(2) Lymphatic massage is also useful for people with sports injuries.
a. When applied after neuromuscular massage, lymphatic massage helps to clear the tissue of debris and reduce the minor oedema.
b. Repeated lymphatic massage whilst healing from a sports injury can help to enhance the tissue regeneration process by keeping the tissue as healthy as possible.
(3) lymphatic massage can also help the scarring process by enhancing circulation and immunity.
