Lymphatic drainage – activating the lymph for detoxification and a lighter body
Lymphatic drainage is a targeted treatment that stimulates the lymphatic system and supports the natural drainage of excess fluid from the body's tissues.
At Spa Resort Sanssouci in Karlovy Vary, we offer both manual and device-based forms of this effective therapy.
Course and effects of the treatment
Lymphatic drainage acts gently but systematically on the lymphatic vessels and nodes, and in doing so it:
- improves lymph flow and reduces swelling
- removes metabolites and excess fluid from the tissues
- improves the condition of the skin and subcutaneous tissue
- supports the immune system
- helps to calm the nervous system and relieve tension
Manual lymphatic drainage is performed by a trained therapist using special hand techniques.
Device-based lymphatic drainage uses compression sleeves with controlled pressure, applied alternately to selected parts of the body (e.g. the lower limbs).
We recommend lymphatic drainage for:
- swelling of the limbs and a feeling of heavy legs
- lymphatic circulation disorders
- post-traumatic and post-operative conditions
- chronic fatigue, cellulite and a sluggish metabolism
- water retention and detoxification
Contraindications
Lymphatic drainage is not suitable in cases of:
- acute infectious or inflammatory diseases
- unclear or active tumour conditions
- heart failure or deep vein thrombosis
- skin infections at the application site
Give your body a feeling of lightness and purity with care focused on inner balance.
