Lymphatic Massage in Guildford, Surrey

Experience gentle, rhythmic lymphatic drainage in Guildford to boost your immune system and detoxification.

This specialised massage uses light, skin-stretching techniques to encourage lymph flow, reduce swelling, and promote overall well-being. Support your body's natural cleansing process with our expert therapists.

During a session, our skilled therapists will use light, feather-like touches and slow, wave-like movements. The aim is to gently stimulate the lymphatic system, encouraging the movement of lymph fluid towards the lymph nodes, where it can be filtered. The massage typically starts by opening the lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, and groin to create a pathway for drainage.

Many find lymphatic drainage massage deeply relaxing. While the pressure is light, the effects can be significant, potentially reducing fluid retention, supporting the body's natural detoxification processes, and even contributing to a feeling of lightness and well-being. Book a session to gently nudge your body's natural cleansing process.

REDUCE SWELLING

Lymphatic drainage massage reduces swelling by gently encouraging the movement of lymph fluid away from congested areas. By promoting this flow, lymphatic drainage helps to alleviate the buildup of fluid that causes swelling, often associated with injury, surgery, or certain medical conditions. Think of it as gently encouraging a blocked drain to clear.

DETOXIFICATION

Lymphatic drainage massage aids detoxification by stimulating the flow of lymph, which is the body's natural waste removal system. By enhancing lymphatic circulation, the massage helps the body more efficiently remove unwanted waste substances, supporting overall detoxification processes.

IMPROVE CIRCULATION

Lymphatic drainage massage indirectly aids circulation. 1 By reducing fluid buildup and swelling, it eases pressure on blood vessels, potentially improving blood flow. The gentle stimulation of lymphatic vessels can also have a subtle positive effect on overall fluid movement in the body.

“It was the most amazing treatment and I loved Willow so much.”

WHAT TO EXPECT

During a lymphatic drainage massage appointment at our Guildford clinic, you can typically expect a gentle and relaxing experience. Here's what usually happens:

  1. Consultation: Your therapist will likely start with a brief discussion about your health history and any specific concerns you have, such as swelling or detoxification goals.

  2. Preparation: You'll lie comfortably on a massage table, and the therapist may use light oil or lotion. Unlike deep tissue massage, the touch in lymphatic drainage is very light.

  3. Gentle Techniques: The therapist will use very light, rhythmic, skin-stretching movements in specific patterns. These movements follow the natural pathways of your lymphatic system to encourage the flow of lymph fluid towards your lymph nodes. The pressure is usually no more than the weight of a coin.

  4. Focus Areas: The massage often starts with clearing the lymph nodes in key areas like the neck, armpits, and groin to create a better flow. The therapist will then work on the areas where you are experiencing congestion.

  5. Relaxing Atmosphere: The treatment is generally very calming, and many people find it quite soothing. You might even feel a little sleepy.

  6. Post-Massage: After the massage, you may feel lighter or notice a reduction in swelling. It's often recommended to drink plenty of water to help your body flush out toxins.
