Massage Therapy
While all massage can be termed "therapeutic", different styles accomplish different results. Let your therapist know what your particular needs are, whether it be deep tissue, relaxation or something in between!
Lymphatic Drainage
The lymphatic system clears away infection and keeps your body's fluids in balance. If it's not working properly, fluid builds in your tissues and causes swelling, called lymphedema. Other lymphatic system problems can include infections, blockages, cancer, pregnancy and hypertension. Sometimes the system needs a little extra help to effectively cleanse the body of unwanted toxins. The goal of a lymphatic drainage massage is to give it a ‘reboot’, so it can work more efficiently. The entire body can benefit from lymphatic drainage massage, or the treatment can be area specific. Unlike traditional massage that utilizes downward pressure into the tissues, lymphatic drainage is very light and works on the lymphatic system that is directly below the skin. Your therapist will "pump" the fluids to their proper waste channels to be excreted and digested by the body. **Please note that this is NOT a massage
