Dry Brushing for Lymphatic Drainage of the Face, Head, and Neck - 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, but it's mostly used for skin health and signs of aging, via exfoliation. It's a tool for lymphatic drainage massage, as well, but must be used gently to avoid skin breakdown. Generally, most videos or blogs will tell you to brush towards the heart, but as a certified lymphedema therapist, I show you in this video how the lymphatic system works and what would be the best technique to do dry brushing for lymphedema or your lymphatic system to be most effective. It's important to note that Dry Brushing has anecdotal evidence only at this time, but if cleared by your provider and done safely, some may find benefit.
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. So, in this video, I show how the head and neck lymphatic system works and what would be the best technique to do dry brushing for your lymphatic system.

Hello everyone! I have taken the feedback from another video about remembering to pull my hair back and for all of the newer, face videos I have made this switch (along with removing all music). I appreciate the kind, respectful feedback. And going forward I’ll adjust it 😊 thank you for the grace as I still learn how to do this video thing! 🤷🏼♀️😂
Hi, how do you drain one side of the fece if you’d had some lymph nodes removed?
Your videos are amazing!❤️
Could you please answer "how often to do this"?
@@jica4141 yes, there is no mandatory frequency. Some may do it once a day, some may do it once a week. Whatever works for them!
You are doing brillianty.I feel relaxed just watching you explaing this.Very happy to find this video and I already have body and face brushes.Thank you
You are a really good teacher. Straightforward to the point. With a good example. And you didn't waste a lot of time. Thank you very much!
What a grounded young woman. Very helpful! Thank you!
I just started dry brushing my face and it feels so amazing! Thanks for the tips on the direction of brushing for proper lymph drainage💛
Great explanations. Showing the drawing at the same time was very helpful.
I don’t have any problems . I just do these lymph drainage massage because my skin tone was uneven and my face gets so puffy from PCOS these massages make me feel beautiful I tried only for 3 days and I got many compliments from family that my face looks much slimmer and brighter . So I’m guessing this helps brighten skin.
Beautiful young lady. Relaxing to watch and very knowledgable. So refreshing to watch. Thank you
I love the way you present your videos. Your explanations are thorough & to the point. Thanks for the tips regarding small strokes versus circular motion. The illustration that depicts the flow of drainage was particularly helpful.
The first time I used a dry brush on my face, it was slightly sensitive. That quickly diminished in the following days. The stimulated feeling afterwards feels so good. I can't miss a day now. It has soften my skin texture as well. I wish I would have started this practice years ago. I appreciate tips on promoting proper lymph drainage. Thanks!
My tonsils have been swollen for over a year, I’m really excited to try this!
Very good video. I'm an LMT and always do this method on the neck and face with my hand. Clients love it. The gentle light touch is very relaxing. Then I gently massage with Rosehip oil.
Thank you! This video was great and I briefly scanned the others you have and I can't wait to try them!!
Thanks cause I had no clue how to use my dry brush. I received one in my subscription box.
Thank you Kelly! I swear that I can feel immediate improvement. And that’s surprising, because so little pressure is being applied to the skin tissue. It’s hard to visualize what’s happening under the skin, in the lymphatic system-it’s hard to imagine that enough fluid is moving to make any difference. Yet, I can feel the effect, even if I can’t visualize it.
Ooooh I need to get a mini brush and try this! I usually do my body, but hadn't thought about face. Thanks! xx
your codes on dry brushing are the best i’ve found🤍 thanks for sharing!
Excellent information delivery,thank you
3:34 starts .
Here I thought this brush wasn't working, it was such a light touch , UNTIL I SAW YOUR VIDEO...I am going to continue and I thank you for this video and all your videos....
Dry brushing is very good for skin, it helps to tighten and smoothen skin. You will be amazed by the smoothness of your skin after brushing for a week. Cellulite will also look less prominent after sometime. It declogs pores, black heads and white heads also loosen. There are just too many benefits
Good teacher, pleasant voice too. Thank you
👋 hi, thank you for thoroughly showing and talking us through this process 😊❤
So happy watching your video. Thank you for sharing this video . More power and GOD bless.
Thank you for this. I had a recent injury which resulted in major bruising throughout my face. The discoloration has lasted over a month and this exercise helped speed up the process and noticeable after just 2-3 days.
Thank you! I could feel all of the lymph draining as I did this. Had to clear my throat so many times and when I was done I was soooo much less puffy 👍❤️
Yes. I'm so happy. 😊
Thank you, I will try this!
