Most of the food we eat these days are packed with preservatives, food coloring, additives and toxins. In an attempt to protect us from their harms, our body tries to filter these chemicals through our lymph, a white blood cell fluid that’s flows through the network of tissues and nodes in our body which assists in removing unwanted materials from the body. However, since the lymphatic system cannot filter overloaded of toxins, the body becomes clogged up with harmful elements which slows down metabolism and affects lymphatic functions. Hence, the Detox massage fixes all those problems thoroughly flushing the internal body by driving out all the accumulated toxins from it.
The treatment uses gentle, repetitive strokes using herbal oils to stimulate the lymphatic system which allow good flow of of lymph through lymphatic vessels and nodes which is essential for removing the harmful elements in them and fighting off infections.
At Zen Spa, Detox Spa package is the most popular treatment in which therapist uses a combination of massage movements including rhythmic strokes, dry body brushing, detoxifying body scrub and irregular applications of pressure that gently compress and stretch the muscle tissues. These all normalizes oxygen levels in blood, boosts body’s immune and circulatory systems and increases energy level.
Also rhythmic sequence and the direction of strokes are devised by therapist during the massage for helping push the lymph towards the correct nodes in order to remove blockages in the blood circulatory system because the lymphatic system does not have a pump like the circulatory system does (the heart) so the only way to move lymphatic fluid and remove toxins is through massage.
