​

CAN MANUAL LYMPHATIC MASSAGE LONDON HELP ME TO LOSE WEIGHT?

 

Manual lymphatic massage London benefits weight loss, but perhaps not in the direct way you expect. Massage is well known to help with detoxification, and detoxing the body can very well produce weight loss. 

 

With the thousands of toxins that we eat, breathe and absorb, our lymphatic system becomes sluggish which causes our metabolism to be sluggish, leading to weight gain. Manual lymphatic drainage helps to increase metabolic rate and supports the Liver and Kidney, which are necessary for weight loss because these two organs are responsible for removing toxins. By releasing built-up toxins, the body recharges, and it directs energy and blood flow to fat cells.

​

Manual lymphatic massage London won’t result in automatically weight loss, but it can effectively support and enhance a healthy weight loss program. If you’re focusing on a healthy lifestyle and want to create an optimum internal system, then lymphatic drainage massage is a great way to support this. 

​

In addition, it helps lessen the lethargic approach of a person brought on by too much starchy, high-fat foods and too little workout. With greater vitality, you are more likely to go for that run and have a more positive attitude, and finally, manage to stick to your weight loss strategy!

 

​

6) RELAX DEEPLY

 

Manual lymphatic massage London uses gentle and soothing strokes which create a blissful relaxing feeling. Massage has been proven to reduce cortisol levels – the body’s stress-response hormone – in the body by up to 31%, on average, therefore it is a great natural remedy for stress reduction. 

 

 

7) HELP PREGNANT AND LACTATING MUMS WITH SWELLING

​

Manual lymphatic massage London is a very effective treatment to reduce swollen legs and ankles

during/after pregnancy. POSTPARTUM oedema (or swelling) happens because the body has naturally been retaining fluid to help the body prepare for childbirth, which it then eliminates after the baby is born. Almost all women experience at least mild swelling after they give birth and their body re-adjusts its fluid levels.

Postnatal massage can reduce swelling after delivery as Manual lymphatic massage London speeds up the removal of excess fluid.
