Benefits of Lymphatic Facial Massage
If you love getting body massages, why not give it a try on your face! Many people swear by the results of lymphatic facial massage, but what is it?
When you use light pressure combined with specific motions you're performing lymphatic massage.
Your lymphatic system mirrors your circulatory system and helps your body bring good vibes (manage fluid balance, fight infection, and deliver nutrients) to hard working cells and take away the bad ones (toxins and impurities).
Just like your circulatory systems uses blood, the lymphatic system uses lymph. Lymph contains oxygen, glucose, amino acids, and other vital nutrients, feeding our cells and helping them function.
Research has shown a link between sagging skin and impaired lymphatic function, but more research needed to clinically prove all of the benefits of lymphatic massage.
If you have sensitive skin, inflamed acne, or any other skin health concerns, speak to your health care provider before getting started.
