By James Baker, CMT, CST, MLDT, TTT The lymph system is part of the vascular system and an important component of the human immune system. Within the body, a network of lymphatic vessels carry a clear fluid called lymph (Latin for water) toward the heart. In a sense, lymph is the intermediary between the blood and the tissues of the body. Unlike the blood which is moved by the heart, lymph is pumped through the body only by muscle movement. In our sedentary modern world this has led to stagnation and contributes to the epidemic of obesity and immune system disorders. Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a powerful yet gentle tool for revitalizing the body systems by encouraging lymphatic flow and helping the body cleanse itself of toxins, as well as recycling still useful cells back into the circulatory (vascular) system. MLD can increase the flow of lymph more than x20. It provides increased energy and can help with any lifestyle or weight loss program. The MLD techniques are a specialized course of study resulting in certification (MLDT). Seek a qualified practitioner. Key to understanding the benefits of manual lymph drainage is understanding that the human lymphatic system touches every space in the body, including all the organs. By increasing the functionality of the lymphatic system, you eliminate built-up toxins and microscopic residue in the cellular system, and rejuvenate the organs—you literally increase the amount of space in your body. How specific systems are effected by MLD: • NECK/SKULL: Lymphatics for the neck and face and skull can help with migraine and headache issues, improve complexion, reduce wrinkles, and help with acne and other skin disorders. • LUNGS: Working with the lungs can decrease the impacts of bronchial and lung disease, such as asthma and COPD, and can increase the body's ability to absorb oxygen. MLD also can help clear a persistent cough or lingering symptoms from cold or flu. • LIMBS: Encouraging the body to retain less fluid in the legs, knees, ankles, and feet, can improve circulation and reduce edema, as well as the discomfort caused by swelling. • ABDOMEN: Lymphatic drainage for the stomach and intestines can improve elimination, reduce pain and promote restful sleep. Work with the kidneys and liver can help improve the filtration of toxins. IBS and Endometriosis symptoms respond to MLD. • ALL-OVER: Full body lymph drainage can help with allergy issues and generalized inflammation. • OTHER: When making changes to a medication regime or overcoming a drug or alcohol dependency, lymph drainage can help clear the cells and revitalize the vascular system. MLD work is like decluttering your home — refreshing and creating space and making room for new habits/ways of being. Completing an initial sequence of 3 to 10 sessions of manual lymph drainage will greatly improve quality of life. Monthly or bi-monthly maintenance and regular exercise with a healthful, vegetable-based diet, will support continued improvements in the lymphatic system. How to Help Yourself There are several simple and effective ways to help support and cleanse your own lymphatic system: • Get plenty of moderate exercise and drink lots of clean alkaline water, • Eat locally, organically and seasonally as much as possible. • “Thump your Thymus” regularly (tap with fingers at the center of chest on the sternum) • Juniper essential oil applied topically (skin) or diffused (inhalation), also Frankincense alone or combined with Juniper. • Loud music (over 60db) is not good for the lymphatic system. Listen to gentle soft music. • Stretch: Touch your toes and reach for the the ceiling at least twice a day. • Avoid fried foods in general. If you're having lymphatic issues stop eating all fried foods. • When fat cells break down the lymphatic system removes them from the body. If you have made lifestyle changes and one area is resisting (not changing with the rest of you) some MLD can help restore lymphatic function to that area. How do I know WHEN to have lymph drainage? Indications that your body would benefit from lymph work include the following: 1. Feeling heavy, sluggish, dull, unmotivated 2. Fluid retention or chronic inflammation 3. Chronic or emerging allergies 4. Long-lasting illness or pain 5. Persistent headache or persistent aches and pains When should I AVOID Manual Lymph Drainage? Lymph drainage is contraindicated (not recommended) in the following situations: • For people with major cardiac problems, high or low blood pressure issues, unless they consult with their doctor or cardiologist. • For women who are pregnant or nursing unless they have a specific medical condition and their doctor recommends it. • Thrombosis and phlebitis sufferers should not have MLD. • People with active cancers should not have MLD. What should I do and/or expect after treatment? • Drink plenty of clean preferably alkaline water to help your system flush. • Avoid caffeine. • Be gentle with yourself. • MLD can leave you feeling slightly ill (but not sick) for up to 12 hours as the toxins clear out of your system. People usually feel more energetic and uplifted within 24 hours.

