Electro Lymphatic Therapy (ELT) vs. Manual Lymph Massage
Manual lymphatic massage originated by Dr. Emil Fodder and his wife, Estrid, in the 1930s while living in Cannes, France. Manual lymphatic massage relieves swelling that occurs when surgery, illness or injury has congested the lymphatic system. Manual lymphatic massage involves gently manipulating specific areas of the body to move excess fluid buildup away from the tissues and towards working lymph vessels and nodes. This gentle pumping and pushing motion helps rid the body of trapped fluid and stored toxins.
Electro Lymphatic Therapy was founded by Dr. Simon de Montfort, a homeopathic medical doctor in 1982. The instrument achieves its results on an energetic level. In a class of technology known as vibrational science, Lymph Purify works on improving the pressure differential of the blood and the lymph. Lymph Purify offers a holistic approach that sets the precondition for the body to heal itself by eliminating excess fluids and stored toxins making it a powerful complement to manual lymphatic massage.
The distinction between manual lymphatic massage and Electro Lymphatic Therapy (ELT) is significant. ELT accomplishes two critical things that manual massage is not capable of accomplishing. Penetrating deep into the body, ELT achieves its results on an energetic level. It breaks up blockages of bacteria and blood proteins that have congested in the lymph nodes and helps convert the thick stagnant lymph fluid back to more of a thin watery consistency so it can circulate more efficiently. This aids in the proper elimination of toxins and increasing oxygen delivery.
Electro Lymphatic Therapy has been found to be up to eight times more effective at relieving edema and lymphatic congestion than manual lymphatic massage. This reduces the time and complexity of the therapy dramatically.
