Lymphatic drainage
The lymphatic system is our ECOSYSTEM. Its functional basis is the circulation of water, which makes up 60-70% of our body weight.
It is divided into water inside and outside the cells, which is still divided into blood (blood plasma), tissue fluid and lymph.
The lymphatic system begins with a lymph vessel that contains lymph. Lymph is the main transport route for white blood cells, which are the main fighters against infections and other pathogens. Lymph also contains proteins, fats and other products of metabolism.
Its immune function is closely related to the drainage-transport function of the lymphatic system. White blood cells are formed in the organs of the lymphatic system and lymph nodes, which are the basis of the body's immune reactions.
Lymph gradually drains from the lymphatic capillaries to the lymph tubes. Along the lymph tubes, there are lymph nodes in which the fight against various infections as well as tumor cells takes place.
The entire lymphatic system ends near the heart, where it flows into the superior vena cava. Lymph nodes are found to a large extent in places of important transport nodes, through which various pathogens can spread from the periphery (arms, legs, head) to internal organs.
The main problem of today's population is lack of movement and unhealthy lifestyle. It is necessary to activate the slowed down lymphatic system in order to help and enable the organism to cleanse itself.
In the case of dysfunction, it is necessary to first determine the diagnosis, and then a combination of different methods to lead to long-term improvement.
These methods include the use of drainage devices, where it is very important to take care to use certified devices from leading manufacturers that guarantee safe use.
LYMPH DRAINAGE
The lymphatic system consists of lymph, lymph vessels, lymph nodes and lymphatic organs. This system has no "motor" or "drive", no "pump", it is driven by muscle activity, breathing, negative pressure.
Due to the modern, "sedentary" lifestyle where we move a little, the lymphatic system suffers and does not function properly. The lymphatic system is the main immune and detoxifying mechanism of our organism.
Lymphatic drainage is a procedure whose goal is to return the lymphatic system to "fitness" and increase its functionality.
The lymphatic system is different from the blood system, and lymphatic drainage is superficial drainage, not the same as a classic deep muscle massage.
Who is it recommended for?
It is recommended for people who sit or stand for a long time at work, which prevents the lymphatic system from circulating lymph in the body.
It is recommended for people who travel often and suffer from the "heavy legs" syndrome, as well as for those who exercise regularly and actively.
