Lymphatic Drainage in Orem, Utah
At Whole Body Cleansing & Wellness, we offer L.E.T. (Lymphatic Enhancement Therapy)—also known as Electro-Lymphatic Drainage—to clients in Salt Lake City, Orem, and Payson. Our gentle, non-invasive approach helps detoxify and decongest the tissues of your lymphatic system, promoting better health and overall wellness.
What is L.E.T Or Lymphatic Drainage?
L.E.T. is a safe, gentle, and effective method of moving and draining the lymphatic system. The brand name Lymphstar Enhancement Technology (LET)™ was created in 2006, representing a comprehensive technological innovation in wellness and rehabilitation therapy. Developed since the early 1990s, this approach has evolved from holistic therapies to widespread use in physical therapy, rehabilitation, lymphedema clinics, hospitals, and private practices—even integrative medical, pain management, and plastic surgery practices.
During this non-invasive procedure, which combines gentle manual stimulation techniques and a device called the Lymphstar Fusion, clients often experience relief from ailments affecting the lymphatic system. The Lymphstar Fusion uses three energetic modalities—physical vibration with sonic or acoustic waves, an electro-static field, and electro-pressure via multiple treatment points. All these emissions are extremely low in energy, making them gentle and safe. The lymphatic vessels respond well to these energies, resulting in enhanced relaxation and detoxification of the body.
What is the Lymphatic System?
The lymphatic system is vital to the body’s immune function, absorbing toxins and waste products from the interstitial tissue. Unlike the cardiovascular system, which uses the heart to pump blood, the lymphatic system isn’t pressurized by a pump. Instead, it relies on movement and massage to keep fluid flowing.
Lymph fluid travels through an intricate network of vessels to lymph nodes, where toxins, metabolic waste products, fats, and excess fluids are filtered. When the lymphatic system is congested, this fluid becomes thick, sticky, and unable to eliminate toxins effectively.
How does the lymphatic system become congested?
The body contains three times more lymph fluid than blood. With no central pump, it relies on exercise and movement. A sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, pollution, stress, chemicals, and illness contribute to stagnation. Over time, this leads to a buildup of toxins that can compromise health.
Other factors that lead to poor lymph circulation include:
-
Illness
-
Chemicals and pesticides in food
-
Pollution
-
Stress
-
Sedentary lifestyle
-
Nutrient poor diets that are high in fat, sugar, and preservatives
How Can You Detox the Lymph System? Introducing Electro-Lymphatic Drainage
Electro-Lymphatic Drainage (L.E.T. therapy) is an accelerated, one-hour method of cleansing and detoxifying the body. At Whole Body Cleansing & Wellness, we serve clients from Salt Lake City, Orem, and Payson who seek improved lymphatic health.
The XP2 device used in our sessions applies a gentle, non-invasive, light-touch therapy that’s proven more effective than manual methods alone. Each XP2 session is equivalent to approximately 8-10 manual lymphatic treatments. Since about 30% of the body’s lymph nodes are located six inches deep in the abdomen, it’s crucial to address these areas thoroughly.
By utilizing electro-sound therapy, we help break down congested lymphatic fluid. With blockages cleared, lymph fluid can flow effortlessly through the system, leaving you feeling calm, rejuvenated, and ready to embrace better health.
Although the following is not a video from our facility, it still gives a great demonstration on what L.E.T can do and the process of it!

What Can I Expect from a Lymphatic Enhancement Session?
L.E.T. is non-invasive. You’ll lie on a massage table under sheets, with some garments removed as needed. The therapist uses ionized glass bulbs on the skin, moving them in rhythmic motions to stimulate lymph flow and direct fluid to proper drainage sites. Areas may include the face, arms, chest/breasts, abdomen, legs, and back. Sessions are relaxing, with dimmed lights and soft music, and many clients even fall asleep during treatment.
How Long are Lymphatic Enhancement Sessions, and How Many Will I Need?
Sessions typically last about 60 minutes. Extended 90-minute sessions are available upon request. For best results, multiple sessions (1-2 times weekly for 6-8 weeks) are recommended, followed by maintenance treatments. Each individual’s needs vary, so your therapist will suggest a personalized plan to achieve your health goals—whether you’re visiting us from Salt Lake City, Orem, or Payson or surrounding areas.
How Will I Feel During and After a Treatment?
Most clients find the experience deeply relaxing. After treatment, some people feel energized, while others prefer to rest. Similar to other gentle detox therapies, you may notice increased bladder or bowel activity or mild, short-lived detox symptoms as your body eliminates toxins.
How do I Best Prepare for a Lymphatic Enhancement Treatment?
Drink 6-8 glasses of water before and after your session. Avoid applying lotions, oils, creams, or perfumes beforehand to achieve optimal results.
