What is Body Ballancer? 

Body Ballancer bodysuit uses patent protected inflating compression garments that apply a gentle or firm pressure in the form of a massage, to apply fluent compression strokes to the body in order to target the treated area. 

The flow from the base of the limb to the torso, accelerates the removal of waste products and excess fluid through the lymphatic system. This treatment is available at our London Clinic.

A lymphatic drainage massage benefits both health and wellbeing for the body’s lymphatic system. 

        Health: 

• Aiding the immune system. The lymphatic system assists the immune system by extracting waste, cell debris, and other toxins from the body tissues, while also destroying any bacteria and viruses discovered during this cleansing process.
• Body Ballancer facilitates the absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins from the digestive system, guaranteeing that these vital nutrients are transported to all cells throughout the body via the bloodstream.
• Eliminating water retention by removing excess fluid, thereby reducing discomforting swelling and puffiness that can come from water retention.
  
  Wellbeing: 
• Cellulite and skin tone. By increasing the flow of fresh, oxygenated blood to the tissues this can result in seeing a significant improvement in cellulite and the quality of the skin. 
• Body sculpting. By targeting swelling and bloating, the lymphatic and circulatory systems can thereby eliminate excess fluid and puffiness in a single Body Ballancer treatment. 

This is a specialised medical massage aimed to help treat lymphedema which happens when the lymphatic fluid collects in certain areas of the body because it struggles to drain away. 

PHI Clinic’s Body Ballancer treatment aims to improve the flow of lymph fluid in order to reduce swelling in targeted areas. The device works to massage an area without swelling in order to make room for fluid to flow swiftly, to reach the congested areas. 

Lymphatic fluid plays a key role in unblocking your lymphatic system. The fluid works to remove toxins and waste from the body's tissues as some health conditions may cause a build up in the system for instance lymphedema and fibromyalgia. 

The lymphatic fluid flows through the lymph vessels which connect the lymph nodes. As the fluid passes through the lymph nodes, white blood cells trap and eliminate harmful particles for instance bacteria. 

The extensive lymphatic system in your body is comparable to the blood circulatory system, as it serves nearly every cell throughout your entire body. Lymph vessels are interconnected like a string of pearls, and they contain lymph nodes that act as filters, which you can sometimes feel in your neck or under your arm when you're unwell. As lymph fluid passes through these nodes, it gets purified as toxins and impurities are removed from the body. 

The lymphatic system relies on muscle movement, deep breathing, and sometimes manual manipulation or lymphatic drainage machines (Body Ballancer) to move the fluid.

When the lymphatic system becomes blocked or overwhelmed due to illness or lack of activity, lymph fluid can accumulate, resulting in issues such as swelling, cellulite, joint pain, and sickness.

• Stress 
• Poor diet 
• A less active lifestyle 

These factors are a contributing factor that prevents lymphatic fluid from moving through the body, causing a ‘build up’ or congestion in particular areas of the body. If left unmanaged for too long this can lead to swelling and bloating, cellulite, joint pain and fatigue. In some extreme cases, if left untreated, this can knock into your immune system by putting your body at risk of serious diseases.
