Assisted vs. Manual

What is the Difference?

Assisted Lymphatic Therapy vs Manual Lymphatic Massage

Both support lymph flow and detoxification, but they differ in approach.

Assisted Lymphatic Therapy

Assisted Lymphatic Drainage utilizes the advanced XP2 wands to gently and effectively dissolve blockages and accelerate lymph flow without the need for extra pressure or extended treatment times. It is more effective than manual therapy due to its ability to penetrate the deeper lymph nodes and fluid. Unlike traditional manual techniques, this method minimizes strain on the delicate lymphatic vessels by generating a subtle energy field directly on the skin, which helps to stimulate and reactivate sluggish or obstructed lymphatic pathways, promoting overall detoxification and improved lymph circulation.

Manual Lymph Massage

Manual Lymphatic Massage is a hands-on method involving gentle, rhythmic strokes performed by a trained massage therapist. This technique encourages the movement of stagnant lymph fluid to reduce blockages. In some cases, it may require additional pressure or longer treatment sessions to be effective. Notably, even when Assisted Lymphatic Therapy is contraindicated for an individual, manual lymphatic massage might still be safely considered as an alternative treatment.
