What’s a Lymphatic System and Why Should I Clean it?

The Lymphatic System is a part of our immune system and is made of white blood cells called lymphocytes and the interstitial fluid that bathe our cells to bring them nutrients and remove waste. Dry brushing is a way to stimulate all the above organs of detoxification because it provides a gentle internal massage.

Why is skin so important to detoxify?

The skin is the largest detoxifying organ and is sometimes called the “Third Kidney” and is responsible for 1/4 of the body’s daily detox. It receives 1/3 of all the blood circulated in the body. The skin is the last to receive nutrients and the FIRST place we see imbalance or deficiency. The skin also eliminates over one pound of waste acids per day through the sweat glands in the average adult.

What are the results I should expect?

Dry brushing cleans the lymphatic system and improves the over-all health and condition of your skin by:

• Removing dead skin layers – which makes your skin soother and softer-not to mention healthier! Dry skin is a sign of detoxification. Dry brushing helps shed skin cells which can help improve skin texture and cell renewal.
• Strengthen the Immune System by stimulating the lymphatic system to move the toxins and increase lymph flow to move the Macrophage (White Blood Cells) thoroughly through your body.
• May reduce the duration of infection and accelerate the clearing of toxins
• Stimulates the Hormone and Oil Glands, which helps to eliminate dry skin
• Tightens the skin by increasing the flow of blood which in turn moves toxins and lessens the appearance of cellulite (our bodies produce a new layer of skin every 24 hours) so skin brushing helps to remove the top layer allowing the new layer to come to the surface resulting in softer skin
• Tones muscles- helps to rid the muscles of lactic acid that can cause muscle soreness after a workout, yard work, etc.
• Helps with muscle tone by stimulating the nerve endings, which causes the individual muscle fibers to activate and move.
• Stimulates Circulation
• Helps with digestion
