F.I.T Member Lucy, who many of your members will know from the studio, has this week launched a new Lymphatic Drainage business just in time for the party season – which will beneficial for our longevity community in the Wimbledon area. www.lucyaskewlymphatics.co.uk
What is the Lymphatic system
The lymphatic system comprises a network of lymph vessels, ducts, nodes, and tissues located beneath the skin, (around 700) operating as the body’s essential waste management system, albeit a somewhat unappealing analogy. Its primary function is to eliminate “waste” from the body, encompassing toxins, bacteria, and excess fluids. The lymph, essentially an accumulation of surplus fluids, flows through arteries and tissues, serving as a cleaning agent before directing these materials through the lymphatic system for disposal.
Remarkably, the lymphatic system lacks a built-in pump to propel lymph throughout the body, relying instead on our muscular actions to sustain fluid movement. Consequently, any form of manual “drainage” (yes, the rubbish disposal metaphor is quite vivid) is to facilitate the movement of lymph to lymph nodes for the elimination of toxins and bacteria. It remains a vital component of the body’s overall health.
