Lymphatic Massage Benefits

Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage - Mesa AZ - Arizona Relationship Institute

 

Integrated healthcare providers are leaning more towards utilizing “Lymphatic Massage” (also known as “Lymphatic Drainage”) in recent years. Arizona Relationship Institute uses lymphatic drainage massage as an optional integrated service for guests utilizing our other services. We truly believe in the potential benefits of lymphatic massage for our patients.

What is The Lymphatic System?

The lymphatic system in our bodies helps to rid toxins from the body and is complimentary to (works in conjunction-with) the circulatory system (blood, heart, vessels, veins, etc.).

What Does The Lymphatic System Do?

Put simply, the lymphatic system helps to rid the body of toxins, and “filters” blood and other body fluids. It is an essential part of a health immune system.

Lymphedema and Swelling

Many times, the lymphatic system will slow or a blockage in the system can cause a backup of fluids. When this happens, you will see swelling in the feet, legs, extremities, and anywhere else the excess fluid is being retained. Those who are prone to chronic recurring bouts of swelling or suffer from long-lasting swelling may suffer from lymphedema or related issues.

Relief for Swollen Legs and Lymphedema

While those suffering from swollen legs and lymphedema should seek a physician to determine the underlying cause of the edema, lymphatic massage can offer some relief for the symptoms.

Lymphatic Massage is also called “Lymphatic Drainage” for a very good reason — it helps to manually drain the swollen areas of the retained fluids. Much like open heart massage keeps the circulatory system manually pumping, so does lymphatic massage manually push the lymphatic system along. Though, lymphatic massage is much less invasive and rather pleasant for the patient.

Who Does Lymphatic Massage Benefit?

Lymphatic massage can be a benefit to anyone suffering from pain and discomfort attributed to swelling and fluid retention. Though it does have medical benefits, you don’t need a doctor to reap the benefits of lymphatic drainage and massage. Once could even perform lymphatic drainage on oneself — if the situation presented the need.

However, lymphatic massage is best performed by another person, preferably a massage therapist or chiropractor that is familiar with and trained in lymphatic drainage techniques. It can benefit of number of people, including:

      • Individuals Suffering from Lymphedema
      • Those With Rheumatoid Arthritis
      • Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI)
      • Diabetes Sufferers
      • Pregnant Women Suffering Swelling
      • Women and Men with Fluid Retention Issues

Therapists Get The Conversation Going

Once someone feels comfortable talking with their therapist, they often begin to open up about things they have kept secret, including health problems or symptoms they have been worried about, but kept to themselves. Your therapist needs to be able to direct you to where these concerns should be addressed. Having a team of integrated physicians, nurses and health professionals helps your therapist to confidently guide you to the answers to your questions that they may not be able to professionally answer.
