✨ Why I spend so much time on the neck ✨

The neck is one of the most overlooked areas of the body yet it’s one of the most important when it comes to tension, swelling, facial health, and how relaxed we truly feel.

A tight neck rarely exists on its own.
It often shows up as jaw pain or clenching, headaches, facial tension, shoulder tightness, shallow breathing, and that constant feeling of holding everything together.

From a lymphatic perspective, this area is key.

Most of the lymphatic fluid from the face, head, and upper body drains through the neck. When this area is tight, congested, or restricted, lymph flow can slow down leading to puffiness, fluid retention, heaviness in the face and neck, and a feeling of stagnation in the body.

The jaw and neck are also deeply connected.
When the neck is holding tension, the jaw often compensates clenching without us even realising, especially during stress or emotional overload. Over time, this can contribute to jaw discomfort, facial tightness, and even headaches.

That’s why I slow right down here.

Gentle lymphatic drainage and soft tissue work through the neck helps open these pathways, encourage healthy fluid movement, and reduce congestion. As the lymph begins to move, muscles can soften, circulation improves, and the nervous system starts to settle.

When the neck releases, the jaw can ease.
The face can depuff.
The shoulders can drop.
Breathing becomes deeper and fuller.
And the body receives the message that it’s safe to relax.

This work isn’t rushed or forceful.
It’s slow, intentional, and supportive allowing the body to unwind naturally rather than being pushed to let go.

Because true healing and relaxation begin when the body feels listened to.

When we talk about lymphatic drainage, most people think of the stomach or the face

but the legs play one of the biggest roles in how well the whole body can detox and feel lighter.

Before we even reach the legs, we always begin centrally opening the pathways at the neck, chest and abdomen.
This step creates the “space” the lymphatic system needs so fluid from the limbs can move upward without resistance.

Once the central pathways are prepared, working through the legs becomes incredibly powerful.

The legs hold major lymphatic vessels, and when these areas become sluggish, you’ll often notice:

• heavy or tired legs
• swelling around the ankles and knees
• bloating through the lower belly
• overall puffiness
• fluid that feels “stuck”

Supporting the legs after the core pathways are open helps the whole system flow better.
Clients often stand up feeling lighter, more energised, and visibly less swollen, not just in the legs, but throughout the body.

Healthy lymph flow in the legs contributes to:
✨ reduced inflammation
✨ improved circulation
✨ better digestion
✨ hormonal balance
✨ a calmer, clearer sense of wellbeing

It’s never “just the legs.”
They’re a vital part of a full body lymphatic rhythm and when we support them properly, the entire system feels the shift.

Your menstrual cycle changes more than just your mood,
it shifts the entire rhythm of your lymphatic system.

In the days leading up to your period, your body naturally holds onto more fluid. Hormones like progesterone slow the movement of lymph, which means waste, excess fluid, and inflammation don’t clear as easily. This is why you may feel puffy, swollen, tender through the breasts, and heavier through your lower belly and legs.

When the lymphatic system slows down, the body’s “inner waterways” become more stagnant. This can amplify bloating, cramps, breast discomfort, fatigue, and that feeling of emotional heaviness we often can’t explain.

Lymphatic drainage works gently never forcing, only guiding
to help your body restore flow again.

By stimulating lymph nodes, clearing pathways, and encouraging natural detoxification, it can:

• Reduce bloating and water retention
• Ease breast tenderness and abdominal swelling
• Improve circulation
• Support hormonal balance
• Calm the nervous system
• Bring a sense of lightness back into the body

Your cycle isn’t something to battle. It’s something to support.

Giving your lymphatic system a little help during this time isn’t indulgence, it’s care, regulation, and honouring the way your body works.

A gentle session during your cycle (or just before it begins) can bring comfort, relieve heaviness, and help you feel more grounded in your own skin.

Your body is always communicating. Lymphatic drainage simply helps it feel heard. 🤍

During this session, we couldn’t help but laugh at all the little gurgles and sounds coming from the abdomen, the kind of natural, funny, yet magical signs that the body gives us when it’s finally letting go.

Those gentle gurgles are more than just sounds… they’re signals of movement, release, and restored flow. The lymph is shifting, the digestive system is waking up, and the nervous system is softening into a parasympathetic (rest and repair) state.

When we calm the body and create a safe space for it to unwind, the results go beyond what we see on the surface it’s about feeling lighter, clearer, and more at ease from within.

No harsh pressure, no force just the rhythm of breath, nurturing touch, and the body’s own wisdom doing the work.

This is what I love most about these sessions… each one tells a story of reconnection, healing, and trust between you and your body. 💫

A lot of you may wonder why I spend so much time on the abdomen during a drainage session…

Because this area is truly the “CORE” of your lymphatic and digestive health.

Your abdomen houses thousands of lymph nodes ,including some of the largest and most active clusters in the entire body.

Nodes around the intestines, liver, and spleen work tirelessly to filter waste, support immunity, and move lymph back toward the heart.

When this region becomes stagnant or congested, you’ll often feel it as bloating, tightness, or that heavy “puffy” feeling through your midsection.

By dedicating extra time here, we’re not just softening the belly , we’re stimulating detox pathways, supporting digestion, and helping the entire lymphatic system flow with more ease.

