Are you counting down the days until your summer vacation, ready to soar through the skies to your dream destination? But wait! Maybe you dread the sinus issues and blocked ears that often accompany long-haul flights? I did once upon a time, so I can relate. Please don’t worry, though, because I've got a solution for you – my Lymphatic Facial. Imagine stepping off the plane, ready to embark on your adventure with a spring in your step because you actually enjoyed your flight…discomfort-free! I know it is unheard of but bear with me on this.
Let's dive straight into why this natural (and pretty enjoyable, if I do say so myself) remedy will be your new best friend during that dreaded flight.
- Farewell Jet Lag. Hello Blissful Flight!
The ultimate mood spoiler after a long-haul flight is always jet lag. Yep, we have all been there. During those hours in the air, our bodies can experience reduced lymph fluid circulation, leading to dreaded jet lag symptoms. It puts a real downer on those first few days of hols.
The Lymphatic Bowen massage can often change that, and I have successfully helped many people to combat it. The slow and gentle rhythmic hand movements of this facial and all over the body target the lymphatic system unclogging the lymphatic vessels, allowing the free flow of lymph fluid throughout the body. This increased lymph fluid circulation is a natural jet lag treatment technique, significantly reducing the swellings, jet lag symptoms, and effects. It is like a miracle cure and also feels pretty good at the same time.
Taking large water quantities post-procedure benefits jet lag treatment recovery. In fact, I recommend that long-haul travellers take a minimum of 1.5 litres of water before and after treatment. For many, this natural remedy works wonders to combat the effects of jet lag, leaving you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready to embrace your holiday with gusto!
- De-Puff Like a Pro
Let's face it - spending hours cooped up in an aeroplane seat can make our body parts feel a bit like inflatable balloons. And boy, do our lymphatic vessels feel it too! Due to little or no activity, long-haul flights may cause body part swelling, especially feet, hands, neck, and ankles. This lack of activity causes low lymph fluid circulation in the body, draining the lymph fluid into the body tissues and clogging the lymph vessels. The consequences of which are the swellings experienced in the various body parts during a long-haul flight. Holidays are great, but the travel part isn’t always a bed of roses.
But here's where the Lymphatic Bowen massage steps in. With the help of a skilled practitioner (hello, over here!) and a little H2O, your body's lymphatic system gets a boost like never before. The fluid starts flowing freely once more, and the result? Zero puffiness! So, get ready to stride off that plane looking fresh and fabulous. Ok, I can’t promise that, but as close as we can get is still good, right?
- Unleash the Power of Hydration
Remember that hydration is the name of the game when it comes to flying and lymphatic drainage. Before any lymphatic massage treatment, make sure to hydrate yourself properly with at least 1.5 litres of water. Keeping hydration a priority post-procedure is so important; I can’t recommend it enough if you want to see the best possible outcome. Preparing your body for that refreshing post-treatment glow should become a pre-flight ritual! Sip on those fluids like you're on vacation…because you will be very soon! And then you can switch it for a cocktail once you are around the pool.
Proper hydration ensures a speedy recovery from jet lag and ensures that the lymph fluid keeps flowing…keeping those pesky swellings at bay. I know I harp on about water, but it is pretty amazing stuff – and it’s free!
- Sinus Saviour
Ah, sinus issues - the ultimate enemy of the aeroplane traveller and one of the worse side effects of long-haul flights. As if the pressure changes during take-off and landing aren't enough, blocked ears are a nightmare, forever trying to pop them by sucking on a boiled sweet…does that ever really work? But often, Lymphatic Facial can come to the rescue once again!
By targeting the lymphatic system, this facial helps to relieve congestion in your sinuses, allowing them to drain and alleviate the dreaded ear-blocking sensation. So that’s three great reasons to consider a lymphatic drainage massage as your pre-holiday treat – you deserve it.
