Juul is a kind and intuitive instructor who has a clear passion for manual lymphatic drainage, encouraging others to learn such a valuable skill. As a bonus, I lost almost 10 pounds from all of the bodywork I participated in! Who knew I was carrying excess fluid in my lower extremities? I feel great, have a glow to my skin, and am inspired to continue reducing the toxins in my body as well as choosing healthier options to increase my wellness! I can’t wait to share this work with clients.
