lymphatic drainage
This ayurvedic treatment consists of a powerful and vigorous massage which helps decrease inflammation, shed water weight, boost immunity, and tone the body. In ayurveda, the lymphatic system is the most important system in the body and viewed as the river of life. Lymph fluid, referred to as “Rasa” in ayurveda, must flow freely in order for optimal health to be possible.
When this flow is prevented or blocked our immune system becomes more susceptible to disease, our digestive system gets backed up and our mental clarity diminishes. This treatment aims to promote a healthy rasa flow and encourage elimination of lymph fluid in the body.
