearance of the skin);
POST-SURGERY (breast augmentation, BBL, fat transfer, Liposuction or any other surgery);
POST-TRAUMATIC SWELLING (as a part of recovery protocol);
PAIN: fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, migraine headaches, autoimmune conditions (Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis);
ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE (during the event and post event treatment);
OTHER BENEFITS: TMJ, alleviation of sinuses and allergies, ankles and feet swelling reduction during pregnancy or in people with chronic venous insufficiency. 

All of the above medical conditions benefit from MLD. However, a monthly maintenance session is recommended for everyone!

I want to improve my immune system. It's good to know that lymph draining can be helpful. I'll be sure to talk with someone to see if they can do that for me.
