Lymph Drainage

The lymph vessels are an important transport system in the body parallel to the blood vessels. If the lymph flow is obstructed, congestion and water retention (edema) in the connective tissue occur. Risk factors for edema are lack of exercise, overweight, accidents and operations with tissue injuries.

Manual lymphatic drainage activates lymphatic drainage in lymphatic tracts directly under the skin through special massage movements, stroking movements and pressure, drains off water accumulations and thereby improves joint mobility. Slag and toxins are removed from the tissue and fresh oxygen-rich blood can flow into the tissue.

Manual lymphatic drainage is a special form of classical massage - a gentle and relaxing treatment technique. Its aim is to make the lymph flow.
