  The gentle, rhythmic movements used in this technique can calm the nervous system, lower stress levels, and promote a sense of well-being.

  By improving lymphatic flow, this therapy supports the body’s ability to remove toxins and pathogens, potentially boosting immune health.

• Contributes to Skin Health:
  Improved circulation and waste elimination can benefit skin conditions, promoting clearer, healthier-looking skin.

What is Lymphatic Drainage Therapy?

Gentle, Effective Support for Your Body’s Natural Healing

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (LDT) is a gentle, non-invasive bodywork technique that helps stimulate the natural flow of lymphatic fluid throughout the body. The lymphatic system is essential for immune function, detoxification, and fluid balance. When lymph flow becomes restricted or sluggish, it can contribute to:

• Swelling and fluid retention

• Chronic inflammation

• Fatigue

• Toxin buildup in tissues

LDT uses light, rhythmic movements to encourage the proper drainage of lymph, supporting your body’s natural ability to cleanse, heal, and restore balance.
