Detox Massage and its Benefits

What is a Detox Massage
Detox Massage is great for detoxification, fatigue and general well-being. The Lymphatic System has no
pump, its nourishing, water balancing eliminative functions are dependant upon muscle contractions, diaphramic
breathing and body movements. It is common to develop a somewhat sluggish lymphatic flow from inactivity,
consumption of inappropriate food and beverages and reduced water intake.
All these factors stress the Lymphatic System.
Detox Massage is a light technique designed to stimulate the circulation of lymph to speed up the removal
of wastes from all over the body. It works wonderfully on the nervous system by reducing sympathetic activity,
stimulating the defense of the immune system and increasing the flow and volume of lymph fluid.
Why have a Detox Massage
Toxicity is a real health issue. We ingest toxins from food and air. Toxins may be a bi-products of stress,
inflammation or a poor lifestyle. We may also be affected by environmental contamination such as lead/heavy
metals either inhaled directly or ingested after being deposited on crops, water and soil.
One of the major symptoms of chemical toxicity seems to be a breakdown of the immune function, which
encourages all kinds of symptoms in the body:
headaches muscle and joint pain fatigue
abdominal bloating heartburn irritability
allergies, hives etc depression flu-like symptoms
