About The Lymphatic System

A compromised lymphatic system can lead to a range of health issues including tissue swelling, poor skin tone, excess weight, cellulite, headaches, fatigue and susceptibility to illness.

The lymphatic system has been given due importance by physicians in Europe and the Far East for its role in corrective & preventive care. Mego Afek has developed the Ballancer technology to manage volume reduction goals and deliver results that delight.

The lymphatic system has no central pump. It depends on muscle contraction and manual manipulation to move fluid. If the lymph system gets blocked or overrun (due to illness, surgery, toxic overload or lack of activity), lymph fluid backs up. This can cause swelling, excess cellulite, joint pain, nausea and fatigue. Stagnant lymph may be stored within nodes for a long period of time. Lack of skin tone, 'lumps and bumps' around major lymph nodes, diminished sense of wellness can give the appearance of weight gain and obesity. Did you know that the lymphatic absorbs fats and fat-soluble vitamins from the digestive system and delivers these nutrients to the cells of the body where they are used as fuel? Imagine if the lymphatic system is impeded!

The Ballancer creates the effects of a healthy lymphatic system through assisted lymphatic drainage. Look better, feel better and enjoy the treatment session.

What's not to love?

The lymphatic system is an amazing piece of engineering. Let us visualize its’ vast extent. Like the circulatory system that supplies blood, the network of lymph vessels serves almost every cell in the body. Strung along the lymph vessels like pearls knotted on a string, the lymph nodes serve as a series of cleaning filters. Lymphatic fluid percolates through the nodes, being purified and immunologically boosted at every stage.

What we get from the marvelous lymphatic system is removal of excess fluid – ‘lymph’ – and waste products from the spaces between the cells and organs of the body​. Aha! Lymphatic health means smoother arms and legs!

Lymphatic System and cellulite reduction

WHAT IS CELLULITE?

Cellulite is a term used to describe a dimpled, lumpy appearance of the skin. Usually found on the thighs, buttocks and upper arms it affects 85-95% of women of all ages.

The layer of fat just under the skin – known as the subcutaneous fat layer – is organised into chambers and held in place by a network of connective tissue known as ‘septae’. As we gain weight or suffer a build-up of toxins, the tissue contained in these chambers increases in volume. However, the septae does not flex to accommodate this volume increase and instead the swollen fat cells protrude upwards through the skin layer, producing the ‘orange peel’ or ‘cottage cheese’ like appearance of cellulite that we know so well!

If the blood supply to the area and/or the lymphatic system is compromised, the build up of fat and toxins will continue to increase.

An unhealthy lifestyle can have a damaging effect on our health. Unhealthy eating habits, drinking, smoking, sedentary occupation, lack of vigorous exercise results in the toxic build-up in our body.

Adopting good habits and improved blood and oxygen flow will take this improvement to another level.
