The use of these modalities is with discretion, following a primary care provider's recommendations. All pathologies should be addressed specifically, especially if medications are being taken. Lymphatic Drainage enhances the normal waste elimination functions. It may stir up old symptoms, flush out toxins, uncover hidden discomforts, create reactive releases. Check with Health Care Provider first. Always follow the general rules - LESS IS MORE The more congested the area, The lighter and slower the pressure, with little or no compression. If it is thinner in viscosity and the congestion tends to release, Progressively use firmer pressure, medium speed, deeper pulsing/pumping. Calculate length of time spent massaging with discretion, Less repetitions for a gentle reaction, longer for more detoxification.
