Manual lymphatic drainage
Slow, gentle tactile technique, based on the targeted application of lightly graded pressure on subcutaneous lymphatic system. It restores and accelerates the flow of lymph within the lymphatic vascular system.
This drainage of subcutaneous tissues relieves swollen and "heavy" legs, mitigates cellulite, accelerates metabolic processes in the body and washes away toxic substances. Lymphatic drainage operates also as prevention of swelling, mitigates migraines and headaches, and supports the overall immunity.
