Lymphatic System
Lymphatic

Nodes and
Vessels)
What is Lymphatic Drainage
Therapy (LDT)
The proper functioning of lymphatic
system is critical to the body’s ability to
detoxify and regenerate
tissues, filter out toxins and
foreign substances,
and maintain a healthy
immune system.
Lymphatic
System has
no pump so it needs manual stimulation (drainage).
LDT
is a method of stimulating your
lymph and body fluids that
will help cleanse your body,
eliminate toxins, death cells, some immature cells,
foreign substances and moving excess and trapped proteins
from the tissues and preventing the formation of fibrotic tissue,
it improves lymph circulation in a certain area. Manual lymph drainage
helps to reduce blockage, by creating alternate passages for the lymph flow.
Manually
assessing of rhythm,
direction, depth and
quality of the lymph flow usually
gives accurate information
concerning your lymphatic system, and then the
lymph must be sent to the
group of nodes responsible for
filtrate and drainage.
LDT that can be used by trained
therapists for specific conditions and indications relating to
breast care.
To promote the LDT found in most other body tissues, fluid has a tendency to
accumulate in the breast. The light-touch specific approach of
LDT provides an ideal solution to
fluid stagnation.
Lymphatic vessels and nodes in the female breast.
Breast Lymphedema and LDT The most common cause of breast lumps is fibrocystic breast disease. In this illness, one or more fluid-filled masses form as cysts, causing recurrent flare-up of tender lumps in one or both breast, caused by Wearing bras, Breast implants and silicone…… restricts circulation in the lymph vessels. Probably no other disease strikes as much fear in the
hearts of people than cancer. The
number of death due to cancer in this country has doubled every 30 years. Breast cancer
is most common in women over forty, Post-menopausal, and overweight women
have the highest risk. Estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) may slightly
increase the risk of breast cancer after long time use. In general, the risk
of recurrence rises with increasing tumor size and
lymph node involvement.
The lymph circulates through
the body tissues transporting debris, toxins and
abnormal cells from tissue to the lymph nodes. Consequently,
lymph backs up, and backs up, and backs up, and finally in some people
it settles in the breasts lymph nodes, if it is not drain out from the
breast lymph nodes.
The good news
is that breast cancer can often be cured
if it is detected early by your medical doctor. Today in Europe,
lymphatic drainage is commonly used in hospitals, is prescribed by M.D.s,
and is reimbursed by insurance. Swollen
lymph nodes in the “Neck, Armpits or Groin” can be by many illnesses.
There are various types of
lymph edema which LDT
can help:
o
Surgery, biopsy,
Surgical removal of lymph nodes
o
Radiation therapy, High
acidity in body
o
Cancer:
Brest cancer, lymphoma, pelvic, prostate cancer, and metastasis
o
Parasites (filariasis),
infection.
o
Chronic Inflammation,
Burns, traumas.
o
Chronic venous
condition.
o
Medication, silica
dust, heavy metal toxin accumulated in tissue.
And lymphatic drainage is one of the main medical indications.
Cellulite
is a common superficial pocket of
trapped fat, which cause uneven dimpling or “orange
peel” skin. Lymph Drainage for Cellulite Treatment This unique drainage technique
designed to break down fatty deposits under the skin (cellulite) and boost
the immune system.

Pre - & Post-
Surgical Patients
can benefit from lymphatic drainage. The main actions
of LDT are to stimulate the circulation of the lymphatic flow and,
indirectly, the blood; the immune system (the humoral as well as the
cellular immunity), and the autonomic nervous system (The parasympathetic
nervous system provides relaxation and antispastic effect)
is compromised.
