Bio-Electric Lymph Drainage

Our bodies are amazing! They take in food, extract nutrients, feed all systems, collect the waste and then put out the garbage. The circulatory system runs throughout the body to deliver nutrients and oxygen-rich blood and take oxygen-reduced blood back to the heart for re-oxygenation.  Similar to the circulatory system, the lymphatic system covers the entire body and can greatly affect many of the body’s essential functions, including our immune system. It is vital to keep the fluids of both systems moving properly to ensure that oxygen and other nutrients reach the tissues through the circulatory system, and that cellular debris from the tissues is taken away via the lymphatic system. Movement of body fluids is essential for health at a cellular level. Fortunately, the circulatory system has a pumping heart which keeps the blood moving. The lymphatic systemhas no pumpto carry toxins, poisons, trapped proteins and other unwanted materials, yet it literally cleans the spaces between cells and allows waste products and toxins to slowly and safely flow out through normal channels.

Some factors that contribute to lymph congestion are:

Ø  Poor nutrition

Ø  Injuries

Ø  Constipation

Ø  Lack of exercise

Ø  Environmental toxins

Ø  Pathogens

Ø  Stress

Ø  Hormone imbalances

Ø  Normal aging process 

When toxins accumulate in the lymphatic system the body can become sluggish and sick. When clogged lymph nodes become lymph lumps, the fatty deposits formed create bumps and dimples. We call that condition cellulite. So, how do we get all that trash moving along?  

Today’s state-of-the-art Bio-Electric Lymphatic Drainage therapy is an accelerated method of moving stagnant, sticky lymphatic fluid out of the body. The Inspiration System is a vibration energy technology that emits energetic information to the cells’ energy field via harmonic sounds, frequencies of light and Noble Gas Ionization. Inspiration achieves its results by using a light beam generator which emits a stream of photons (negative ions), known for their antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. The light beam, pulsed with a heartbeat rhythm, improves the flow of blood and lymph, while simultaneously loosening waste from cells. Cells have an electromagnetic charge that either binds them together or keeps them apart. BELD works by rebalancing the charge of the cells' electromagnetic field. It provides information in the form of harmonics of sound and light to the energy field of the cell. The result of this application is the breaking up of the blockages through the re-polarization of proteins. When the polarity of the blockage is reversed, the material slowly erodes and flows out through natural system channels. This is a gentle non-invasive procedure combined with gentle manual lymph drainage and is faster and more complete than manual techniques used alone. Allowing the therapist to accomplish in a one hour session what would take many hours without the vibration energy technology.

Clinical Applications:

Headaches and sinus problems                                                          Fibromyalgia 

Helps to clear fluid retention                                                             Chronic fatigue

Most joint inflammatory conditions                                                  Chronic Colitis 

Improves fertility by clearing congestion in the pelvic area              Carpel Tunnel syndrome

Sore throats including lymphadenopathies of the neck                    Helps reduce cellulite 

Stiff necks, sore shoulders, whiplash, and back problems                Helps release stress and tension 

Helps many cases of underactive thyroid by allowing the thyroid hormone to get into the tissues where it is needed

What to Expect During a Session:

It can feel relaxing like a soothing massage, allowing the body to go into the parasympathetic healing mode. A BELD session begins by having the client undress and lie on a massage table under a sheet/blanket in a warm room with soft lights. The therapist starts by checking the condition of the lymphatic system, as it presents on the client's body. “Inspiration” has a hand-held wand that is lightly moved over the skin, producing a negative energy field which allows the blood and lymph fluid to circulate freely. The hands-on lymphatic drainage technique consists of slow, subtle, and gentle sweeping movements, mimicking the natural rhythmic pumping of the lymphatic system. This results in enhanced recovery rates by loosening proteins that are stagnant, causing retained fluid and congested areas to FLOW. Stagnation is reversed and the lymph system is now free to perform its normal cleansing functions. 

Preparing for Your Session:

üRefrain from showering or bathing at least 3-4 hours prior to your session so skin is thoroughly dry.

üAvoid applying lotion/oil, deodorant, perfume and makeup prior to your appointment. 

üThey prevent the light technique from being blocked so you can achieve maximum benefits. Otherwise, these skin products could be absorbed during the treatment.

üConsider leaving your jewelry at home, as we will need you to remove all metal prior to the session. 

üAvoid drinking 1 hour before your session for your comfort while lying down.

üAvoid irritants like coffee, soda, alcohol, etc., on your appointment day.

After Your Session:

v  Clients may feel relaxed for a few hours after the appointment.

v  Clients often notice a higher volume of urine production. It may have a stronger smell, be a different colour, or even be foamy/filmy as the lymph drains first towards the kidney/ bladder.

v  It is important to drink plenty of water (more than normal) to assist in the cleansing. 

How Many Sessions Do You Need?

BELD may be taken every other day to help a congested system. It can also be taken as needed or as desired for immune strength or relaxation.  

Contraindications: 

Under the following circumstances, clients CANNOT undergo BELD therapy:

·      Have an electrical implant or pacemaker 

·      Have had recent significant trauma (auto accident – falls – etc. in the last six months)

·      Are pregnant (unless referred by consulting doctor)

·      Have undergone recent surgery (within the last 4 weeks)

·      Have a terminal illness
