Acupuncture, Acupressure & Cupping Are Your Best Allies for Lymph Flow

Acupuncture, acupressure and cupping are some of your most powerful tools in keeping toxins going out and nutrients coming in with the proper healthy flow. These treatments activate the body’s healthy energy and entice more toxins to move out. Our acupuncture and acupressure treatments have a lymph drainage function to assist in good flow. When proper flow is restored, any symptoms you’re experiencing will go away. Studies have shown that toxins will actually leave through the acupuncture meridians stimulated during treatment. And anyone who has received acupuncture knows what it feels like to have a point with a lot of blockage stimulated, where the circulation starts moving better. When a more serious lymphatic issue is present, I will work on particular channels such as the spleen and stomach channels to help the body recover.

The Importance of Lymph Flow in a Healthy Body

You always want your body to have a healthy balance of good nutrients coming in and waste going out. Every cell in our body releases metabolic waste products into, and takes up nutrients from, a surrounding solution called the extracellular fluid. Cellular nourishment and efficiency depend on how fast and how completely waste material is removed from this fluid. If energy blockages or blood stagnation prevent those toxins from leaving the system, there’s no room for more good nutrients to enter. And that’s what an unhealthy body feels like.
