The massage she speaks of goes for one hour and she claims it’s ‘highly therapeutic’ and helps to reshape the body.
‘The gentle massage of fluid towards the lymphatic glands deeply flush the system,’ she said.
‘Improvements are evident in the circulatory, respiratory and endocrine system.
‘It is proven that lymphatic drainage will reduce the possibility of catching a cold or suffering a virus as well as losing weight and burning calories more effectively.’

She also explained that this lymphatic drainage method is designed to help improve ones health and the flow of the lymphatic system.
‘It is performed by a qualified lymphatic massage therapist. It focuses on rubbing fluid towards lymph nodes in the body,’ Belinda said.
Belinda, who has completed a degree in Health and Physical Education, said that the best time to have the massage done is when your lymph nodes are blocked.
This is because this is when the body isn’t capable of removing toxins, which the massage helps to rectify.

‘Not only does this massage improve the lymphatic system it improved the whole-body function,’ Belinda shared.
‘Finding a genuine lymphatic masseuse is a struggle with many doing absurd techniques that have no purpose.’
She said that when going for a lymphatic massage people should ask the masseuse whether they use a Brazilian technique as it has ‘far superior’ flushing abilities.
‘Hence why those Brazilian beauties have those luscious limbs and stunning bodies – I knew there was a secret!,’ she concluded.
