Our immune system is our body’s defense system – protecting us against infection and disease. It is closely linked to the lymphatic system, and they share several organs and physiological functions.
Our lymphatic system can become ‘clogged’ and weakened from several factors, such as: depression, stress, lifestyle choices (including alcohol, sugar, smoking), urban living and frequent travel, to name few. A comprised immune system can increase susceptibility to allergies, infectious diseases, and, cause serious health problems such as heart disease and cancer.
Symptoms of a poorly functioning lymphatic system can include allergies, fatigue, tired / heavy legs, recurrent or chronic infection / illness, UTI’s, digestive / stomach problems, diarrhea and many more.
The good news is that it’s never too early to be proactive and avoid a sluggish lymphatic system and boost your immunity! This is exactly why I created the Immunity Boost Massage to support my clients with a weakened immune system.
This exclusive treatment rejuvenates the immune system whether you’re recovering from illness (including cancer), have a demanding job, or simply want to maintain a healthy immune system. Beginning with a stimulating body brushing and followed by a full body massage using a strengthening aromatherapy blend combined with lymphatic drainage, Swedish massage and shiatsu techniques. Your body will be cleansed of accumulated toxins, blood will be purified and circulation improved to decongest and fortify organs. This supports the body’s natural defenses to provide superior protection against viruses and the stress of urban living.
Please note: All initial appoints are 85 minutes and include a body brush for clients to take home and continue the benefits of the treatment. Follow up appointments are 55 minutes. A course of 6 weekly treatments is recommended in conjunction with lifestyle recommendations to achieve best results.
