News Flash: The “Body” Brush isn’t just for the body.
TLB Small vs Large Small = neck & face (longer, softer bristles)
Large = face, neck, crown & full-body (shorter, firmer bristles)
💦 Muscle Attachments & Myofascial Tension
Initially, we referred to the large TLB as the “body” brush, but it’s deceiving since it’s best for the neck, décolleté and working along the collarbone where there is an abundance of attachments and fascial restrictions that can lead to a taut and/or aged appearance.
In addition, there’s a significant amount of lymph nodes above and below the collarbone, which are crucial in filtering lymph from the entire body.
The Lymphatic Brush creates movement and disbands any “stickiness” and tangles along the collarbone that can pull on the surrounding structures, causing pain, discomfort or lack of mobility.
