What is Lymphatic Drainage
The lymphatic system is an essential part of the immune system, responsible for removing toxins, excess fluids, and waste from the body. The lymphatic system does not have its own pump, relying instead on muscle movement and manual stimulation to function effectively. At FITCLINIC, we provide lymphatic drainage therapy using a specialized massage technique that employs gentle, rhythmic movements to encourage lymphatic fluid flow, reduce swelling, and improve circulation.
