Why should you be interested in Lymphatic Brushing?
Lymphatic Brushing isn’t fast fashion, a fad, or hyped wellness trend. It’s a tool that supports the science of the skin and natural filtration system of our body. It’s a gentle, pragmatic approach that “clears the clutter” and allows your skin and body to work better for you.
- Irrigate tissue, filter cellular waste, reduce cellulite
- Pain relief, post-operative, chronic
- Improve absorption of nutrients
- Reduce inflammation; expedite healing
- Support immune system
- Improve digestion; calm nervous system
- Decongest; reduce puffiness, edema
Caring for the inner function is a sustainable solution that gives us an opportunity to support our health and well-being with minimal cost and interference with our personal eco-system.
A minimal approach allows us to focus on what our skin needs and weed out what it doesn’t. This includes excess products and cure-alls that interfere, distract, and create additional stress that perpetuates the problem. Products should support the function of your skin routine, not be the foundation of it.
The Lymphatic Brush is not a dry brush, a make-up brush, or a cleansing brush. The patented design provides an easy, ergonomic and effective way to incorporate lymphatic drainage into your self-care face and body routines.
The Lymphatic Brush face and body self-care tutorials unlock the mysteries of manually manipulating the lymphatic system with easy-to-follow, step-by-step stress-free routines.
Cecily refers to it as the “lazy” way to healthy skin. The more you relax into each routine and allow the stress to drain from you, the better it works. When you relax and calm your mind, it has a trickle down effect that slows your breathing and balances your nervous system.
In turn, this will cause your vessel systems to expand, improving the flow of blood and fluids. Forget complicated routines and start simply by clearing the clutter and obstacles that interfere with the systems of the skin and their ability to protect, heal, hydrate, nourish and cleanse.
Necessity is the mother of all invention.
As the originator of the Gua Sha Facial Fusion continuing education course for Massage and Body Worker professionals, Cecily discovered that while you can use a Gua Sha Stone to imitate the intrinsic movements of manual lymphatic drainage, it takes special skill and education to learn the techniques and perform them correctly.
To add to the difficulty, performing the movements on yourself is a lot different and invariably more challenging than working on a client.
Naturally, you can use your hands to manually manipulate the lymphatic vessels but, it takes a deeper understanding of the pathways, and also plenty of patience to consistently gauge and apply the correct pressure throughout your routine.
Cecily designed a tool that’s easy to use and feels good, allowing everyone to experience the benefits of lymphatic drainage no matter your skill level. So, it can be done at home by you.
Let the tool do the work!
- A deeper understanding of the lymphatic system isn’t necessary; just follow the drainage pathways using a light touch and allow the brush to do the rest.
- If you are exhausted by complex and expensive skin and body care rituals, this tool is for you!
- No special skills or additional products required.
Your skin needs less than you think. Healthy, clear and vibrant skin is a reflection of how well its functioning on the inside, so restoring inner mobility is a necessity.
Lymphatic Drainage isn’t Gua sha or dry bushing.
Gua Sha and Dry Brushing are both intended to stimulate circulation, which has a direct effect on the lymphatic system. However, they are entirely different techniques that require different tools in order to honor and perform each of them correctly.
The intention and techniques are vastly different.
Gua Sha and Dry Brushing techniques increase blood flow and fluid into the tissue, this is why it's suggested to perform these routines in the morning.
Lymphatic drainage decreases excess fluid in the tissue.
The stimulating effect of Gua sha and dry brushing on the circulatory system changes the pressure of blood flow which sends more fluid into the tissue space to be processed by the lymphatic system.
If you want to reduce puffiness and swelling, you need to focus on reducing and removing the fluid from the tissue.
Your lymphatic system keeps the fluid surrounding your cells pristine by “clearing the clutter”, allowing nutrients to reach the cell without obstruction.
The Lymphatic Brush is designed to directly and gently affect the lymph vessel system, which sits just under the surface of the skin; therefore, a light, superficial touch is required in order to avoid compressing and suppressing their function.
