What Is Lymphatic Massage and Its Health Benefits?
Introduction
The lymphatic system is a crucial part of the body’s immune defense, responsible for removing toxins, excess fluids, and waste. When the lymphatic system slows down, it can lead to swelling, fatigue, or compromised immunity. Lymphatic massage, also known as manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), is a therapeutic technique designed to stimulate lymph flow, reduce swelling, and promote overall wellness.
At White Esnad, we provide professional lymphatic massage services at home, ensuring privacy, comfort, and safe care for patients recovering from surgery, managing chronic conditions, or simply seeking wellness.
