Massage therapy has been used for thousands of years as a form of natural healing. Did you know you can experience it in its perfect form, reduce the signs of aging, take care of your body, and balance your entire lymphatic system in just a few treatments at Bilancia Spa? Lymphatic drainage during peri-menopause and menopause is one the best self-care treatment you can experience.
The earliest documented massages date back to 3,000 B.C.E in India used in Ayurvedic medicine. Passed on for generations around the world, massages have been used to heal injuries, relieve pain, and cure illnesses. In today’s world, massage therapy is known to most people. With the evolution of modern science and the study of the body, the importance of massage therapy, particularly lymphatic drainage, has gained incredible momentum and benefits for people.
Lymphatic drainage massage therapy originated in France in the early 1930s. Doctors discovered that by working with the lymphatic system, they could treat patients with a variety of ailments, such as migraines, sinus conditions, acne, and swollen lymph nodes, and support after surgery by reducing swelling and endema.
Lymphatic drainage massages stimulate specific parts of the body to work with the lymph vessels. The benefits extend to support the overall immune health, and even stress reduction.

If you’re dealing with menopause, there is research showing that the optimal health of the lymphatic system reduces the challenging side effects menopause can bring. During menopause, the body goes through a transformation, and the lymphatic system is directly impacted. When the vessels change, it impacts weight, fluid retention, and energy. This is why it’s vital to take care of this integral body system, especially when entering a new stage of life like menopause.
If you’re curious about the specific benefits of lymphatic drainage, here are just a few of the many.
- Reduced swelling:
One of the main symptoms of lymphatic system irregularity is increased swelling in the body. Fluid retention from a blocked lymphatic system can cause parts of the body to swell including hands, legs, feet, neck, face, and lymph nodes. There are many natural ways you can decrease swelling in the body due to poor lymphatic drainage including exercising, a proper diet, and of course, a lymphatic drainage massage. A proper lymphatic drainage experience, such as the one you can receive at Bilancia spa, will help to reduce swelling in the body, with effects lasting throughout the weeks to come.
- Boosted immune system:
Lymphatic drainage massages stimulate the lymphatic system, helping the body eliminate toxins, which in turn, helps to boost the immune system. The lymphatic system is just one step of the process in the body’s way of removing toxins as this system passes waste to the bloodstream, then to liver and kidneys, and finally eliminated through urine and stool. The lymphatic system also works with the immune system to produce lymphocytes which are a type of white blood cell used to protect the body.
- Supports skin health:
Lymphatic drainage massages can help you radiate beauty naturally. When this system is holding onto waste and fluid retention, it can cause you to look more swollen and increase puffiness. The good news is that lymphatic drainage massages, like the one we offer at Bilancia Spa, allows for better circulation leading to a natural skin glow and radiance. Most importantly, our state-of-the-art machine uses precise pressure and consistently throughout the body to ensure your looks and results will last longer.
- Relaxation and stress relief:
Just like most massages, a lymphatic drainage massage at Bilancia Spa will allow for you to lie down and relax. Our precise technology works in a deep and effective way to alleviate the lymphatic system from any sort of pain or soreness you might be experiencing in the body. If your body is holding on to tension and stress, you can expect to leave a lymphatic drainage massage feeling a lot more rejuvenated and relaxed. Research shows that after lymphatic drainage, the levels of cortisol are drastically reduced.
- Detoxification:
Think of your lymphatic system as a free flowing river, coursing throughout your body. Now think of a blocked lymphatic system as a dam that inhibits that river to flow with ease. It can cause disruption in what the system does best, which is work in harmony and efficiency in the body. A lymphatic drainage massage allows for those blockages in the system to be alleviated which supports your body in naturally detoxifying. The detoxification support from this massage will lead to reduced inflammation, allowing you to be more free of any pesky menopausal symptoms weighing you down.
