Lymphatic Drainage
Manual lymphatic drainage with constant and rhythmic movements
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a massage technique, whose applied movements are constant, rhythmic and precise, with light pressure, which aims to stimulate the lymphatic system, accelerating the process of transporting lymph to the lymph nodes.
This type of massage promotes the general detoxification of the body, as it eliminates liquids and toxins accumulated in the tissues.
It is therefore indicated for issues of fluid retention, cellulite and localized fat, vascular problems, post-operative situations, feeling of tired legs, swollen feet at the end of the day, constipation or
The applied movements consist of light, gentle, rhythmic and precise pressures, in a circular and spiral way, always towards the lymph nodes and it does not use any type of cream and does not cause pain.
Mechanical Lymphatic Drainage (pressotherapy), Controlled Compression
Pressotherapy or mechanical lymphatic drainage is a controlled mechanical compression system that promotes the natural process of drainage, through the insufflation of intermittent air chambers.
By stimulating venous and lymphatic circulation, this mechanical massage eliminates existing toxins between the tissues, which cause various problems, such as fluid retention, circulatory problems, cellulite and swelling.
It is very important to differentiate manual lymphatic drainage from anti-cellulite or remodeling aesthetic massage, which is carried out with oils or creams and whose pressure is very strong, having its main effect on the circulatory and not on the lymphatic level.
