Lymphatic Drainage
This is a very gentle
Skin movement technique. No oils or creams are used, but may be
administered on completion of the treatment, steaming blankets
are a definite contradiction and no pain should be experienced
if being treated by a qualified and skilled therapist.
About 50% of the population sufferers from a weakened lymphatic
system, and trouble with it can trigger a whole range of complaints
including: bronchitis, laryngitis, ear and eye problems, asthma,
eczema, sinus trouble and cystitis.
The human lymphatic
system is mainly ignored and more often abuses, despite the fact
that is works round the clock to removed the cellular debris and
foreign bodies, reduce excess fluids, fight infection and repair
damage throughout the body. By boosting your lymph, you will not
only have fewer colds and be less susceptible to illness, you
will also have a clearer skin and brighter eyes. It may even reduce
capillaries that transports blood from your heart to your cells
and back again. When you system becomes blocked by an infection
or overloaded by excessive toxins, problems can occur.
There are 5 internationally
renowned schools for manual lymphatic drainage: Vodder, Foldi,
Casley-Smith, Leduc and Asdonk and therapists will belong to the
MLDUK.