Started today dry brushing my face and it felt amazing for my sinus issues. Thank you!
Great videos and content! One interesting observation: you mention that dry brushing is a “new technique” for lymphatic drainage. It is relatively new in America, but it is an old ancient technique of Ayurveda used in India, about 2000 years old or more!
WOW I just said the same thing!
Was thinking the same.
She’s a medical therapist that treats cancer patients. I think she means that it’s a new treatment, Ie only newly recommended for cancer patients with lymphoedema issues post surgery/chemotherapy.
Yes!
Yeah. Definitely not new at all
Great video, thank you. Yes I find dry brushing works fantastic for me. Thank you for this face version :)
Blessed Work😊
This was a good video, very helpful, thanks.
Thank you from România !🤗
Fantastic info.
I just never knew how to dry brush correctly. Thank you. Just subbed! 👍🏽💕
Welcome! Thanks for joining us 🙂
Finally! The answer to a popular question I receive!
How to Clean Your Dry Brush (Dry Brushing for the Body): czcams.com/video/S_X3WFdtXnI/video.html
I'm wondering if i compromised my skin brush after I used it in the shower for a long time not realizing I should've used it dry? Will it have the same impact after using it in the shower for so long? woops!!
Thank you for this good information !
Got our dry brushes today for the family. I'll definitely try this on my mum because she broke her wrist but it still swells after 2 months. I have high hopes!
Great video, Are there any suggestions regarding the care of your brush and other words how often should you wash it, ie put it in the dishwasher washing machine ect and how often should you replace it?
Good morning, I found your channel just by chance and thank goodness I did. I love your exercises and advice. But, would like to know if there is a softer brush to use? I purchased the ones you suggested through Amazon. But, they are a little harsh. Thank you for providing such great information.
Thanks for the video ❤❤
Hi Kelly. I clicked the link in your video. Can you tell which brush and which brush for the body do you recommend best? There are so many choices. Thank you.
This is amazing, thank you!
You’re so welcome!
Thanks for this
Using a mini trampoline or rebounder is hands-down the best thing you can do for your lymphatic system! Even a gentle ‘health bounce’ works. If you can, get a good one. 💕
💯 you can feel the drainage happening
Will rebounding even stimulate lymph flow in the face for example? Or just mainly legs etc
@@GM-bq6zo - I believe it’s a whole-body benefit. You know, “the leg 🦵🏼 bone’s connected to the, hip bone🎶”
Yes the trampoline is great, but I like dry brushing to remove dead skin .
Is bouncing on a yoga ball effective too?
Thanks for sharing this professional info and clear explanation. Will this help for puffy eyes?
Puffy eyes means you are deficient in iodine.
Such good info! Would this be effective with a jade roller?
Brushing, actually, VACUUM CLEANING,all the dead skin! Now applying warm compress. Then Osea oil. Thank you for your help!
This is awesome thank you
Thank you very much
Thank you very helpful
I think it is the same our face skin is different I love it I will try also even I am getting old
EXCELLENT INFO.CLEAR.CONCISE CONTENT.THOROUGH.THANK YOU.WILL WARCH YOUR OTHER VIDEOS.
Thank you for the video and all the helpful links! Would you recommend cupping for lymphatic drainage and cellulite and if so, can you make a how to video?
Such a humble spirit. Thanks for the work that you do. I'm still trying to find the brush:-)
That was so kind of you to say. Thank you! 😊
I can't find the link with the brush set she recommends?
I have occlusive DVT. For the last 14 years I have had excessive swelling and edema. I start out looking really good in the day but as the day goes on I have so much pooling. I need to just make a daily routine of doing these lymphedema exercises
Thank you, how often can this be done?
Thank you
Interesting. I've been doing this for years.
Great informative video. I wonder no more. 👍🏽
Can you do a video for the abdomen? 🤞🏾🤗
Hi.. thank you so much for this beautiful video! I have a question. When you say the fluid leaves, how does it do that? I'm unclear about what happens to it as it's moved around. Thank you!
Very useful- My eyes are swollen - is there any dry brushing around the eyes technique
Helpfull videos
What’s the main difference between massaging the lymph areas and dry brushing or is it basically the same as far as the benefits? I’ve tried the brushing for other areas like my legs to help with cellulite and brushing the lymphatic areas up towards the proper direction but I didn’t see a difference and someone mentioned it has to be “deep tissue massage. I’m new to learning about the lymphatic system.
Looks interesting
Hello, thank you for the great videos and help information. I've started following the routine for about a week now. I have developed a rash below my collar bone s on both sides.
