I am so grateful Lisa is sharing her wisdom and techniques with us.
Truly a life-changing and enhancing method.

Once you have experienced Lisa Gainsley's healing hands it will be
hard to not want to experience that for a lifetime. Lisa's deep
knowledge about the body's essential detoxification pathway and
immune system booster, the often ignored Lymphatic system, has been
a big game changer in my life. And the best part is, I see the
results of her massage treatments immediately. And now with this
detailed book, I am beyond thrilled for the world to get a dose of
Lisa's kind and gentle but powerful and life changing knowledge and
be equipped to try some of it out on their own bodies.

Lisa was my yoga instructor and she was damned good-and she had to
be, because yoga is not for the squeamish, and you can't get any
more squeamish than me. She was completely invested in my progress
and was delighted when she saw improvement. She had a great sense
of humor (well, she laughed at my jokes). She was considerate. She
didn't talk too much. She didn't talk too little. She was
completely knowledgeable about muscles and joints and a lot of
scientific stuff about the body that I never paid attention to when
they taught it in school. In fact, I liked her and trusted her so
much, I even gave her the entry code to my house. Other than my
immediate family and my housekeeper, no one has that code. My
daughter would scream at me, "Dad, you can't give out our house
code to anyone!" I said to her, "You don't understand, honey, this
is Lisa." This book of hers is the culmination of a lifetime
devoted to improving people's lives. I was fortunate enough to be
one of those people.

In the last few years I have been drawn as part of my healing and
self-care to learn more about my body and with that came a deeper
understanding of my lymphatic system. It's such an integral part of
our bodies yet no one really tells you about it and how it works.
Through my discoveries I was fortunate enough to meet Lisa who
changed everything for me and taught me most of what I know about
my lymph and how important it is to staying healthy, removing
toxins, and looking and feeling good. She is truly an expert in
this field and has a very gentle and holistic approach. Through
seeing Lisa for treatments she taught me hands-on techniques I
could do myself on a daily basis, which for me has been a game
changer in the way I feel but also just in the way I connect to my
body.

Lymphatic massage is an incredibly therapeutic technique for
optimizing a person's health, improving his or her immune system,
and decreasing inflammation. I find that lymphatic massage is not
celebrated enough in the western medical world in regards to
preventive health and of course treating states of disease and
imbalance. Lisa Levitt Gainsley is a gifted, trusted, and
passionate certified lymphedema specialist. Her book is an
invaluable resource-we would all benefit from her wisdom and
experience. I, for one, know that I would be very excited to share
this book with my patients and colleagues!

in a person's health arsenal. Her book is an essential guide to
boost immunity that I recommend to anyone whether they are facing
