The Lymphatic system is a remarkable and incredibly important part of
the human body.
Working with our patients, we continue to be astounded by the benefits of this treatment.

What are the benefits?
E.L.T is both a preventative and curative and can enhance general well being as well
as curing specific problems. E.L.T is highly effective in treating :
*
Overall health boost; It strengthens the immune system and increases energy levels
* Promotes better
skin – helps minimise wrinkles, wounds, inflammations etc.
* Relief from chronic
conditions such as sinus problems, rheumatoid arthritis, auto immune deficiencies
* Fibromyalgia, chronic
fatigue, tender breasts and diabetes
* Reduces swelling and pain in joints (particularly sport injuries) and
increases flexibility
* Helps prevent breast and prostrate problems
* Relieves water retention
– swollen ankles, tired puffy eyes
* Aids post surgery recovery; bruising and swelling
What does the Lymph actually do ?
Developed over 20 years ago in one of the top American
hospitals, Doctor De Montfort specialising in blood noted the benefits to the Lymphatic system.
The Lymph
system is a major part of the immune system & is a complex network of tissues, capillaries & Lymph vessels that produce
& transport Lymph fluid around the body.Whilst the Lymphatic system contains twice as much liquid as the blood vessels,
it lacks a pump, such as a heart to carry waste from the Lymph glands out of the body.
Even the healthiest and most active people can get partially blocked and sluggish Lymphatic systems.
When toxins accumulate in the Lymph system the body becomes
sluggish & possibly sick (sometimes without the person even realising) and clogged lymph nodes become lymph lumps, more
commonly known as cellulite.
We all know massage
is undoubtedly good for us, the remarkable American Electro Lymphatic Treatment is up to 12 times more effective
than manual Lymph massage as it heals at a deeper level without applying any pressure to the skin.
By cleaning the Lymph system, this improves the blood supply, which in turn has a positive effect
on every cell in the body. People report relief from a wide range of seemingly unrelated conditions.
ELT is widely used in many European hospitals & clinics and we now have the first of its type
on the Costa Del Sol.
Our trained therapist will use a hand
held wand to send high-frequency electrical pulses into the lymphatic system. These healing frequencies break up the congestion
at a fast rate and so target an affected area efficiently.
The one hour session is painless and most people experience a warm gentle tingling
sensation.
Indicators that your Lymph system
needs treatment:-
There are many physical
signs of congestion in the Lymphatic System that can benefit significantly by improving Lymph circulation. Some
of these include:
- Water Retention, particularly in ankles or fingers, indicating fluid congestion
- General muscle aches and pains or a stiff neck, often as a result of sprains or
whiplash
- Cellulite and weight problems
- Breathing problems, such as asthma or sinusitis
- Breast lumpiness
- Post surgery tissue congestion, scar formation or stretch marks
- Skin
problems
- Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Fibromyalgia
- Stress, headaches and migranes
- Glucoma
- Immune system problems
However even the healthiest person will benefit from E.L.T.
