Lymphatic drainage

Lymphatic drainage is contraindicated for anyone:

• suffers from cancer, acute infections and/or allergies and thrombosis;
• has ongoing inflammation
  Note: if you are under the care of a medical professional, you will need to check with them whether or not you can have this treatment before making an appointment;
• are looking for a classic massage experience (this treatment involves extremely light pressure and does not work the deeper muscles).

Lymphatic drainage is a body massage that aims to eliminate excess fluids and toxins from the body. In order to achieve this effect, the massage is done with light, gentle movements, always towards the lymph nodes, in order to stimulate and empty them. Only a small amount of pressure is applied to the skin with the hands, as excessive pressure can inhibit lymphatic circulation, compromising its benefits.

The lymph nodes are found mainly in the neck, armpits and groin. Stimulation in these areas should be done before starting the emptying maneuvers, and should be repeated throughout the session.

Important: Lymphatic drainage treatment begins with an assessment of your health history.

It’s normal to feel exhausted after your lymphatic drainage treatment. We therefore advise you to make sure you rest before returning to your normal life.

We would also like to inform you that the best way to keep the lymphatic system healthy is to drink water and exercise so that it can eliminate toxins.

This treatment uses very light pressure and you are not supposed to feel any pain.

Note: If you are undergoing post-surgical treatment, you should advise the therapist of any areas of concern before starting the massage.

If the treatment becomes painful during the session, let the therapist know. She will do everything necessary to ensure that you feel comfortable.

Lymphatic drainage can be complemented by various aesthetic treatments that enhance its benefits. Learn about some of them:

• LPG EndermologieThis treatment uses a vacuum massage device to stimulate circulation and reduce cellulite. Lymphatic drainage can enhance the results by helping to eliminate the toxins released during endermologie.
• RadiofrequencyUsed to firm the skin and stimulate collagen production, radiofrequency benefits from lymphatic drainage, which reduces swelling and improves the definition of body contours.
• PressotherapyThis treatment uses air pressure to improve circulation and reduce fluid retention. Lymphatic drainage complements pressotherapy by further increasing the efficiency of fluid and toxin removal.
• HIEMT Sculpt: The high-intensity electromagnetic stimulation technique tones muscles and reduces localized fat. Lymphatic drainage helps eliminate the by-products of accelerated metabolism, promoting faster and more effective recovery.
• MesotherapyThis treatment involves the application of micro-injections of substances that help to eliminate localized fat and cellulite. Lymphatic drainage can speed up the distribution and elimination of these substances, improving results and reducing possible swelling.

How lymphatic drainage complements these treatments:

• Eliminates toxins released during treatments such as endermologie and mesotherapy.
• Reduces swelling and fluid retention, enhancing the effects of pressotherapy and radiofrequency.
• Improves circulation, benefiting recovery and the results of procedures such as HIEMT Sculpt.
• Promotes smoother and firmer skin, enhancing the effects of all aesthetic treatments combined.

Combining lymphatic drainage with these treatments provides faster and more effective results, guaranteeing a more toned and healthy appearance.
