Lymphatic Enhancement Therapy

(L.E.T.) is a non-invasive, gentle detoxification therapy used to improve lymphatic integrity and restore lymphatic flow and function. The Lymphatic Enhancement Therapy (LET) Practitioner uses a unique combination of gentle manual stimulation techniques and the use of glass pyrex bulbs that emit low-energy vibrational frequencies and are applied directly to the skin. L.E.T. encourages toxins, excess fluid, cellular waste and proteins accumulated between the cells to safely exit through the body’s natural elimination channels. This gentle, relaxing and non-invasive procedure works more effectively than manual techniques used alone. We have found that several, consistent sessions (at least one per week for 6-12 weeks) will produce the best results. When combined with proper nutrition, diet and moderate exercise, L.E.T. increases an overall feeling of well-being and can help restore your lymphatic system to optimal health within a few sessions.
