Lymphatic massage, also known as lymphatic drainage massage, is a technique that uses light, rhythmic strokes to stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. The massage helps to increase lymph flow, reduce swelling, and boost immune function. It is often used to treat conditions such as lymphedema, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome. The therapist typically uses gentle, circular movements to stimulate the lymph nodes and encourage lymphatic flow.
