Maintaining optimal health and vitality often comes down to three essential elements: nourishment, exercise, and self-awareness. In Tony Robbins’s “10-day Pure Energy Challenge,” he highlights eight main factors—commonly called the 8 gifts—that help improve our energy levels and overall well-being. One of these is the practice he calls Lymphasising, which focuses on stimulating our lymphatic flow through exercise and movement. But what is Lymphasising really, and how does it relate to lymphatic drainage massage?
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll break down the concept of Lymphasising, its benefits, and why combining it with a specialised lymphatic drainage technique—like the Power Touch™ method offered at Atma Wellbeing—can significantly amplify your body’s natural detoxification process.
What is Lymphasising?
Lymphasising is essentially the act of exercising to stimulate the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is responsible for flushing out toxins, excess fluids, and waste from the body. When it operates effectively, you experience improved immunity, better circulation, and an overall sense of vitality. However, factors like a sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, or certain health conditions can slow this process, leaving you feeling sluggish and prone to fluid retention.
Tony Robbins emphasises that consistent movement—such as rebounding on a mini-trampoline or engaging in regular aerobic activity—can help “pump” the lymphatic fluid and encourage its optimal flow. But as beneficial as exercise is, sometimes the body needs an extra nudge to release stubborn fluid retention and toxins. That’s where a professional lymphatic drainage massage can truly make a difference.
Why Is Lymphasising Important for Your Health?
- Enhanced Detoxification
Lymph fluid carries waste, toxins, and unwanted materials out of the tissues and into the bloodstream for elimination. Stimulating lymph flow through Lymphasising helps speed up this natural detoxification process. - Improved Immune Function
A healthy lymphatic system supports the immune response by transporting white blood cells that help fight infections. Better lymph flow often translates into stronger immunity. - Reduced Fluid Retention
Exercise and targeted lymphatic drainage techniques help alleviate swelling and bloating caused by fluid build-up, known as oedema. This is particularly beneficial after surgeries or long periods of inactivity. - Boosted Energy Levels
Many people report feeling lighter, more energised, and even more focused once their lymphatic system is working efficiently. This is because toxins are removed faster, and nutrients are delivered more effectively throughout the body.
Tony Robbins’s 8 Gifts for Higher Energy
In Tony Robbins’s article, The 10-Day Pure Energy Challenge, the 8 gifts he recommends focus on improving our daily energy. These can be distilled into three main components:
Nourishment
- Emphasising whole foods, fruits, vegetables, water, and healthy oils.
- “You are what you eat” holds true—quality nourishment translates to better physical and mental performance.
Exercise
- Moving your body regularly ensures muscles, joints, organs, and even your skin stay healthy.
- Exercise also supports the lymphatic system, helping it move fluids and toxins out efficiently.
Self-Awareness
- Recognising signs that your body and mind need extra help—whether from an improved diet, more exercise, or specialised treatments like lymphatic drainage.
- Addressing imbalances as soon as you notice them can prevent more significant issues down the line.
How to Stimulate Lymph Flow
When you engage in activities like jogging, rebounding, or any moderate physical exercise, your muscles contract and help “pump” lymph fluid through the vessels. This is a form of natural Lymphasising and is highly effective for daily maintenance of your lymphatic health. However, if you experience chronic fluid retention or are recovering from surgery, you may need an extra boost.
The Power of Professional Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage massage involves gentle, rhythmic strokes that specifically target lymphatic vessels and nodes. At Atma Wellbeing we use a refined version of Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage known as Power Touch™, developed by co-owner Saura Rates. This innovative approach goes beyond traditional manual lymphatic drainage to detox and reshape your body, working more efficiently to:
- De-bloat and define curves by reducing swelling and stimulating metabolism.
- Improve circulation and speed up recovery after surgeries.
- Enhance your overall well-being, leaving you feeling refreshed, lighter, and rejuvenated.
The Science Behind Lymphatic Drainage
Research shows that efficient lymphatic drainage can have tangible health and aesthetic benefits:
- Reduced swelling and oedema: A 2010 study demonstrated that removing excess fluids can decrease thigh size and abdominal fat, improving body contours.
- Post-surgical recovery: A 2023 study found that water retention massage techniques, like lymphatic drainage, help reduce pain, swelling, and the risk of fibrosis following cosmetic and surgical procedures.
- Faster healing: By increasing lymph flow, you allow more efficient removal of waste products, speeding up the body’s natural healing process.
How Power Touch™ at Atma Wellbeing Complements Lymphasising

Traditional manual lymphatic drainage can be highly effective, but Power Touch™ enhances these benefits, offering visible results often in just one session.
Comprehensive Approach
Atma Wellbeing’s therapists are experts in tailoring each session to your unique body type, lifestyle, and needs. They use specific techniques to help you achieve a slimmer appearance, reduce fluid retention, and detoxify at a deeper level.
Holistic Care
The Power Touch™ technique integrates seamlessly with your self-care routine. Regular Lymphasising through exercise, coupled with periodic lymphatic drainage sessions, can help you maintain optimal health and appearance year-round.
Incorporating Lymphasising Into Your Daily Routine
Stay Hydrated
Drinking sufficient water ensures your lymphatic system has the fluid it needs to flush toxins effectively.
Move More
Simple activities like brisk walking, cycling, or yoga can help you stay active and keep lymph fluid flowing. Consider adding bouncing exercises on a mini-trampoline to further stimulate lymph flow.
Balanced Diet
Opt for whole, nutrient-dense foods and minimise processed foods and sugary drinks. A balanced diet supports healthy lymphatic function from within.
Schedule Regular Massage Sessions
If you live in or around Sydney—particularly the Northern Beaches region—schedule periodic Power Touch™ Lymphatic Drainage sessions at Atma Wellbeing in Dee Why. These treatments provide a thorough “reset” for your body’s natural detox pathways.
Is Lymphatic Drainage Massage Safe for Everyone?
While lymphatic drainage massage is generally considered safe and beneficial, individuals with pre-existing health conditions—such as infections, blood clots, or severe kidney or heart issues—should consult a medical professional before booking a session. Always inform your therapist of any health concerns or recent surgeries so they can tailor your treatment appropriately.