Am I rubbing too hard? Or is this a detox response?
Please let me know.
So helpful
Hii, thank you very much you are very sweet and professional. I love your videos. Please can u help me by providing a drainage massage to my condition ( I had 150 lymph nodes removed from my neck) from both sides. Where to guide the drainage? Not to the ears cz I don't have any nodes there!
Thank you😊
Hi Kelly, I have trouble with drainage in my abdomen, both above and below my belly button. How do you recommend dry brushing these areas?
I just started dry brushing after watching your video . Three weeks ago I had foot surgery...can not bathe. This technique is going to change my skin!
Yes! It has transformed my skin! Like baby soft and NO tiny bumps anywhere. 🤗 I adore my skin!
Will this help improve hearing? Will it help reduce wrinkles on the face? Thank you.
Thank you so much for your video! Will this help tighten a jawline?
Thank you for the useful information. Interesting fact: You'll find mention of dry brushing in Dostoevsky's "War and Peace". In a bivouac of the battlefield one of the generals turns to yell at his orderly because he's not brushing the general hard enough.
Just a little correction: "War and Peace" was written by Tolstoy, not Dostoevsky.
@@rujulka aargh! You're right!😲
How much do you know about valves? and that you have to caress lymph in the opposite sense, to facilitate valve lubrification and kicking-in, and then carry on with the usual caresses. Thanks much

Thank you so much for sharing 🙏💜…
Thanks!
I've been having stiffness in my neck and head area for a while and upon studying my iridology pictures yesterday, it appears I have a bunch of lymphatic problems...
I'm on a raw food diet. But want to start doing this + lymph herbs to clean my body more
Thank you for this video! What is the best way to clean the brush afterwards and how often should a person do that? Thank you!
Is it good to dry brush when you have fibromyalgia?
Thank you so much. Very informative!, One suggestion you may want to put your hair up so we can view everything clearly.
Hi is it safe to use a dry brush and jade roller or gua sha in one sitting?

thanks!
Thanks for this video! And for teaching us the correct way to brush! I'd be buying my mom a brush ASAP for her legs and sending her this video.
I have a request, please consider Hindi subtitles. Especially if you have some following in India. A lot of old people, like my mom, suffer from Varicose Veins. It would be sooooo helpful if she could understand you directly from the video.
Thank you so much for the kindness and the feedback. I will look into that!
Cancer Rehab PT: Can you do a video for lymphatic drainage that seems to be stagnant in the area below the knee up to the inner groin area. I had liposuction done on my knees years ago and I'm concerned that my lymph glands might have been injured or damaged and would like your thoughts on how I can dry brush to help drain this area. The surgery was done on the inner knee and on top of the knee. Thank you.
So very very useful and REWARDING INFORMATION. I'M SO AMAZED A SIMPLE TOUCH REMOVES AND RELIEVES PAIN... CHRONIC PAIN. AFTER 2 DAYS OF YOUR SIMPLE SIMPLE TECHNIQUES, I FEEL YEARS YOUNGER HONESTLY.. THIS IS NOT A PILL THIS IS NOT A SPECIAL DEVICE YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS IS NOT SOMEONE YOU HAVE TO PAY YOU DO IT YOURSELF FOR FREE AND IT WORKS AND I'M HERE TO TELL YOU I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING UNTIL I SAW THESE VIDEOS!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
TYSM ♡ God bless you.
Can we do this on regular basis or twice a week?
Hi Kelly, can i use foundation brush for dry brushing my face?
Need to find a super soft brush!
IAwesome! love this video! I always have a puffy face & sinus pressure...hopefully this will help! I currently do dry brushing on the backs of my thighs. I brush from knee-cap to buttocks is this correct? I didn't see a link to purchase the small soft dry brush you demonstrated with. May I please have that link as I feel dry brushing my head region will be very benefical!
Really informative and I love skin brushing but it certainly isn't a "new" technique but it's been around in other cultures as a healing modality. Thanks for sharing and getting this info out.
Thank you
How many times a week this brushing shoul be done?
Do you mind relinking the brush you're using? The Amazon link is not working.
Excelente
can you please add the link for the dry brushes.. I can't seem to find it
Hi, can I do brushing having armpit lymph nodes dissection, can I do any kind of lymph drainage massages or brushing. I will appreciate if you find time to answer.
Thanks beforehand.
Would dry brushing help the endolymphatic system. I suffer from bilateral Meniere’s and begin non positional vertigo
