Description
This course introduces students to the art of lymphatic work. Lymphatic Drainage Massage can benefit those who suffer from allergies, have had recent surgery, suffer from edema, or are consciously toning and detoxing their bodies. It is a valuable addition to the “menu” of the massage therapist working in a therapeutic or spa environment. Applying lymphatic drainage uses a brushing technique to stimulate lymphatic flow and drainage. This technique may be used independently, or in conjunction with bodywork techniques to create a client-centered approach. Facial Rejuvenation: a specialized lymphatic protocol for the face and neck; incorporates Facial Acupressure to work with acupressure points & meridians to clear blockages caused by emotional/physical stress.
