Real results achieved through my BLD hand therapy technique
Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage is a specialized massage technique that focuses on stimulating the lymphatic system to promote detoxification, reduce inflammation, and improve overall wellness.
Originating from Brazil, this treatment uses gentle, rhythmic movements to encourage lymphatic flow, which helps the body eliminate waste and excess fluid. It is particularly renowned for its ability to enhance body contouring, reduce swelling, and promote relaxation.
The importance of the Lymphatic System
The Lymphatic system is crucial to support our immune system and help us fight infections and diseases! It is vital for maintaining health by supporting fluid balance, immune defence and nutrient absorption, as well as transporting toxins to the kidneys where they will be removed from the body when we urinate.
