Circulation and Detoxification Therapies are designed to improve the movement of blood, lymph, and interstitial fluids throughout the body. These systems are responsible for delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues while removing toxins, metabolic waste, and inflammatory byproducts.

When circulation is impaired or the lymphatic system becomes stagnant, toxins accumulate, inflammation increases, and healing slows down. These therapies restore proper fluid movement, allowing the body to detoxify naturally and accelerate recovery.

This therapy directly supports Pillar 2: Fluid Dynamics, which focuses on clearing stagnation and restoring the body’s internal environment for healing.

How Circulation and Detoxification Therapies Work

These therapies stimulate the body’s natural transport and clearance systems. They help by:

  • Improving blood circulation
  • Enhancing lymphatic drainage
  • Removing toxins and metabolic waste
  • Reducing inflammation and swelling
  • Improving oxygen and nutrient delivery
  • Supporting immune system function

This creates the optimal internal conditions for tissue repair and recovery.

Therapies Offered

Deep Oscillation uses gentle electrostatic impulses to stimulate fluid movement deep within tissues.

Benefits:

  • Reduces swelling and inflammation
  • Improves lymphatic drainage
  • Accelerates healing
  • Reduces pain

This therapy is especially effective for post-injury recovery and chronic inflammation.

The Perrin Technique is a specialized manual therapy that stimulates lymphatic drainage, particularly around the spine and nervous system.

  • Slow healing injuries

benefits

  • Improves circulation
  • Enhances detoxification
  • Reduces inflammation
  • Accelerates healing
  • Improves tissue health
  • Supports immune function

Why These Therapies Are Important

The body cannot heal efficiently if waste products and toxins accumulate in tissues. Poor circulation creates an environment where inflammation persists and recovery slows

By restoring proper fluid movement, these therapies help cleanse the body and create optimal conditions for healing.

Role in the McDonald Method™

Circulation and Detoxification Therapies support:

Pillar 2: Fluid Dynamics (The Clearance System)

They remove toxic buildup, reduce inflammation, and prepare the body for neurological reset and cellular regeneration.
