Digestive Health, Lymphatic Drainage and Circulatory Issues

Many people report an improvement in their digestive symptoms - including constipation/ slow bowel transit, bloating, digestive pain and IBS - as a result of manual therapy. Treatment to improve digestive health includes mobilising the back and pelvis, releasing any tension in the diaphragm, gentle massage of the abdominal muscles and fascia to improve mobility, and assessing posture and lifestyle factors which may be contributing to the problem.

During your initial appointment, we'll ask you a range of questions and conduct a thorough physical assessment of the problem area. We'll explain the cause of your pain or symptoms, and a treatment plan will be tailor-made for your diagnosis. If you need onward referral, we'll discuss your best options.

Treatment of Digestion, Circulation and Lymphatics in Bath

Poor Circulation and Lymphatic Drainage

Lymph is a clear fluid bathing all the cells of the body. From here it flows back into lymphatic channels, carrying with it any waste materials and broken down cellular material, which eventually are returned to the main circulation to be processed by the liver or excreted. This system can be negatively affected by tight muscles and restricted movement around joints and fascia. Lymphatic drainage techniques helps to improve the flow of lymph, reducing swelling and bloating. Treatment includes mobilisations and gentle effleurage (a type of massage) to encourage excess lymph to flow back out of the tissues towards the main circulation system.
