Lymphatic Therapies
WHAT IS THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM?
The lymphatic system, a crucial network of nodes, vessels, and immune cells, plays a vital role in cleansing the body by distributing and draining lymph fluid. This system supports immunity and is responsible for removing waste from cellular metabolism and toxins. When overworked and congested, the lymphatic system may accumulate toxins, risking inflammation and compromising immune function. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system lacks a pump and relies on muscle action for movement, making exercise essential. Our Lymphatic Massage treatments enhance lymphatic flow, addressing fluid retention, immune and skin health, cellulite, muscle and joint discomfort, among other benefits. Elevate your well-being with our holistic approach for optimal health.
The lymphatic system also works with the circulatory system to deliver nutrients, oxygen, and hormones from the blood to the cells that make up the tissues of the body. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system has no pump. It requires the action of surrounding skeletal muscle to keep things moving. In other words, exercise is vital for healthy lymph, Immune system function, and skin health.
Our Lymphatic Drainage Massage treatments aid in improving lymphatic flow fluid retention, immune and skin health, cellulite, achy muscles, and joints, plus many other benefits, providing you with optimal health.

COMPRESSION THERAPY
Normatec compression Therapy was designed and developed to aid in recovery after intense workouts for elite athletes. They do so much more than this, with amazing health benefits including promoting healthy blood and lymphatic flow and easing muscle fatigue and soreness from everyday activities.
Specific compression can increase circulation at all levels of the venous system, including deep veins, saphenous veins, superficial veins, and perforator veins, effectively removing metabolic waste faster than any traditional method of recovery or rest alone.
Let’s also not forget the mental health benefits of compression therapy. We will tuck you into your boots and cover your eyes with an eye pillow soaked in essential oils. As the session starts it will not take long for your body to shift into the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest).
The compression begins at your feet with the compression pulses moving up and down your legs, promoting intense relaxation, increasing venous return, and rapidly accelerating the body’s re-absorption of the elements that cause soreness and fatigue in the muscles while effectively removing metabolic waste. This treatment has benefits for everyone.
Normatec Compression Therapy works perfectly in conjunction with our other services, Lymphatic Massage and CryoSkin Treatments. Check out our packages and membership to use the treatment as often as you like. One thing is for sure, you will become addicted.
Frequently Asked Lymphatic Treatment Questions
What should I do to prepare for a session?
We recommend drinking adequate amounts of water before and after treatment to assist in detoxification. (6-8 glasses)
What can I expect during treatment?
This is a non-invasive body therapy where our therapists manually apply pressure to major parts of the body containing lymph nodes and may include work on the face, arms, chest/breasts, abdomen, and legs. Clients will be required to lie on a massage table with most clothes removed. (Don’t worry, we will always make sure you are appropriately draped throughout your session) Lights are dimmed, with relaxation music playing and essential oil diffusers, for a relaxing experience, you may even fall asleep.
How long is a session?
Depending on individual assessment, treatment required, and areas of concern, a session is approximately 60-80 when having compression therapy as well, in a combo. Lymphatic drainage massage alone can be 30-60 mins, again, depending on chosen treatment and individual areas of concern.
How many sessions should I have?
We recommend a session per week over a 5–6-week period for best results, with maintenance sessions thereafter for optimal health. Individual treatment plans can be tailored to suit your specific health goals and concerns, as your lymphatic system is as unique as you are. (Compression therapy can be used as often as you like.)
How will I feel after a session?
Most clients find our sessions to be very relaxing. However, everyone is unique, and responses may differ. Post-treatment, some clients- feel energized while some may need to rest. You may experience an increase in bladder and bowel movement or even a mild detox reaction as toxins are released through natural pathways, but this is temporary and will subside. We will always start off slowly in the beginning, to assess each individual response to detoxification, and adjust treatment as necessary.
How long do the detoxification effects and headaches last?
This is dependent on a few factors, such as: how toxic your body is, your overall health and diet. It is a temporary effect with wellness to look forward to. Upping your water intake will help to flush toxic and metabolic waste a lot quicker.
Will this help me to lose weight?
Weight loss and appearance to the skin can most definitely happen with treatment and consistent use of the glove and incorporating the sequence into your daily lifestyle. However, this is also dependent on your lifestyle, diet, and if you have a compromised lymphatic system. Consistency is key to the results you will see. If you are struggling, our Lymphatic Reboot Program is an excellent option, where you will be assisted with nutritional guidance and consultations all the way through to assess and help you set and achieve your weight loss and health goals, all while being fully supported.

Please consult your doctor before using if you suspect you may have - deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, (blood clot) edema, thrombophlebitis, inflammation of the skin, (cellulitis, erysipelas), ischemic vascular disease, severe peripheral neuropathy, or any other related issues.
Who is it good for?
Compression therapy is ideal for enhancing blood circulation and lymphatic flow, removing lactic acid, reducing swelling and inflammation, lymphedema, venous insufficiency, varicose veins, diabetes, surgery, injury, and prophylaxis. It is ideal for post-workout recovery.
