What is Lymphatic Drainage Therapy

What is Lymphatic Drainage Therapy

by Wendy Madgwick | 28, Jul 2021 | Lymphatic Drainage Therapy, Physiotherapy

This therapy consists of manual and massage techniques that promote the flow of lymphatic fluid from the lymphatic vessels back to the circulation system. When the lymph circulation stagnates, fluids, proteins, cells, and toxins accumulate.

New Zealand’s Koru Greenstone

Pounamu also known as Jade or Greenstone is found in the rivers mostly in the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand. Water tumbled smooth by the stone’s journey down from the mountains.

The Maori word for this sacred stone is Pounamu meaning treasure.  It has been used for centuries carved as talismans often as fish hooks, hei tiki, koru (fern fronds), also meres (clubs).  When I hold the greenstone it helps me connect to the vibration of the land, the forest and trees of Aotearoa (New Zealand) the land of my birth. I liken it to a crystalised form of the green lifeblood energy that flows throughout nature.  Connecting to nature and to our own naturalness helps rebalance, harmonise and support healing with strong vital “chi” in movement, vitality, flexibility and grounded-ness.
