Lympatic System -
'Transportation Highway' for the immune and repair functions of the body!

The lymphatic system is a complicated network of vessels, ducts, and nodes that moves fluid between the cells and tissues, and produces and distributes the infection fighting and scavenging cells of the body. It feeds literally every tissue and organ. Though less well known than the blood circulation, it is truly another circulatory system that compliments and feeds the blood. When functioning properly it effectively cleanses the tissues, aids in cellular repair, and elimintes toxins. As a circulatory system, optimal flow must be maintained within the lymphatic system. Unlike the blood, whose circulation is driven by the pumping of the heart, the lymph does not have its own pump.
It is propelled by three means: 1. The movement of muscles
2. The nerves which create subtle pulsations
3. The fluid pressure within the system
Lymph fluid is cleansed by the liver, kidneys and heart. It eliminates its toxic load through the elimination channels of the body - urine, bowel, skin and lungs.
If conditions lead to sluggish lymph flow, fluid can concentrate in specific areas (oedema), or impaired function along the entire lymph system can result (congestion). When this state of congestion is long lasting, blockages can form and cause a backup in the flow of lymphatic fluid. Consequently, toxic cellular waste cannot be released from the body as a whole or from specific areas such as injury sites. Thus, the immune system may not function at is optimum.
Lymphatic congestion can occur from everyday life stressors:
Illness tight-fitting clothing (including bras, ties) Bumps, bruises & other injuries Impaired circulation Poor diet
Stress Surgery (scar tissue & adhesions) Hormone imbalance Food allergies/sensitivites Normal aging
Take the Lymph Test
- Do you suffer from frequent headaches or migraines?
- Do you feel tired, run down, sluggish or stressed?
- Do you suffer from fluid retention, oedema or lymphoedema?
- Do you get recurrent colds and sinus infections?
- Do you suffer from irritable bowel or constipation?
- Do you gain weight easily or find it hard to lose?
- Do you suffer from poor circulation?
- Do you have cellulite?
- Do you have muscle or joint pain?
- Do you have tender breats or breast lumps?
- Do you have strong body odout?
If you suffer from two or more of the above, your body is showing signs of congestion and you may benefit from Lymphatic Enhancement Therapy.
