Electro Lymphatic Therapy

Soma Wellness is one of only a couple of places in Nashville, TN that offers ELT by Certified professionals. Read more below about the health benefits of a functioning lymphatic system and how ELT can play a part in that.

 

What is ELT?

Electro Lymphatic Therapy (ELT) is a gentle, non-invasive technique to stimulate the proper flow and drainage of the lymphatic system. The Lymphatic System partners with our immune system to send healthy, oxygenated, and nutrient-filled cells to fight off any virus’ or inflammation found in the body. However, due to the heavy load of toxins that the body routinely takes in from food and the environment, the lymph system gets compromised and congested, leading to disease, including cancers.

How does ELT work?

A combination of vibration, light, and micro-current waves help to stimulate the flow of lymph, causing the dissociation of sticky proteins trapped in the interstitium. When trapped proteins release their bond, the stagnate lymph is liberated and will flow out into its normal filtration and reabsorption channels.

Your Lymphatic System

Since the Lymphatic system plays a paramount role in the immune system and is only stimulated through movement as the lymph has no circulatory system internally, as the heart does for the blood, the proper assistance of flow for the lymphatic system is a must for overall wellness, and overcoming any disease in the body.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What do the levels mean?

A: At Soma Wellness, we use levels 1, 2, & 3 to signify the depth of experience our therapists bring to your sessions. Rest assured, every therapist uses the same machine, and you will receive the same benefits with every level therapist.

When deciding which level to schedule, the higher the therapist's experience, the more they’ve worked with people in a range of different situations and can provide answers to your questions based on what they’ve seen.

Another consideration is your availability and the therapists availability matching to be the most convenient for you.

Q: What do we recommend for getting started and treatment?

A: We recommend adults start with a 60min session, this allows you to receive a full body treatment. After the session, your therapist will let you know what they noticed and how long of a session you’ll need going forward to address you specific needs.

We use a seven-session protocol with a 25% discount to get the most benefits from this therapy in resolving your specific situation. This can be purchased after your first session and getting a recommendation from the therapist. With 8-10 sessions, most people will experience alleviation of any condition that involves inflammation.

Kids 2-12 only need 30-minute sessions. A package of seven— 30-minute sessions can help with chronic childhood conditions such as recurring ear infections, tonsilitis, eczema, etc.
