Osteopathic Lymph Drainage Technique | 人體結構及骨骼調整・淋巴引流技巧
A rhythmic pair of hands, the lymphatic pumps, and the body's slowest circulation set in motion.
Take home a whole-body Level 1 Osteopathic Lymph Drainage sequence, and the rhythmic pump technique that empties the deep lymph reservoir.
Lymph is the body's second return circulation. It carries the protein, fat, immune cells and waste that the veins cannot recover, it has no heart of its own, and most of it runs just under the skin. It moves by tiny muscular pumps along its vessels and by everything around them: breath, muscle, and the hand. A hand that presses hard collapses it. A hand that moves the skin at the lymph's own pace, about six times a minute, can move litres in a day. That is what this course teaches your hands to do.
In three afternoons you learn two foundations side by side. The light-touch technique: how to open the terminal nodes above the clavicles, drain the neck, the axilla and the deep abdomen, then work each territory of the arms, trunk and legs back to its own nodes, and rinse. The lymphatic pumps: the thoracic inlet release that opens the drain, the thoracic and pedal pumps, and the abdominal, splenic and liver pumps that empty the deep reservoir through breath and pressure. By the end of Module 3 every participant has given and received the complete Level 1 Body Sequence, the liver drainage, and the five pumps.
The theory comes first and it is free. The Foundation Class (Day 0) covers the lymphatic pathways, why light touch works, and the safety screening, in four hours, live and as a video course. Register, attend or watch, pass a ten-question entry quiz, and the hands-on modules are yours to join. Explanation in the modules is practical, short and precise; almost all of the twelve hours is on the practice tables, in a class of no more than ten, with Dr PC Lam at your table. Every claim is labelled: established physiology, teaching model, or hands-on instruction. Want a deeper technical assessment and supervision? Add Module 4.
