Envisioning a World Without Breast Cancer
Lymphatic Breast Massage
To specifically effect lymph in massage, it is necessary to pump in a specific direction, at a specific pace. This mimics the natural action of the lymphatic system. Lymphatic Breast Massage is easy to learn. It is different than just massaging your breast because you will specifically move the breast in a way that mimics how lymph moves in the body. We will use a pumping movement where we move the breast using some light pressure and then release the breast gently, allowing it to return to it’s normal position. Each move and return counts as one pump. Using the lymphatic breast massage model, the most important idea is to keep the lymphatic fluid moving in this area.