We are looking for full or part-time licensed massage therapists to lease space $250-500 a month
By: Pam Bradow, Glacial Peak Cryotherapy
Fargo’s 2019 Minimum Temperature: -33° F GPC’s 2019 Minimum Temperature: -240° F Now why would someone in Fargo want to endure an environment of -240° F? The answer is health and wellness. Glacial Peak Cryotherapy’s Whole Body Cryosauna became a blessing to many of their clients who each are targeting different goals. When a client visits Glacial Peak, they are welcomed and introduced to the variety of services they offer, including the Whole Body Cryotherapy. To do the Whole Body Cryotherapy, the individual wears Glacial Peak’s socks, gloves, slippers, boxers, and a robe. After entering the Cryosauna, the robe is removed and the -180 to -240° F air surrounds the individual for a session length of 2-3 minutes. At the end of 2-3 minutes, the robe is returned and the client goes to their dressing room to warm up. During this duration of ultra-cold air, only the outer half millimeter of the skin gets cold. This triggers the skin receptors to tell the brain to bring the body’s blood closer to the core. Here, it gets re-oxygenated, picks up nutrients and enzymes, and when the client exits the Cryosauna and warms up; this rich blood gets an accelerated circulation. Over the next 48 to 72 hours, this blood goes to affected areas of the body that undergo chronic pain, hold inflammation, store lactic acid, etc. and filters out the toxins of the body replacing them with the proteins and enzymes needed in that particular area. The process accelerates the recovery process and regeneration of tissues allowing for decreased pain and inflammation. Because of this mode of action, Whole Body Cryotherapy, which was originally developed for Rheumatoid Arthritis, has been adopted by numerous people seeking a variety of its benefits. These benefits include: Accelerated Metabolism Increased Energy Accelerated Healing Process Reduced Chronic Pain Reduced Inflammation Reduced Stress and Anxiety Elevated Mood Accelerated Muscle Recovery Increased Flexibility and Range of Motion Improved Sleep Quality Clearer Skin Tone Boosted Immune System These benefits result from the systemic, holistic approach that oxygenating the blood naturally creates. The body’s blood is fortified and equipped to properly heal the body the way it was designed to. At Glacial Peak Cryotherapy, we value the body’s mechanism of healing and wish to aid in that recovery by giving it the extra boost it needs. We also value a multi-faceted approach to healing and have worked with our clients’ chiropractors, massage therapists, doctors, acupuncturists, etc. to provide the best care possible. When a client comes in with chronic pain in their back, the Whole Body Cryotherapy can reduce the inflammation surrounding the spine and the chiropractors are able to manipulate the target area with less resistance and with a longer-lasting adjustment. So, why can’t we just stand outside in the cold for 20 minutes and receive the same benefits? As pleasant as that sounds in Fargo, it unfortunately is not cold enough to reach the therapeutic temperatures the Cryosauna reaches. Additionally, because of Fargo’s humidity and windchill combination, the risk of frostbite is far too high. In the Cryosauna, there is no moisture and the extremities are covered so that 3 minutes there is little to no chance of frostbite and the cold is much more bearable. People have little concept of what -240° F feels like and please do not let that be the reason to scare you away from better health and wellness! Glacial Peak Cryotherapy offers a number of other services for your individual needs. These include: Cryo-Facials: A relaxing, 10-minute process of cold air exposure to the scalp, face, and neck can improve skin clarity, decrease acne, reduce wrinkles, build collagen, relieve migraines, and stimulate hair growth. NormaTec Compression Therapy: No cold involved! Enjoy a relaxing 30-minute session in arm, leg, or hip sleeves which compress the limb in upward motions to work with your body’s natural vasoconstriction to increase circulation. Athletes love it because it works out lactic acid! Cryo-T Shock: This extraordinary, customizable fat reduction, collagen production, and cellulite busting thermal shock device only takes one hour to dramatically contour the body. Alternating between heat and cold, the device freezes fat cells which are later digested and removed by the body’s system. Additionally, loose skin from weight loss is also tightened and definition is revealed! Local Cryotherapy: A targeted stream of ultra-cold air serves as a more effective ice pack for injuries. The area’s inflammation is reduced and circulation is increased to accelerate recovery for a sprained ankle, sore neck, etc. Come see what -240° F feels like and what the benefits feel like afterwards. Call in or stop in to ask us about our introductory offers! We offer a 2/$50 or a 5/$99 offer for your first Whole Body Cryotherapy Sessions that come with complimentary 30 minute NormaTec Compression Therapy Sessions! The Whole Body Cryotherapy Session is so efficient, it is done faster than pumping gas! Trust us, it’s far also far less painful than pumping gas in the winter here and you’re the one who will feel refueled!
