Lymphatic Drainage

Schedule a Lymphatic Drainage Massage.

This gentle, rhythmic style of massage stimulates the lymphatic system, which is responsible for regulating our immune function. The lymphatic system works by absorbing fluid, toxins, waste material and foreign substances from our tissues. It then gets filtered and purified by the lymph nodes.  However, if it becomes stagnate, we can feel sluggish and are more susceptible to viral and contagious illnesses. By stimulating this system through massage, it works more efficiently, which in turn boosts the immune system. However, this type of bodywork is completely different than normal massage where the muscles and connective tissue is being addressed instead very light touch technique is used.  Lymphatic drainage induces a parasympathetic state, slowing the heart rate and breathing to relax muscles and allow organs to resume normal function – something we all could all use.  Our therapists are not medically certified in Lymph Drainage so we do not offer post-surgical bodywork sessions.
