If you walk into a lymphatic drainage massage expecting a heavy, deep-tissue knot-busting session, you’re in for a surprise. In fact, if a therapist pushes too hard during a lymphatic massage, they’re doing it wrong.
The fluid pathways of your lymph system sit directly beneath the surface of your skin. Because these vessels are incredibly delicate, heavy pressure actually collapses them, stopping fluid in its tracks. Instead, lymphatic drainage uses incredibly light, rhythmic, pump-like strokes that gently stretch the skin in the direction of your lymph nodes.
By guiding this stagnant fluid toward the body’s natural filtration centers, the massage helps your body flush out toxins through your natural elimination systems. You’ll walk off the table feeling an immediate lightness, notice a more sculpted jawline or waist, and—fair warning—you’ll probably need to run straight to the restroom!
