About Lymphatic Drainage Therapy
What is a lymphatic massage?
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is a gentle, rhythmical hands on therapy which has been shown to aid in the absorption of toxins and remove our body’s waste. Lymphatic drainage therapy when performed by a certified physical therapist can help your body absorb fat molecules, induce it to deep relaxation and provide it with antispastic actions. The therapy is beneficial in many ways. A 2015 study showed that lymphatic massage therapy is effective in addressing depression and stiffness symptoms among those who were diagnosed with fibromyalgia.
