Lymphatic care: why everyone is talking about it

Lymphatic drainage has moved from the spa menu to social media feeds, and for good reason. Gentle lymphatic techniques are deeply relaxing, and many people love how light and refreshed they feel afterwards.

What is the lymphatic system?

It is part of your body's natural drainage network, moving fluid and supporting your immune system. Unlike your circulation, it has no pump of its own. It relies on movement, breathing and gentle pressure.

What lymphatic treatments involve

Lymphatic techniques use slow, light, rhythmic movements that follow the direction of lymph flow. At Glow, you will find them in:

• Prin Lymphatic Therapy, which uses gentle techniques to encourage the natural movement of fluid, helping the face look refreshed and less puffy
• the Flow Lymphatic Ritual, combining dry body brushing, Repose Body Oil and full-body gua sha
• our Signature Rituals, which bring face and body together

Little habits at home

• Walk, stretch and move a little every day
• Stay well hydrated
• Use gentle upward strokes when you apply your skincare

A ritual worth slowing down for

Lymphatic care is as much about switching off as it is about how you look. If you have been running on empty, it might be exactly what you need.
