Are you spending a fortune on your face but still feeling swollen everywhere else? The problem might be under your skin, not on it.

Dr. Kate Dee, a board-certified physician and founder of the Medspa Board, sits down with Shannon Davenport, founder and CEO of Esker Beauty. Shannon spent 12 years as a trend forecaster before ancient Greek bathing rituals inspired her to reinvent a tool bathers once carried to the baths. Dr. Dee has been using it at home, and she’s got a few things to say.

Your body has a second circulatory system that moves fluid in one direction only, and it depends on your muscles to keep it flowing. Long days at a desk let that fluid pool. Rubbing your skin the wrong way works against it. Scrub too hard, and you can damage the barrier that keeps allergens out.

Dr. Dee explains how it all works in plain English, and Shannon walks you through a five-minute routine you can try tonight.

If you’ve invested in your face and ignored the rest of your body, you’ll hear why that needs to change. Med spa providers will come away with clear, safe talking points for patients asking about lymphatic massage.
