Assisted Lymphatic Therapy (ALT) is a gentle treatment that uses a specialized device known as the XP2 that has been approved by the FDA . This device consists of handheld wands that combine warm vibrational waves, radiant light and waves of frequency to enhance the lymphatic system’s natural detoxification and immune functions.

Assisted Lymphatic Therapy (ALT) sessions at Rest and Restore are a soothing no touch massage using the wands of the xp2. Your Certified Lymphatic Therapist (CLT) will gently glide the wands of the XP2 machine over your skin, opening drainage pathways and sweeping the lymph along the directional flow. The whole experience is light-touch and non-invasive.

Each session lasts about an hour, and you can expect to walk out feeling wonderfully relaxed or you may experience a burst of energy. Some clients may experience symptoms of drainage after a treatment, and this can last up to 48 hours—totally normal and a sign that your body is working to cleanse itself. We always support our clients with water and minerals post session.

While all of our bodies are different, many people discover many benefits following an ALT session that may include:
