X’Tract
What is X’Tract?
X-Removal of Toxins by Releasing and Accelerating Cellular Transformation is a hands-on technique that assists the body in releasing and cleansing toxins such as heavy metals, chemicals, microbial compounds, and protein metabolism by-products. By cleansing the lymphatic system, unwanted and dangerous waste is removed from the body; the skin, liver, intestines, kidneys, and lymphatic system can function with improved capacity and perform at optimal levels. X’Tract Lymphatic Cleanse is great for individuals looking to improve overall health and well-being.
Frequently Asked Questions about an X’Tract
How do I know if I Need an X'tract Session?
If you’ve experienced sleep issues, illness, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, swelling in the legs (or anywhere else), it’s a good sign you could benefit from X'tract. It is a relaxing process that is generally not painful and can promote lymph health and natural drainage. It’s a gentle technique that does a lot of work in the body. You’ll be surprised at how great you feel and how much energy you have for the rest of the day.
What should I wear? Please wear or bring loose fitting clothing. This can be shorts and tank top or bathing suit.
How long does it take? A full-body X'tract Session takes about 1 hour. Plan for a little extra time for the first session.
How many sessions will I need?
6 sessions one week apart is suggested. After that, you will know if your body is able to keep the toxins moving out on its own, or if you will need more sessions. Please note that you can do one or as many as you need. It’s totally up to you!
What does it mean to have an X’Tract Session for the Lymphatic System?
The lymph system runs throughout your body. You have lymph nodes running from your head to your feet. Lymph is a fluid that flows through your lymph vessels to lymph “nodes” (which are like storage compartments). Lymphatic fluid takes toxins and wastes with it to help clear your body. The lymphatic system is similar to your circulatory system, except that there isn’t a central organ that pumps lymph. To move through your body, it requires body movements and gravity. However, gravity and exercise sometimes aren’t enough to effectively move your lymph through your body. This can cause a range of problems, from sickness to lethargy. In this case, it helps to have an X'tract session is to use hand movements to get your lymph nodes draining and your lymph flowing again. X'tract can also encourage the natural drainage of lymph after a treatment.

How does the Lymphatic System Work?
The lymphatic system is the secondary system of circulation in the body with the major task of cleaning and nourishing the cells. Sounds simple enough, but without it, we wouldn’t survive long. The lymphatic system is a sort of go-between from the blood circulation to the individual cells. Lymph is a clear fluid containing nutrients and oxygen similar to blood but without the red and white corpuscles. It comes from the general circulation and is deposited around the cells to keep them nourished. The cells are able to discard waste and toxic materials into this fluid. The lymphatic vessels pick up this waste and any excess fluid from around cells and transport it, via the lymph nodes, back into the general circulation. It’s a one-way shuttle, so lymph should only ever flow in one direction – away from the cells and towards the heart. Though lymph vessels are found throughout the body, about 70 percent of them are located just below the skin with connective tissue, collagen, and elastin surround it to hold it in place. If abnormal fluid builds up it stretches the skin and deforms the lymph vessels, opening it up through the body. The lymphatic system only allows 2-3 liters (70-100 oz. f) of lymph to filter through per day. The natural flow of this fluid is necessary to flush out the overabundance of protein that can build up. It is this protein in the lymph vessels that absorbs water and begins to cause swelling and pain results. It will also collect fats and cell fragments of toxins, viruses, and bacteria. These fragile vessels work to pick up fluids between the cell spaces when gentle pressure is applied to them from increased fluid build-up, muscle contractions, or the pressure of an X'tract practitioners hands. By using the X'tract method the practitioner can stimulate the lymph system to work more efficiently and help it move the lymph fluids back to the heart. Furthermore, by freeing vessel pathways, X'tract can help retrain the lymph system to work better for more long-term health benefits. The X'tract approach recognizes that our body's systems work together in congruence with each other ensuring the optimal performance of a healthy body. This is why X'tract becomes beneficial for overall body wellness.

