Manual Lymphatic Therapy

Do you ever wonder why your chronic pain persists despite therapy and medication? Your lymphatic system may be obstructed. When the body does not have the ability to get rid of cellular waste, it creates inflammation which impedes the cellular regeneration/healing process. 

The lymphatic system is the filtration network of the body that gets rid of cellular waste. When this system is overloaded the body relies more on the other detox organs (kidney, liver, lungs, fat and skin)

The body, with the exception of nails, hair and cartilages bathes in lymphatic fluid. The lymphatic system works in unison with the immune system (as it is the first line of defense), with the circulatory system and the gastrointestinal system. It maintains the PH level in the body by removing excess proteins from the interstitial fluid.

Signs and symptoms of lymphatic issues:

Morning stiffness/tightness/soreness/itchiness

Bloating and/or swelling of face/belly/extremities

Bad breath

Painful or tender on palpating lymph nodes

Poor sleep

Inability to loose weigh

Brain fog/lack of focus

Endurance deficit

Slow recovery/training plateau

Easy bruising 

Delayed onset allergies

Red eyes/gray eyes

Headaches

Migraines

Neck pain

Stress

Gastro intestinal issues

Auto immune conditions

Circulation problems

Other reasons why you should look into Manual Lymphatic Drainage:
