Lymphatic Drainage for Allergies
Spring is here! With the snow melting quickly, spring allergies are just around the corner. Runny noses, sinus congestion and watery eyes, really put a damper on the excitement we feel to finally be done with winter.
Boost your immune system:
Yes, there’s over the counter medication to take, but did you know that you can help boost your immune system naturally? Lymphatic Drainage helps stimulate your immune system. When you have an allergic reaction, your body produces antibodies to fight the invaders (pollen) which then leads the body to produce histamines that cause your runny nose, watery eyes and other symptoms.
How lymphatic drainage can help:
The lymphatic system when stimulated will be better prepared to handle the influx of histamines and help flush them through your system faster. Also clearing any lingering congestion before the season starts will help prevent those areas from getting worse when the body reacts to the allergens.
When to book a Lymphatic Drainage session:
The best strategy to deal with allergies is to be proactive and have your immune system stimulated before the allergy season starts. Book a 30-minute session to boost your immune system today or have lymphatic drainage added into your 60- or 90-minute massage.
If you are already experiencing allergy symptoms, you might want to wait a week or two to have a lymphatic drainage massage. Because, having lymphatic drainage at the peak of your reaction will initially add more fluid for the system to process while it’s already working hard, which may make symptoms worse before they get better.
