Lymphatic Drainage Massage Cairns – Massage reduce swelling cairns
Massage reduce swelling cairns – The lymphatic system, which acts as purifying and drainage system for the body is put under strina when the body is injured or unhealthy. Waste products cannot be filtered out quickly enough and build up causing swelling at the site of injury or around the lymph nodes.
Lymph Drainage Massage Cairns – Manual lymph drainiage is a gentle, pumpiing massage which aims to speed up the removal of waste products by stimulating the lymphatic system.
- Lymph Drainage Massage Cairns – The technique is very useful on anyone with swelling or any injury, particularly a sports injury. Fluid retention may be relieved, and even acne and eczema may improve.
All the movements are performed up the body towards the nearest lymph nodes, starting nearest the body and moving out to the extremities.
The main lymph nodes are in the neck, armpits, groin, behind the knees and on the inside of the elbows. Since the lymph vessels are close to the surface, your pressure should be light. It is hard to believe that something so gentle could be so effective, but the following passage written by J.B.Memmel, a lymphatic therapist, in 1945 demonstrates the success of such a light massage on a swollen ankle: ‘An officer had been receiving massage treatments for many weeks before he came under my care. He at first laughed at the idea that our gentle handling could help him, when his former rigorous treatments had failed to do so. In a week he had changed his mind on finding the circumference of his ankle reduced by over 12 inches from the size it had been for many weeks. He added that he had thought I was crazy when I first ordered massage to begin on the thigh, when his trouble was in his foot”.
