The Benefits Of Lymphatic Drainage

Lymphatic drainage is an important tool to keep the lymphatic system in good condition for optimum health. The main task of the lymphatic system is to keep the immune system operating well while cleaning and nourishing all the cells in the body, no matter what their function. A poorly functioning lymphatic system can affect every part of the body. Lymphatic drainage techniques can counteract the effects of adverse lifestyle choices and environmental pollutants that can compromise the immune system.

The Importance of a Well-Functioning Lymphatic System
The lymphatic system is made up of organs, ducts, nodes and vessels and is considered a vital part of the circulatory system. The clear fluid called lymph is made up of white blood cells including lymphocytes which help the body’s immune system defend against harmful bacteria and cancer cells. Lymph nodes which are found in the neck, abdomen, groin and armpit manufacture the cells that allow the body to remove cancer and fight off infections. Swelling of the lymph nodes, commonly called “swollen glands,” occurs when the lymph nodes manufacture more white blood cells to fight infection.

Lymphatic Drainage Techniques

The use of lymphatic topical preparations such as Pascoe Lymphdaral Cream, Biomed International products, Nestmann Remedies and UNDA compounds are recommended for clients with lymphatic system problems. These homeopathic preparations eliminate stored toxins to improve the immune system and treat disorders caused by a poorly functioning lymphatic system. Lymphatic massage is another technique used to treat the lymphatic system. For women who have had breast cancer surgery, lymphatic massage is recommended once each day, four or five times a week for two to four weeks. Each session can last up to an hour.
