What is a Detox Massage?

The Wellness coach at LotusLight Wellness would help patients improve their health by offering services like Massage therapy, Yoga, and meditation. The massage therapy offered can help patients remove toxins from their bodies and thus improve their health. This type of massage is known as a detox massage.

What is a Detox Massage?

A detox massage is a massage done on the body to help get rid of toxins through the lymphatic system. In the human body, the lymphatic system performs the important function of removing toxins and other wastes. When the lymphatic system works well, the body is able to naturally get rid of toxins. Due to low immunity or other problems, the lymphatic system working may be affected. This can lead to toxins being built up in the body causing a number of health issues.

A Detox massage would help in stimulating the lymphatic system. It thus helps in getting rid of toxins in a natural way. The objective of the detox massage is to ensure lymph drainage. The massage leads to the production of white blood cells that helps in removing toxins at the tissue level. These toxins are then destroyed at the lymph nodes.

Benefits of a Detox Massage

When you get a detox massage done by an expert massage therapist, you can experience multiple benefits. These include:

  • All forms of toxins that have clogged the body can be eliminated by carrying out a detox massage or lymphatic drainage massage. The stimulation of the lymphatic system ensures this process is carried out naturally. The removal of toxins helps in restoring wellness and can treat various ailments that a patient suffers from.

  • When the lymphatic system is stimulated, it helps in preventing toxins from building up in the future.

  • Detox massage helps in relaxing the muscles and also strengthens them. This helps in releasing tension in the muscles that cause pain and stiffness.

  • An important benefit of a detox massage is that it helps improve circulation. This ensures all tissues in the body get nutrients and oxygen.

  • It provides relief from stress. Anyone who is tired and feeling drained out due to work pressure or stress can experience wonderful benefits through a detox massage.

How is the Detox massage carried out?

The detox massage is done to massage the lymph nodes in the body with the objective of stimulating their effective functioning. This is achieved by doing a light massage. The massage done is through rhythmic hand movements. It is a deep tissue massage that helps the body to heal naturally.

The massage therapist would start the massage on the neck and then move downwards. The therapist knows where the lymph nodes are located and would work on those areas. The areas targeted are the neck, the region behind the air, the armpits, and the groin region. Apart from these areas, the back and other areas are also massaged. Gentle pressure is exerted with relaxed hand movements. The therapist does not press hard. The patient is advised to do breathing exercises and once the massage is over extra fluid consumption is advised.
