The correct way to skin brush!

[BOTTOLOTTO]

Thanks so much for sharing this Information!!!!!

@BrandiOwensRNCLT My question is where would one go to learn this approach? I am a massage therapist and I would like to learn more. Feels like the Universe is pointing me in that direction... ;) Oh, and by the way my liver count has been up. I had blood work before, during, and after the juice fast. Liver count has not resolved to normal levels.

@BrandiOwensRNCLT Brandi, thanks so much for the detailed info on the watersheds. I had a rash in both armpits for a year. Starts out moist, bumpy and extremely itchy. Area dries out and starts over again. No oozing. No scaling. Tested for candida - negative. Have tried so many things. THEN I juiced for 19 days - just juice and water. After breaking fast the rash cleared up and I was free of it for almost 6 months. I started rebounding & dry brushing 3 days ago & I'm breaking out again.

@BrandiOwensRNCLT Would you consider doing a full brushing video follow up to this? I try to follow it and your comments, but I get a bit confused.

Move that lymph people

[sugarfreeraw]

This is awesome information. I was wondering about the neck and nodes there...what direction do you brush on your neck to move the lymph? Thanks so much!~ Blessings

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@sugarfreeraw For the neck, after you open at the collar bone you will start under the chin (keeping right & left seperate,remember the watershed) and brush under jaw to the ear up behind ear to the hair line, then straight down to the collar bone, making a big #7 motion. Do each motion 3 times. Then a shorter #7 motion from under chin to edge of jaw bone, then down to collar bone. Next under chin stright down to collar bone catching all of the front of the throat parallel with watershed.

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@BrandiOwensRNCLT The next step: start top of chin brush out to ear lobe and down to collar bone. Next create circular motions from temple(next to eye) to jaw line, do 3X. Follow with sweeps from temple to collar bone 3X. Next step, place edge of brush along side of nose touching the top of nose/inside eyebrow, brush stroke down nose until end of brush is at the base of nose then brush along cheek UNDER cheek bone out to ear, the down to collar bone.Then brush from between eyebrows & center

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@BrandiOwensRNCLT of forehead out to temple area and stright down to collar bone. Cover the entire forehead in this manner. Follow up the face brushing with sweeps down the neck to be sure you haven't left anything behind. With this you will help clear your sinuses, remove sagging and puffiness, reduce signs of aging and repair skin.

Hope this helps :)

@BrandiOwensRNCLT As a child I had severe eczema on my face. One of the ways my doctor used to clear my skin was to use a strong steroid ointment in short spurts; so my skin is quite thin on my face. Would it be okay if I dry brushed the skin on my face? And if yes is it best to brush in circular motions.

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@gracecathlyn My apologies for the delay in response here... it would absolutely be ok to brush the face, or any area of the body that has been damaged by steroid use. What you would actually be doing is repairing the skin, creating an increase in elastin and collagen production restoring tone and texture to the skin. Paper thin skin can be restored to the tone and texture of normal skin. Please look to the above comment for directions as there are many watersheds directing lymph flow.

wow, very informative. thank you for posting this video. I ike that Brandi was also an experienced ICU RN. She is able to explain the idea of lymphatic drainage from a clinical point of view, rather than just theoretical.

[MikeTBK]

I have been a patient of Brandi and she is truly amazing! I have learned so much from her and she has helped me on my way to healing. If you are in the area I would highly recommend getting a treatment by her.

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@MikeTBK Thank you :)

[the528HZshow]

wow, very very grateful for this info and insight... thank you!

[cheleyish]

Thank you SOOOO much for this video. I've been dry brushing every day and it was so nice to see it done the correct way.

[Inhisgarden]

I was using a loofa, wonder if that's ok

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@Inhisgarden Loofa is fine as long as it's not too rough to use it dry

Great video. I only recently started using a brush but wasn't using it correctly.

[RainbowLogic]

At about 10:50 she says "you want to have the day go by and have those absorbed in"

The discussion was about lotions and oils etc.. and not using them, so am I assuming correctly that she is referring to the bodies own natural oils being absorbed? I know that vitamin D is something that the body produces on to the surface of the skin and needs time to be absorbed rather than showered and off.

[BrandiOwensRNCLT]

@RainbowLogic My reference to allowing the lotions and oils to absorb is just for timing with the dry skin brushing. Ideal is before your shower in the morning, before the moisture and lotions are applied. You won't achieve the optimal results found with brushing when the skin is wet, so that was why I suggested brushing at night if a morning routine isn't possible. You will be working to enhance what your body does naturally with skin brushing, natural body oils are perfect no worries there :)
