LYMPHATIC   DRAINAGE

The  Lymphatic  System  IS  the  healing  process

The lymphatic system is incredibly important when looking at overall health and optimum funtioning on all levels.

What  is  Lymph ?

It is a clear to white fluid made of  White Blood Cells, especially Lymphocytes,  which are the cells that attack bacteria in the blood and body tissues and Chyle which contains fats and proteins.

What is the Lymphatic System?

This is our body's  'sewerage system'.  It maintains fluid levels in our body tissues by removing all fluids that leak out of our blood vessels.  It is important for the optimal funtioning of our general and specific immune responses.  It protects our body from illness-causing invaders, maintaining body fluid levels, absorbing digestive tract fats and removing cellular waste.  

The lymphatic system is part of the immune system.  It will defend the body against infections and is the first line of defence against disease.  Lymphatic vessels, tissues, organs and glands work together to drain the watery fluid called lymph from throughout the body.

Main  Roles

*  reacting to bacteria    *  dealing with cancer cells    *managing the fluid levels in the body

*  dealing with cell products that otherwise would result in disease or disorders

*  absorbing some of the fats in our diet from the intestine
