Lymphatic drainage massage training workshop
Lymphatic drainage massage helps filter bacteria and rid the body of toxins whilst maintaining correct fluid balance in the tissues. Beneficial after injury and illness to help re-balance and strengthen the body. If the body becomes stressed in any way, through injury, tension, illness or surgery, lymph is restricted and toxins accumulate in the tissues. Specialised techniques help target the lymphatic system more specifically to achieve better results than just massage alone.
This course covers techniques to stimulate the lymphatic system and help maintain its core function. Lymphatic drainage massage can help with a range of problems including detoxifying the body, sinus problems, swollen legs and ankles, lymphoedema, muscle damage, fluid retention and many other associated problems.
