Strengthen the Immune System with Massage
As scientists and studies are learning more about advanced healing treatments, massages have become a more common solution for many issues. Whether it is stress or chronic pain, a massage is a great way to reap the benefits while having a relaxing time. That being said, while people often link massages to pain or mental disdain, the spectrum of situations in which it can help are actually much larger.
Specifically, massages can also go deeper into the body and provide benefits to the lymphatic system, which can in turn promote immune health. So, in this article, we’ll be going over lymphatic drainage massage which is a service provided at our Orlando mobile massage clinic.
What is Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
As you may know, the lymphatic system is an essential part of the circulatory system which is majorly linked to the body’s immune system. Specifically, it consists of a network of organs, nodes, ducts, and more. All these work together to move lymph which is necessary to remove leaking fluid and maintain optimal immune response. With it being such an important part of the body, a lymphatic draining massage is a massage which promotes lymphatic movement.
Primarily performed by a lymphatic drainage therapist, this massage is gentle and meant to utilise gradual pumpkin motions to disturb the upper lymphatic capillaries. This can then cause them to open and close which is how the massage works to “drain lymph”. That being said, to truly understand this massage, it is important to see how it benefits the body,
Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage For The Immune System
While the list is often considered to be endless, here are some benefits which pertain directly to the immune system:
Improve Lymph Flow
Probably the most direct advantage of a lymphatic drainage massage is an improvement in lymph flow. Specifically, as the capillaries open and close, they have a tendency to promote movement throughout the entire system.
Increased Immune Response
Following the previous point, as lymph is able to move through the system faster, this will in turn increase immune response. As the immune system is linked to lymphatic flow, a better flow will provide a more specific and speedy immune response in your body.
Increased Fluid Drainage
Known as the body’s “sewage system,” the lymph system is responsible for removing excess fluid from the bloodstream. With the promotion of movement from this massage, a licensed massage therapist can improve the overall drainage of excess boldly fluid.
