Boost Your Immune System  
By Windy Kerwin 

If you are feeling under the weather, sluggish, depressed, stressed, unmotivated a lymphatic massage may be just what you are looking for to get you back on track. 

Most of us have heard of the network of blood vessels that run through our body.  There is a second circulatory system called the Lymph System. The lymph bathes every cell of our body and carries nutrients, oxygen and waste products such as toxins and carbon dioxide. The lymphatic system acts like a vacuum picking up excess fluid that leaks out of the blood. Once these toxins are in the lymph vessels, they are slowly pumped towards the lymph nodes. The lymph nodes break down the toxins. Often after a treatment the client may need to urinate which further aids the detoxification process.  Drinking 6-8 glasses of water per day will also help flush the lymphatic system. 

The lymphatic system is intimately connected with your immune system and is important for it to be functioning at it's optimal state.  With a strong lymph system the body is better able to fight off foreign substances and protect against disease.  The lymph system relies on muscle action to help it pump.  Areas that are stuck need may need a little external help from a trained professional. The therapist assesses and treats area that are backed up by providing a gentle hands-on pumping and flowing technique that helps cleanse and revitalize the body. Areas that may be worked include, neck, head, arms, chest, abdomen, front of legs.
