A Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a technique that is used to gently flush extra lymphatic fluid out of the affected areas in your body, and towards your lymph nodes. The objective of this massage is to decrease and control your swelling, avoid swelling in the body from getting worse and to reduce infections. The technique of this massage causes small capillaries to become accessible by opening and closing. This leads to the  reabsorption of lymph from the tissues in return to the lymphatic vessels.
