The Lymphatic Brush was founded and created by Cecily Braden. It is not a dry brush, a make-up brush, or a cleansing brush. The patented design provides an easy, ergonomic and effective way to incorporate lymphatic drainage into your self-care face and body routines.
THE LYMPHATIC BRUSH: The patented design features a unique bristle pattern and density combination that grips the skin in a precise way, targeting the superficial lymph vessels residing just under the skin. When combined with specialized techniques, it mimics the passive contractions of the lymph vessels to manually propel fluids and stimulate lymph flow. The ergonomic contoured shape ensures proper contact with the surface of the skin and accurate alignment with the lymph nodes and lymphatic pathways.
HOW TO USE: For the use of The Lymphatic Brush, it is best to use a combination of short, long and overlapping sweeps towards the lymph nodes. Take a deep breath and relax into the movements. Look for a slight bounce and gentle stretch, or “lymphatic pull” as you sweep. Change the direction of the brush to contour and ensure the bristles maintain contact with the skin.
