Lymphatic Drainage

What is Lymphatic Drainage

​Lymphatic Drainage or Lymphatic massage is a type of gentle massage that helps promote the natural drainage of lymph in the body. The lymphatic system is the body’s waste disposal where it helps remove bacteria, cell debris, excess water, proteins and wastes from connective tissue and returns it to the bloodstream where it is then finally eliminated by the kidneys.
