Immune Disorder Treatment
If you or someone you know grapples with an immune or autoimmune disorder, seeking natural avenues to alleviate symptoms is often a priority. Massage therapy emerges as a natural approach to enhance well-being and effectively manage symptoms. Among these methods, manual lymphatic drainage stands out as a proven massage technique that aids in various cases.
Given that the lymphatic system plays a pivotal role in the body’s immune response, a massage modality supporting this system logically enhances the quality of life for those dealing with immune, autoimmune, and thyroid disorders.
Research indicates that individuals coping with rheumatoid arthritis experienced reduced pain, enhanced grip strength, decreased swelling, and improved range of motion through the integration of massage into their routines. Children with the same condition exhibited lowered anxiety levels, reduced pain, and overall lower cortisol levels.
For those diagnosed with conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS) or fibromyalgia, employing manual lymphatic drainage contributes to alleviating symptoms of pain and depression. MS patients observed improvements in balance and movement speed.
Patients with fibromyalgia reported decreased stiffness, fatigue, and a sense of calm due to reduced cortisol levels. Research even suggested that among female fibromyalgia patients, lymphatic drainage proved more effective than connective tissue massage in alleviating morning anxiety and fatigue.
Detoxification
Many individuals grappling with autoimmune disorders face challenges in detoxification. This impairment pertains to the body’s ability to distinguish between its own cells and foreign pathogens. For these patients, cytokines (immune cells involved in inflammation) increase inflammation and excessively stimulate the immune system. Medications target specific types of cytokines to suppress their effects. Interestingly, massage therapy has been found to have a suppressive effect on these same cytokines, according to the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami. However, for autoimmune conditions, consulting a physician prior to massage therapy and monitoring the treatment’s duration is crucial to gauge the body’s response.
