Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic Massage is an advanced, massage therapy technique that is used to cleanse and detoxify the body. This technique employs slow, gentle, and deep strokes to assist the movement of lymphatic fluid which can support the overall function of the immune system. This type of massage is generally very gentle, but there are some serious contraindications, because massage work around the lymphatic system can make some medical conditions worse.

To ensure that the lymphatic system is clear, so some practitioners recommend that lymphatic massage is right before surgery. Some practitioners offer breast massage to pregnant women and nursing mothers to reduce the aches and pains associated with the changes in breast tissue that occur during pregnancy. Lymph massage can also be used as a tool for general well-being.

People with inflammations and current infections should not get lymph massage, because the massage can encourage the spread of the infection. Lymph massage is also contraindicated for people with tumors and undiagnosed lumps, as well as people with clotting issues and heart problems. Lymphatic massage can make all of these conditions worse.

Clients should always communicate about pain during the massage, and they should also be aware that swollen lymph nodes can be a sign of a serious health condition which requires medical treatment, not massage.
