Assisted Lymphatic Therapy (ALT)
/
This is a non-invasive and painless therapeutic treatment that stimulates lymph flow and breaks up congestion in the lymphatic system.
First of all, it is important to remember that 70 percent of your immune system lies within the deep lymphatic tissue. That's why this therapy is so important for your immune system and people dealing with auto immune and cancer and all of those chronic illnesses. ALT is such a great way to help the body to heal.
A Congested Flow Of The Lymphatic System
Lymph carries nutrients in your body, and if the lymphatic system is congested you're starving. You can be taking supplements, vitamins and eating great food and all of these things – but if your lymphatic system is congested you are malnourished.
The other thing the lymphatic system does is carries T cells to the body. Why is that important? That is what is going to attack pathogens, and attack cancer.
Assisted Lymphatic Therapy (ALT) is phenomenal for auto immune, for lyme disease, fibromyalgia, healing from surgery especially plastic surgery on your face. At SOZO we have had some great testimonials for water reduction. If you have lymphedema – this is something that your insurance should pay for.
After the therapy the client gains increased circulation, an increased absorption of nutraceuticals and if you're taking pharmaceuticals that's something you have to be careful about too — because they're going to work even better.
NOTE: Thermography scans can detect lymphatic congestion, as well as monitor improvements made after ALT sessions. (SOZO hosts quarterly Thermography with Asheville Integrative’s Dr. Biddle MD.)
