The benefits of lymph stimulation are many. I talk about lymph stimulation often as the lymph system is often overlooked. The lymphatic system plays a significant role in the body’s functioning, filtering impurities from the body, supporting the immune system, and maintaining the fluid balance in the tissues. Lymph fluid is formed in the tissues and flows toward the heart through a complex system of lymph capillaries, vessels and nodes, following largely the same path as the venous system. Unlike the heart, which has its own pump, it is the natural rhythmic pulsations within the lymph vessels that propel the lymph fluid along its cleansing path. These pulsations occur by you physically moving your body, or by having someone physically move the lymph fluid. Our modern, mostly sedentary life and rich diet can inhibit the healthy functioning of the lymphatic system and our skin can pay the price.
If you have never experienced a Dr. Hauschka treatment, now is a great time to book a session. It is a cleansing, healing and relaxing full body treatment. At the heart of the Dr. Hauschka treatment is the work with the lymph system, stimulating toxins to drain. Using slow, rhythmical hand strokes and soft brushes, this relaxing touch helps breathing slow down and tension slip away. Clients experiencing lymph stimulation as part of their Dr. Hauschka treatment describe a sensation of being transported to a place of deep relaxation and peace.
If you are feeling a bit sluggish and heavy, please consider treating yourself to a healing, lymph stimulating treatment.
