Lymphatic massage helps:
- reduction of edema
- the flow of lymph and venous circulation
- the healing process of scars
- metabolic processes
- detoxification processes
- increasing the range of motion of the joints
- reduction of tense, heavy limb feeling
- reducing the degree of the starting neck-back transition (“hump”)
The human body has self-regulating and self-healing mechanisms, a healthy body can remove toxic substances during its function. BUT, no generation has been exposed to as many man-made chemicals and toxins as we have, causing our detoxification and excretory organs to become overloaded. Our body is burdened with large amounts of toxins every day. Let’s take a look at our cosmetic products in our closet (deodorant, toothpaste, shaving cream, shampoo, shower gel, lip gloss, eyeshadow, etc.), what exactly do they contain?! Cosmetics are absorbed through our skin, many of them contain parabens, formaldehyde, antibacterial agents, aluminum salts, fungicidal additives, butyl derivatives, etc. which can have a harmful effect on the hormonal system, the immune system and the lymphatic system.
The functioning of the lymphatic system can be stimulated by gravity, muscle contraction (exercises), adequate hydration (fluid intake), lymphatic massage and bandaging as therapies.
Advices:
- Conscious shopping
- Regular exercises, sports
- Adequate fluid intake and a healthy diet
- Twice a year detoxifying lymph massage, if there is no reason to exclude it
