Tired, puffy, brain fog or frequent illness - your lymph nodes may need some TLC!

Did you know lymphatic flow plays a vital role in immune function and detoxification?

Lymph, a clear fluid that transports immune cells, waste products and toxins, is essential for maintaining internal balance. Unlike blood, which is pumped by the heart, lymph relies on body movement to circulate.

Lymph loves movement.

Stagnation can occur due to illness, sedentary behaviour, restrictive clothing, exposure to chemicals, food allergies or a lack of physical activity. However, because there are no direct or specific signs, lymphatic congestion can be difficult to identify.

Indicators that you may benefit from lymphatic support include persistent fatigue, tender lymph nodes, swelling, puffiness, brain fog or frequent illness.

I recommend these deep breathing, hydration, movement, exercise and dry brushing in my consultations. It’s not only about the food!
