Feel lighter and energised!
A lymphatic massage is a very gentle type of massage, done without oil. The lymph system being the rubbish collector/cleanser of the body, by flushing toxins and clearing your lymph nodes (where viruses/bacterias/toxins are destroyed) you stimulate your body’s natural defenses. And it has a strong diuretic affect, reducing bloating and improving digestion.
And it's amazing at keeping your immunity in fighting form and/or at helping with lingering viral symptoms such as tiredness, lack of energy and brain fog.
And as a bonus, it is super relaxing and wonderfully calming to the nervous system. 🥰

What is Lipedema? Lipedema is a connective tissue chronic disorder, affecting woman only. Causing adipose tissue to accumulate disproportionately in the limbs, with different types based on the affected areas and a progression through stages changing the skin's texture and the fat distribution. Types are defined by the location of accumulation ( see attached picture).

What are the symptoms: as well as the unusual distribution of fat, women suffering from lipedema are often very sensitive to touch, bruise easily, feel pain and discomfort in the affected areas and are often hyperflexible. Their hands and feet stay a normal size. As well as compression garments, skin brushing, modification of diet( towards a very low carb diet) and weight training, manual lymphatic drainage massage can help patients living with lipedema to manage and improve their condition. Over time, fat deposits can block lymphatic vessels resulting in fluid in swelling. Lymphatic massage is a technique that gently guides lymph fluid through the lymph system. The goal is to prevent lymph from building up in affected parts of the body, which can cause damage to the lymphatic system in addition to swelling.
Other benefit of manual lymphatic drainage is that it can be performed at home : Your can learn how to do a self massage which only takes a few minutes each day. Consistency is the key.
It is also recommended to get regular professional lymphatic massage which is more comprehensive.
And as a bonus, it is super relaxing and wonderfully calming to the nervous system. 🥰

Well, the goal of a 'normal' massage is to work on the muscles: to stretch and lengthen them to their optimal resting position. Using mainly hands with an appropriate pressure (and at times other tools like cupping). It can feel nice, it can feel a bit sore, it can feel relaxing, wonderful and at times a bit challenging, if you have a lot of tension and painful knots that need detangling. You should leave feeling much better, less achy. And relax.

While the goal of a lymphatic massage is to speed up and flush the lymph system. What is the lymph system? It is the rubbish collector/cleanser of the body. It is an integral part of your immune system. It keeps the fluid in your body in balance and your immune system in fighting form. How is it done? By alternating between gently pumping the lymph nodes and moving stagnant lymph fluid( reducing swelling) towards those lymph nodes for cleansing. Flushing toxins, viruses, bacterias and pathogens. This is a very gentle type of massage, done without oil, using light pressure, gravity( your legs are elevated) and compression bandages (when appropriate) to support the process. It is super revitalising. And stimulating to the whole body, your digestion and your immune system. It helps fighting lingering viral symptoms such as tiredness, lack of energy and brain fog. And so much more...
And as a bonus, it is super relaxing and wonderfully calming to the nervous system. 🥰

Stressed? Anxious? How can Reiki help you:
Reiki heals by balancing the body’s energy centres and removing blockages. As a result, the energy flows to the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual spaces, exactly where it is needed. Reiki works to heal the cause rather than the symptoms of any condition. And it is is very calming to the nervous system, relaxing and uplifting. Want to try it?🥰
