Lymph Massage

Our bodies are made of a complex host of systems and functions. The lymphatic system is one of the most important systems and supports all functions within the body. There is actually twice as much lymph fluid in the body as blood, making over 50% our total fluids.  Powered only by breathing and movement, the lymph system flows in one direction through every cell in the body, to remove debris and impurities. There are 500 junctions in the body, called lymph nodes, that act as filters that cleanse and act as a booster to the immune system.  As blood circulates through the body delivering oxygen and nutrients, the local cells pick them up, use what they need and get rid of waste, dead cells and impurities. The lymph nodes work to create antigens that combat these impurities and restore the body’s balance. At times the lymph system’s flow can become blocked with impurities and by-products and cause serious illness or disease. Much like a river that becomes clogged with pollution, the flow may need to take a detour, or the river may become clogged completely.

The lymph massager influences many paths to health. 

• Can stimulate the release of ATP (Adenosine triphosphate), the molecules from which all cells derive energy. 

• Increases phagocytosis, (encapsulating and eliminating - pathogens and debris.) 

• Can increase circulatory function, helping to move nutrients, gases, and wastes, to and from cells.  Helps to fight disease in order to maintain homeostasis.  

• Stimulates the production of collagen, (which is found in all of the connective tissues), thus reducing pain and inflammation throughout the body. 

• Aids in tissue regeneration, the repair process of cells, and so much more.

• Can improve circulation in skin, reducing wrinkles, and blemishes.

The lymph massager may be applied to virtually any part of the body,  to alleviate pain, stimulate  blockages in the lymph nodes and oxygenate the system.
