What is lymphatic drainage?

Lymphatic drainage is a form of detoxification that reduces excess lymphatic fluid buildup from the body. Your lymph system is part of the immune system consisting of lymph ducts, lymph nodes, lymph vessels, and organs. Lymph fluid within the body helps remove foreign materials and bacteria. 

The Duo Dental Spa team has years of experience completing lymphatic drainage compression therapy and uses innovative methods to restore your health and well-being.

What does lymphatic drainage consist of?

Duo Dental Spa offers an array of treatments that reinforce lymph fluid drainage. The team may suggest lymphatic detox as part of an acne treatment regimen. It often involves a specialized type of compression therapy which can reduce the swelling associated with medical treatments, illnesses, or other conditions that negatively affect lymphatic system function.

What are the benefits of lymphatic drainage?

The main benefits of undergoing lymphatic drainage include:

• Reduced swelling in your arms and legs
• Less pain
• Improved body detoxification
• Faster healing
• More energy
• Reduced arthritis symptoms
• Improved symptoms of fibromyalgia
• Reductions in chronic venous insufficiency 
• Diminished excess fat accumulation (lipedema)

The procedure treats lymphedema, which can affect women recovering from breast cancer surgery.

What happens during lymphatic drainage?

During lymphatic drainage treatments, your specialist uses compression treatment to reduce and control swelling caused by a build up of lymph fluid (lymphoedema).

Compression therapy puts pressure on the swelling area and encourages lymph fluid movement around the lymph vessels. The pressure needs to be even but firm in the swollen area.

Lymphatic drainage compression therapy can also help control pain caused by swelling.

What should I expect after undergoing lymphatic drainage?

After each treatment, which often lasts about 60 minutes, you may feel more relaxed. As your body flushes out toxins over time, you’ll begin feeling better with fewer bothersome symptoms. Drink plenty of water to reduce the detoxification process further.

Your Duo Dental Spa specialist lets you know when to schedule your next treatment session to ensure a superior outcome. A series of treatments often provide the most benefit.
