Dry Brushing for Lymphatic Drainage of the Face, Neck, and Head - By a Lymphedema Physical Therapist

Dry Brushing is suggested to be a tool to help keep the lymphatic system healthy and moving. Dry brushing for lymphatic drainage is used by some to try and reduce swelling. As a certified lymphedema therapist, I show you in this video how the lymphatic system works and what would be the correct technique and sequencing for lymphatic drainage.
After creating the dry brushing video for the body (see link below), It was highly requested to show how to properly dry brush the face and neck. It was asked to complete an updated routine without music and hair pulled back for a better visual, so here is the updated video! The original can be found here: https://youtu.be/KjljIFpuEQU
