Lymphatic Drainage
Amanda Helliwell Therapies
Lymphatic Drainage.
Lymphatic drainage therapy (LDT) is a gentle massage technique that works to stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. LDT involves applying gentle pressure and rhythmic movements to the lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels, promoting the flow of lymphatic fluid and helping to remove excess fluid and waste from the body.
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and wellness. Wet is responsible for removing toxins, excess fluid, and waste from the body, and helps to support the immune system by transporting lymphocytes and other immune cells to areas of the body where they are needed.
