Lymphatic drainage therapy
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (LDT) is a hands on method of lymphatic drainage. Using exacting and precise manual techniques, LDT allows therapists to detect specific rhythm, depth and quality of the lymph flow anywhere in the body.
Therapists work with flat hands, to gently stimulate wave like movements of the lymph as it flows in the body. The lymphatic system is closely related to the circulatory system, working with the cardiovascular system to transport a fluid called lymph around the body.
The lymphatic system plays a vital role in the body against disease. It is a complex system primarily comprised of lymph vessels and nodes working together.
When the lymph system is flowing properly, it functions to filter out toxins and foreign substances, detoxify and regenerate tissue, maintaining a healthy immune system, and to help the body to heal itself.
Although the vessels of the lymphatic system carry lymph, the fluid is not pumped around the body as blood is. It is moved along by contractions of muscles surrounding the lymph vessels.
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle hands on therapy designed to activate and cleanse the human fluid system, like a moving filtration system. Lymphatic drainage helps to activate the movement of lymph, in this very fluid and moving environment .Unlike the blood circulation, lymph circulation is a fluid compartment with a slow rhythm, low velocity, and low pressure.
