Really enjoyed the Hands-Free Massage course offered by Knot Stressed. I learned a lot of great techniques that I can’t wait to incorporate into my treatments!

FRIDAY FACTS

Massage helps your body process waste and toxins.

Welcome to the new followers. Did you know that massage can help move lymph through your body to be processed by your lymph nodes. Lymph contains waste material from your blood. If you get too much of it for the lymph vessels to handle, it can lead to painful swelling called lymphoedema.

A study from 2005 found that in patients with mild upper-limb lymphoedema, massage was as effective at reducing swelling as compression bandages.

(Bernas, M. "Massage therapy in the treatment of lymphedema." IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine 24, no. 2 (March–April 2005): 143–145. )
