She will also prescribe DMPS, if you want to try that.---------Jackie Thanks all _._,_.___ Messages in this topic (1) Reply (via web post) | Start a new topic Messages MARKETPLACE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Earn your degree in as few as 2 years - Advance your career with an AS, BS, MS degree - College-Finder.net.

Rebounding and dry brushing are really helpful for lymph drainage support. I do them regularly. Not sure if epsom salt bath is directly helpful, but I do those too.

There are a variety of herbs that are supposed to help, and I've seen several combo products. The only combo I tried was a tincture of echinacea/red root (Gaia), and I don't think it did a lot for me. Echinacea alone can be helpful - personally, I have to be careful not to use it for too long because it messes with my gut. > Is anyone aware of anything else for gentle support to assist with > lymph actions.

I have also been using guaifenesin recently - it seems to have helped with lymph flow. Exercise, even mild, can help. Walking and stretching are especially good, as well as rebounding. Even if you can't do much, it helps to stretch, move, and use your muscles to the extent you are able since this helps move the lymph. Constipation can also be related to poor bile flow. So that might be another area to work on. > I am seeing the lady dr in seattle next week for thyroid and adrenal > support.

Thank you. > Well, not sure what to tell you about it. You can find more about this with online search. Basically, brushing the skin with a soft bristle brush helps to stimulate circulation (blood and lymph) and immune function. I have always read that it's important to start at the extremities (hands and feet) and move toward the heart. I don't know if that is essential, but I tend to do it that way. I always do it before an epsom salt bath and sometimes before showering. Could also do it before sauna. To me, it feels good and I like to do things that feel good. Like anything else, it is possible to stir things up when you first start doing this, and I would suggest starting slow with it, just try a small area first, maybe just one arm from the hand to the forearm and increase gradually to the whole arm, then add other limbs, and eventually the neck and torso. Another way to help lymph flow is stretching, for example yoga can sometimes be helpful. Of course you have to work within your own limitations. If you have trouble getting relief from lymph stagnation, you might want to visit a massage therapist who knows how to do lymph massage. They use pressure and release in specific areas to help encourage lymph flow. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
