I received three days of lymphatic drainage massage, and this is what I noticed.
Aesthetics were never the goal when I decided to study lymphatic drainage. Honestly, I hadn’t even noticed the visual difference until I looked back at these photos.
After spending hours sitting in the car travelling to Sydney, my body had very little opportunity for movement, something that plays an important role in supporting lymphatic flow.
Over the three days —
• I felt physically and mentally lighter. Not just in my body, but in my mind too. I felt like I was floating after each treatment.
• I slept incredibly well, it could have been the four nights away from my 14 month old but the research has come back inconclusive…may need a few more nights away to compare notes.
• My digestion felt different. Usually, a few nights away from home slows things down for me, but this time everything stayed regular. I wasn’t experiencing that usual heaviness after meals out either.
And of course, there was a visible difference in my abdomen between day one and day three.
Your lymphatic system doesn’t need to be switched on. It’s already working for you, every single day. Movement, breathing and the natural contractions of your lymphatic vessels all help keep fluid moving.
Manual lymphatic drainage is one of the ways we can support this process.
To experience this treatment multiple times throughout training really helped me understand the difference someone can feel from receiving it. If you are curious about lymphatic drainage, send us a message.
