Autoimmune
Autoimmune diseases always come with inflammation (swelling) which if left in the tissues, can become hard and turn into fibrotic scar tissue. Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage triggers the body to absorb excess swelling from the tissues, prevent fibrosis and relieve the toxins causing the body to attack itself.
Having an autoimmune disease can be a confusing. There are so many different types and diagnosis. Often times the doctors don't have a diagnosis and just classify your symptoms as autoimmune.
Autoimmune is your body attacking itself causing nerve pain, inflammation, chronic fatigue and other symptoms that affect quality of everyday life. Doctors often have the approach of managing symptoms and pain. Common treatments often prescribed for autoimmune diseases such as pain meds, immunosuppressants and anti-inflammatories that pollute the body, stagnate the lymph system, increasing the rate of infection, take a toll on the organs and body long term.
At Amare we find the root cause for the body attacking itself, detox the system and jump start the healing process.

Cancer recovery Manual Lymphatic Drainage
The most important part of cancer recovery is detoxing the body!
Weather you're going the traditional route taking chemo, radiation and other medications or using holistic modalities, the body needs to recover and can't if its polluted with built up toxins, swelling and dead tissue.
One of the most common side effects of cancer treatment is severe swelling (edema). Causes of edema are lymph nodes/vessels being damaged from radiation or removed, side effects of medications and the cancer itself. When the lymph system is damaged, fluid leaks out into the tissue and is unable to be reabsorbed normally, stagnating, becoming toxic, creating pressure and pain in the body.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage for Cancer Recovery reroutes the fluid to the working lymph vessels and nodes to absorbed back into the bloodstream expelled through the urine.
