How to Optimize Your Lymphatic System
Why Does the Lymphatic System Matter?
Did you know that the lymphatic system is the most important (yet most overlooked) system of the human body? The lymphatic system plays an integral role in immune function. In fact, most say that it is the body's first line of defense against disease and infection. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels and nodes that transports and filters lymph fluid. This fluid contains a variety of components, including your body's defenses: antibodies and lymphocytes, along with potential pathogens and foreign invaders.
Lymph fluid behaves a lot like blood does, with one major exception: the lymphatic system does not have a pumping mechanism like the circulatory system. In other terms, lymph can become stagnant, and toxins can accumulate within this fluid, ultimately causing a myriad of health issues. In order to optimize the lymphatic system and prevent complications from stagnant or blocked lymph fluid, one must manually stimulate the system. This is where Lymphatic Drainage comes in.
What is Lymphatic Drainage?
Because the lymphatic system does not have a pumping mechanism like the circulatory system, it has to be manually stimulated to maintain optimal functioning. Lymphatic Drainage at huemn is FDA-approved, and the key benefits include:
Flushes Toxins + Metabolic Waste: we ALL have toxins inside of our bodies. While the idea of accumulating environmental toxins and metabolic waste isn't ideal, it is especially concerning when we consider how much of a burden this waste may be when trying to ward off illnesses. Stimulating the lymphatic system through Lymphatic Drainage aids in the flushing of these toxins, which can help keep your body healthy and strong.
Stimulates the Immune System: increasing lymphatic flow throughout the body allows for the lymphatic system to work as designed. As described above, the lymphatic system is the body's first line of defense against potential invaders, so when this system is functioning optimally, the body's immune system benefits greatly.
Enhances Cellular Health: an optimized lymphatic system yields optimized cellular health. Lymphatic Drainage facilities in cellular oxygenation, thereby facilitating in cellular proliferation. Cells die without oxygen, so keeping oxygen levels high in the body eliminates the risk of cell death and system failure.
How Does our Lymphatic Drainage System Work?
Our FDA-approved system contains two patent-protected, specialized garments containing 24 overlapping chambers that work to target every inch of the body. The chambers inflate sequentially, and the wave-like massage motion increases blood flow to the massaged zones, all while removing lingering waste products that age our skin and tissues. Sessions last 30 minutes or 60 minutes, depending on your goals and time constraints.
