This episode is for you if you’re looking to reduce puffiness, eye bags, look younger naturally and even create a more defined jawline. We are going to learn all about our lymphatic system and how to support it.

Cortney Santos is a licensed bodywork therapist and certified lymphedema therapist, specializing in lymphatic health and TMJ dysfunction.

Cortney has an online wellness business for busy women and moms teaching lymphatic massage self-care. Cortney also owns Colysa Therapies in Bedminster, NJ where she supports post-op recovery for clients healing from a wide range of surgeries.

Lymphatic massage can stimulate fluid movement and reduce puffiness
How to stimulate lymph nodes for effective lymphatic drainage
Posture significantly impacts lymphatic flow and overall health
Movement and hydration are essential for lymphatic function
How to decrease swelling in the ankles and legs
How to depuff the face and eye bags
What is TMJ and how myofascial release techniques can help ease pain
How buccal massage can reduce facial asymmetry and reduce puffiness
A lymphatic gut reset can relieve bloating and discomfort
Rebounding and legs up the wall can help lymphatic drainage, but lymph nodes must be stimulated first for it to be most effective
