Technique for Detoxification through the skin
Skin eliminates about 10% of our metabolic waste i.e. old unwanted cells and toxic substances. Dry
skin brushing clears the old, stale sweat on the surface of the skin plus the sebum (oily secretion)
which allows fresh sebum to be produced helping to keep the skin waterproof. So by skin brushing it
will clear the stale secretions and allow fresh elimination of toxins, through the skin to take place and
ensure that pores do not become blocked.
The lymphatic system does not have a pump, like the blood has the heart, so dry skin brushing helps
to stimulate lymph to dump toxins through the skin. It moves both lymph and blood back to the heart
to aid in efficient circulation.
Additionally dry skin brushing encourages cell renewal by removing the
dead outer skin cells and improving surface skin circulation. Dry skin
brushing is said to be more cleansing than using soap and water!
Skin is extremely absorbent, like a large sponge, so care needs to be
taken in what is put on the skin. For example anti-perspirants clog up
the lymph glands under the arm and allow the introduction of heavy
metals like aluminium into the body.
Dry Skin Brushing Technique
If you fancy incorporating skin brushing into your daily routine then you will need a natural, non-
synthetic bristle, brush. It is helpful if it has a long detachable handle so you can reach your back!
Always brush from the feet up and down from the neck towards the heart, not away from it. Start at
the soles of the feet, ankles, calves, thighs, buttocks. Then brush up the front and then back of the
torso as far as the heart. Work up the hands and arms and then down the neck, chest and upper
back towards the heart. Avoid brushing the face as the skin is too sensitive and only brush gently
over the breasts.
Dry skin brushing could be incorporated into a daily routine. It is lovely to follow up with your normal
shower and then finish with a hot/cold shower technique (see separate sheet). Both will stimulate
movement of lymph and blood.
