Lymph Massage For Immune System Wellness

There are many styles or types of massage therapy. There is deep tissue, hot stone, Swedish, and Shiatsu, just to name a few. One of the lesser known massage techniques is lymphatic or lymph massage.

 

Lymphatic massage is a specialty style of massage therapy that is geared towards lymphatic drainage. It is a gentle form of massage, and is stimulating to the lymph system, which promotes the removal of toxins in the body. It influences the removal of waste in the system and promotes a healthy immune system.

A lymph massage, can be a great preventative treatment at the onset of the flu and cold season. One or two lymph massages can give your immune system the support it needs to ward off illness. Lymph nodes, which are located throughout the body, become swollen when the white blood cells are provoked into fighting infection. Swollen nodes are usually the first signs that your immune system is currently under attack.

Our immune system, when in a healthy state, should be able to handle a little cold or virus with ease. However, we live in a very stress-filled environment, and this can cause our lymph system over-stimulation as well, quickly becoming compromised. Aside from too much stress, what other events can overwork our lymph system? Surgery, poor nutrition, and illness can push your immune system to exhaustion, causing you to be more susceptible to any illness. How can you assist your immune system and win the battle?

One of the best ways to support your lymphatic system is through lymph massage. This specialty massage is mostly upper body, focusing on the arms, neck, face and chest. The gentle touch stimulates the lymphatic channels to release and relax, allowing better flow and increased circulation.

A lymph massage is also helpful for those suffering from chronic pain or recovering from an accident. Help your immune system to help you, it is, after all, your first defense.
