How Does Lymph Move Through the Body?

The lymphatic system is very important to the proper functioning of the immune system. In a nutshell, your lymphatic system works by transporting lymph, a fluid with various proteins, nutrients, and other substances throughout the body to different organs. Lymph moves through the body via muscle groups found within the larger lymph vessels. Lymph can be stimulated to flow smoothly with deep abdominal breathing, regular exercise, controlled muscle contraction, and applied external compression when performed by a certified lymph drainage specialist. Lymphatic massage targets lymph movement with a series of manual compressing, stretching, and stroking techniques.

First Lymphatic Massage: What to Expect

If it's your first time receiving a lymphatic massage, Alora Health Spa welcomes you. We are always thrilled to introduce new clients to the power of the lymphatic massage.

While many people enjoy the pampering of massage therapy, it is reassuring to know what the treatment will entail.

When you visit our experts for a lymphatic massage, you can expect:

• A light pressure massage
• Rhythmic strokes and soft pumping movements
• A focus on the primary lymph nodes including your neck, armpits, and groin

Receiving a lymph node massage can also leave you feeling exhausted, and you may want to take it easy for the rest of the day.

Since the lymph note massage drains your system, you will likely be very thirsty, so drink a lot of water before and after the procedure.

High-Quality Massage Services at Competitive Rates

At Alora Health Spa, we understand the power and importance of our services. We also recognize that many people shy away from various spa-like treatments because they are largely unaffordable.

Our team is also happy to provide you with the total cost of the service before we get started. Providing our clients with transparent rates helps us to ensure your overall satisfaction with our services.

Indulge in a Lymphatic Massage

The health benefits of lymphatic massage therapy speak for themselves (and have been doing so since the early 1900s).

As soon as you walk through our doors, you’ll enter into a calming and soothing atmosphere. The licensed therapist assigned to you will customize every detail of your massage to your liking, from the volume level of music in the room to the amount of premium massage oils in their hands. You’re sure to emerge refreshed and rejuvenated.

Why Drain Your Lymph Nodes?

As a critical part of your immune system, your lymphatic system is made up of a network of hundreds of little nodes whose job is to move fluid back into your bloodstream. There are a number of reasons this system could be sluggish or malfunctioning. Be it genetics, illness, or environmental reasons, your body may need help to improve the process.

Our goal is to provide you with affordable resources to help you look and feel your best. The following are brief descriptions of some of our most popular drainage offerings:

Expert Lymphatic Massage on Legs

If your legs are holding a lot of fluid and toxins seem to be building up, you may find relief from lymphatic massage on your legs. The build-up of lymph in this area can be painful, cause discoloration, and make your legs feel much heavier than they are.

Gentle Lymphatic Massage on Your Face

A lymphatic system-focused massage for your face has many benefits. These include:

• Improves blood circulation and oxygen delivery to the skin on your face
• Reduces water retention in your face
• Removes swelling under your eyes
• Fine lines are reduced
• Helps to keep your facial complexion clear and glowing

Don't hesitate to reach out to us for more information on how our massage techniques can boost your immune system. Phone our office today to speak to an expert.

Effective Lymph Node Massage Neck

Lymph node massage for the neck focuses on moving fluid away from the malfunctioning nodes in your neck, down into your chest. Once fluids reach your chest, your lymphatic system may have an easier time with its removal process due to better node function in this area.

Complete Lymphatic Drainage of Stomach

If you feel like your stomach is permanently bloated, you are not alone. Lymphatic drainage of the abdomen can help move trapped fluids through your system to make it easier for you to expel them more quickly. Consult with our team to find out more about how we can help ease signs of bloating and water retention.

Lymphatic Drainage for Eyes

What happens when cellular waste builds up in your eyes? Swelling, puffy eyes and bags are common symptoms of these wastes not being processed appropriately. Through our specialized drainage techniques, we can help to eliminate these unwanted issues.

Advantages of Lymph Massage for Your Sinus

If you suffer from frequent headaches, sinus infections, vertigo, or tinnitus, lymph massages for your sinus could bring you great relief. Clearing your head of congestion will allow you to get the rest you need to heal. Reach out to our team today to learn more!

Lymphatic Massage after Liposuction

If you've just had liposuction, you already know how lumpiness can occur during your recovery process. In order to speed the softening of these hard areas, we recommend scheduling yourself in for lymphatic massages beginning two weeks after your surgical procedure. Typically, we recommend between three and five follow-up sessions to see the best results.