What benefits I might experience from having an X'tract Session/s?
Strengthened Immune System
One of the main benefits of the lymph system is the removal of harmful waste and toxins from the body. For this to occur, lymph has to be flowing smoothly. If you’ve been getting sick more often lately, it could be your lymph nodes to blame. Try an X'tract to improve your immunity and feel better.
More Energy
Many people report feeling more energy after a X'tract session. It can last for a few hours to a few days. Many people choose to incorporate X'tract into their weekly or monthly for this great boost of energy.
Better Sleep
X'tract can reduce pain and stress and promote healing, which makes them perfect for anyone who has been having trouble sleeping.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition with musculoskeletal pain and fatigue symptoms. It also causes sleep, memory, and mood issues. The Fatigue and the Fibromyalgia Solution by Jacob Tietelbaum MD offers some incredible insight on the subject.
Relaxation
Because it is such a gentle treatment, it is one of the most relaxing. And the relaxation is enhanced as the cleansing and rejuvenating effects relieve stress.
Sinus Congestion
X'tract is highly de-congestive. When lymph is not flowing properly, you may experience sinus or allergy issues. Draining the lymph nodes that work with the sinuses can help get everything flowing smoothly again and offer some well-deserved relief.
Lymphedema Prevention
When the normal flow of lymph is seriously interrupted (by medical treatment, infection, cancer treatments, surgeries, or health or medical conditions), you could end up with lymph-edema, which causes major swelling in one or more limbs. Compression therapy is typically used to prevent lymph-edema, but X'tract can also greatly help reduce swelling and prevent lymph-edema from getting worse. Some studies also suggest it can also be preventative.
Skin Stress
As the skin is the largest organ, functional medicine sees skin disorders as the surfacing of an internal issue. Regardless of the condition or where it occurs, the root cause is the concern. X'tract is a great way to remedy skin disorders, everything from acne to rashes and lesions.
Digestive Stress
According to the Canadian Digestive Health Foundation, each year, over 20 million Canadians suffer from some type of digestive disorder. There are almost 20 different types of digestive conditions which usually start with constipation, bloating, and swelling and can lead to more serious disorders like Crohn’s and cancer.
Pregnancy and after
There is often fluid retention in pregnant women and lymphatic drainage can improve comfort especially in legs and feet. Breast feeding will be enhanced by this treatment, especially when there are problems with blocked ducts and sore tight breasts.
Arthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis is a disorder that occurs from the wear and tear of the joints of the body. A predisposition or genetics can accelerate the condition. General symptoms include joint pain and stiffness but do not exclude inflammation, redness, and warmness. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease. This disease causes white blood cells to attack the joint’s healthy cells and will continue to deteriorate the joints. With regular X'tract, you will flush old white blood cells replacing them with healthy white blood cells which will slow the progression of the disease.
Migraines / Headaches
Migraines are recurrent headaches range from moderate to severe. Typically, migraines can last from a few hours to days. The headache throbs or pulsates and can cause light, sound or smell sensitivity, nausea, and vomiting. The causes remain unknown but it seems that family history and environmental factors could play a part.Most headaches including sinusitis have a component of congestion that responds well to X'tract. Once tissue is de-congested, blocked fluid and blood flow improve, reducing pain and discomfort.
Reduction of Swelling in the Legs
Often, poor leg circulation is automatically chalked up to poor vein health. However, it could be your the lymph nodes in your legs – and not just your veins – that are the culprit. If you’ve started to notice swelling, pain, or discomfort in your legs, see your X'tract therapist for a session can help clear up the congestion in your lymph in your legs.
Healing After Surgery
X'tract had been known to stimulate healing and regenerate tissue at a scar site after surgery. In addition, it can detoxify the body and reduce swelling – both issues which are usually experienced after surgery. Once you’ve been cleared by your doctor, book a session with our qualified, X'tract Practitioner.

What can I expect immediately after a session?
It is important to remember that you need to drink water. Lots of water! Water is the medium in which your body can transport the "toxins" that caused inflammation out of the body. X'tract is about detoxification of the lymph system. Detoxification brings a freedom from toxins that have been stored in your body that don’t belong there. Sometimes when the body detoxifies, you may experience an increase in elimination, a rash, headache or other discomforts in the body. You may also feel more emotional and be more retrospective. You may also feel lighter, more free, joy, peace, happiness, like a burden has lifted, you may be able to understand things that were blocked from you previously. All of these reactions are good because it means the body is cleansing itself from the things that you don’t need there. When your body has less of these stressful toxins, you are then free to accept more healing and your body is able to work better to keep you healthy and feeling your best!
