What is Lymphatic Drainage?

Lymphatic drainage, offered by La Pause Yoga et Massothérapie, is a very gentle massage technique that involves pumping and draining the lymph nodes. The goal is to stimulate lymph circulation and detoxify the body while strengthening the immune system. Lymphatic drainage is performed with the fingers and the palms of the hands over the entire body.

When lymph circulation does not function properly in a part of the body, fluids accumulate, causing the tissues to become intoxicated by their own waste. This leads to discomfort, swelling, and sometimes pain. It’s a gentle yet effective technique that also provides many benefits to the nervous system. Relaxation and well-being guaranteed.

Why get a lymphatic drainage massage:

• To better eliminate toxins by removing excess fluids and waste

• To stimulate the release of stagnant water, reduce swelling (edema), and relieve heaviness in the limbs

• To better nourish the body, as lymph also carries nutrients

• To help the body heal before and after surgery

• To strengthen the immune system
