How to tell if you need lymphatic drainage?

I have found that most people don’t know what the lymphatic system is nonetheless how to tell if they are in need of a lymphatic drainage. So I decided to address this to simplify the answer. The easiest way to describe the lymphatic system is to tell you it’s the body’s trash can and if left full by the clean up crew, it becomes clogged. The lymphatic system consists of vessels, lymph nodes and organs that work together to facilitate flow of lymph and the removal of waste products from it and then direct the waste products to organs that do the heavy lifting by flushing them out of the body. However, if the lymphatic system is disrupted or not working properly, you can get a build up of lymphatic fluid and toxins which can build up in your tissues and can ultimately put your body at risk for developing various different kinds of diseases. This brings me to the question, “How to tell if you need lymphatic drainage?” Most people don’t know they need lymphatic drainage because the symptoms can seem harmless until you start to experience a cluster of them and the symptoms become chronic. At this point, it can be a signal that your body is on toxin overload! These symptoms may include chronic/persistent tiredness, stiffness, joint pain, swollen lymph nodes, excess weight, bloating, brain fog, skin problems, digestive problems and most common swelling of the extremities including your fingers and so much more. Surely, we have all had one or more of these symptoms but when these symptoms begin to affect your day to day life, it is time to “empty the trash”.
