DRY SKIN BRUSHING ⭐️
supports lymphatic drainage and clearance, to support immune system, support circulatory system, reduce inflammation. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels in the body that carries lymph (immune fighting cells) through the body, promoting detoxification and removal of toxic wastes.
Dry skin brushing is not vigorous exfoliating, this treatment only requires gentle circular motions to be effective. It is normal for the skin to turn a gentle pink/ flushed colour.
Do not brush over any skin irritations, burns, open wounds, sun burn, rashes
Method:
~ using small circular motions brush following the lymph channel drainage patterns
~ begin from extremities moving inward and upward toward the heart where lymph fluid can re-enter the bloodstream following circulatory system
~ takes 15-20 minutes
~ firstly brush the nodes into which an area drains into, to open them ready for adequate clearance, 7 circular motions of the armpits and groin
~ Open the armpits, followed by working the hands, wrists, arms, chest, back, sides of trunk all towards the armpits
~ Open the groin (inner/ upper thigh), followed by the feet, legs, buttocks all towards the groin
~ lastly the abdomen, bushing in circular motions following a clockwise direction following the large intestine