Every session is about restoring balance from the inside out. 💛💚

This is HIJAMA

✨ a prophetic healing practice and one of the most powerful detoxification therapies known to support the body’s natural balance and renewal.

Rooted in Prophetic medicine (Sunnah), Hijama has been used for centuries to help the body release what it no longer needs: stagnant blood, toxins, inflammation, and energetic blockages that can leave us feeling heavy, tense, or fatigued.

During a session, I use gentle suction to draw fresh circulation to the surface and create space for detoxification. Then, with a light, intuitive hand, I make the tiniest incisions just enough to allow stagnation to release without discomfort or scarring.

You’ll notice the marks afterwards but when performed properly, they are minimal and fade beautifully within days. What lingers instead is a sense of clarity, lightness, and inner calm.

Every cup placement, every movement, is intentional.
I work slowly, intuitively, and with care , listening to how your body responds and adjusting with precision.

✨ Hijama isn’t just a physical release; it’s spiritual, emotional, and deeply grounding.
It’s the body’s way of returning to its natural state of flow and harmony.

Have you experienced the healing art of Hijama yet?

CELLULITE

it’s something almost every woman experiences at some point in her life.
But despite what we’ve been taught, it’s not just about fat.

In many cases, cellulite is linked to poor lymphatic flow, water retention, and sluggish circulation things that can all be improved through regular lymphatic drainage!

✨ Here’s how lymphatic drainage helps:
• It reduces excess fluid trapped in fat cells that create that uneven, dimpled look.
• It eases inflammation that can worsen the appearance of cellulite.
• It stimulates circulation, which supports collagen and skin firmness over time.
• And it smooths puffiness, helping the skin look softer and more refined.

But beyond the physical changes, lymphatic drainage encourages your body to detoxify and rebalance naturally supporting healthy hormones, improved energy, and a deep sense of renewal.

It’s about working with your body, not against it.
And the more you care for your lymphatic system through massage, movement, hydration, and mindful breathing and rest,
the more your skin (and body) will thank you for it.

At Body & Soul with Suzanne, every treatment is designed to help you reconnect with your body, release what’s heavy, and return to a state of lightness and flow. 🤍🤍🤍

Bloated, puffy or uncomfortable through your tummy
even when you’re “doing everything right??
SWIPE ACROSS & read below👇🏻👇🏻

So many women think their bloating is “normal,” but bloating, puffiness and abdominal heaviness are the body’s way of saying something is stuck, stagnant or overwhelmed. 😖

Bloating can come from lymphatic stagnation, inflammation, sluggish digestion, stress, fluid retention, or food triggers. When the lymph around the abdomen slows down, the body struggles to clear waste and excess fluid.
This leads to that familiar feeling of fullness, tightness, pressure, or a lower belly pouch that just won’t settle.😭

My approach to Lymphatic Drainage is integrative
blending gentle full-body lymphatic flow with abdominal work, colon release techniques and gut-focused relief, to support digestion, ease congestion, and help the body let go instead of hold.🫶🫶

By stimulating lymph movement, calming the nervous system and encouraging healthy elimination, this treatment can reduce bloating, fluid retention and abdominal discomfort leaving the tummy feeling flatter, softer, lighter and more comfortable, often after just one session.
So imagine what we can achieve with consistent treatment sessions??!!

Ready to feel the difference? Bookings for DECEMBER now open. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Your lymphatic system is one of the most powerful yet gentle detox pathways in your body. When it flows well, you feel lighter, clearer, and more energised. When it becomes stagnant, you may notice puffiness, swelling, cellulite, bloating, tension, and a general feeling of “sluggishness” in your body.

A professional lymphatic drainage massage works in two intentional steps to support this beautiful system:

🌿 1. Clearing
This step gently releases lymphatic fluid that has built up in your tissues. By creating space and stimulating the initial lymph vessels just beneath the skin, we allow stagnant fluid to loosen and begin moving again.

🌿 2. Reabsorption
Once the fluid has been cleared, we guide it toward your lymph nodes, where it can be filtered, processed, and returned to your bloodstream. This step helps reduce swelling, ease congestion, and support your body’s natural detoxification process.

Because the lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump of its own, it relies on rhythm, breath, movement, and therapeutic touch. With the right technique, this treatment can help:

✨ reduce puffiness and water retention
✨ support digestion and bloating
✨ improve circulation and skin clarity
✨ calm the nervous system
✨ boost immunity and overall wellbeing

Your body is always working to heal and balance itself lymphatic drainage simply gives it the support, rhythm, and direction it needs to flow again.
When the lymph moves, you feel better in your body… often in ways you didn’t even realise were connected.

There is nothing more humbling than witnessing clients not only feel better in their bodies, but then returning with their loved ones so they can experience the same healing.

My heart is so full reading words like these. 🤍

Massage and Hijama together create a powerful therapeutic pairing

the therapeutic relaxation massage Mariam offers helps soften the tissues, melt tension and open the pathways, while Hijama works deeper to support circulation, release stagnation and encourage the body’s natural healing response.

The result is a calmer nervous system, a lighter body, and a true sense of reset from the inside out.

Thank you, Rachelle, for trusting us with both you and your mum. It means more than we can express.🫶🫶
