The lymph nodes are gently massaged, using light thumb pressure and gentle pressured movements to drain toxins and fluid from the tissues within the body. The cleansing and detoxifying effect of lymphatic massage occurs as a result of toxins and waste products being literally squeezed and flushed out as muscles are massaged by the therapist.

After each treatment, the client is left feeling revitalised, refreshed and relaxed.
