Lymphatic SOS
I love doing Manual lymphatic drainage for people!
Research shows that you can improve the flow of your lymph system more through a MLD session than through exercise believe it or not – 70% more.
After an MLD session those results maintain for about 24 hours and then they back off a bit, though not entirely. With additional treatment, the body recalibrates and swifter flow is possible, barring chronic edema or lymphedema diagnoses.
Regardless of diagnoses or not, working at home on your lymph system after a session helps your gains remain for a longer time and causes your regressions to be less.
Body brushing is a powerful tool. You can read more about it on my website here. I have long-handled body brushes for sale in the office if you would like to pick on up.
I found this little routine that is pretty easy to remember. You can see a video of the routine here. I don’t know much about the guy doing the protocol but I think that the order and the general idea of it is good, so I share it. I have been trying it myself.
