that was extremely useful and thorough. I'm wondering could she maybe give just a demonstration of the actual brushing? Like do it all once from start to finish the way she does it on herself? That would be very helpful.
Yes this would be great to have!
I am working on a website now and will have better demostration. This was an impromptu interview, so it wasn't planned to be a full demonstration. Hopefully the information has you thinking differently about your immune system :)
BrandiOwensRNCLT Hi Brandi. I have a question about the type of brush. Are the bristles supposed to be stiff or soft?
We need this in a 2 minute demo video!!!
Agree
i love hearing her perspective from a clinical standpoint
Her explanation of how and where the lymph system flows is consistent with Dr. Morse's explanation. He is a naturpathic doctor who has been practicing very successfully for around 40 years. He's on YT as well. Thanks for the info
Love people complaining that she didn't demonstrate. What should she do? Strip and show everyone on camera? It's not rocket science, the important thing is knowing where the water sheds are and in which direction to brush to drain properly. Pretty sure y'all are smart enough to figure the rest out. I think she's one of the better demonstrators, unlike most that just say "just brush towards your heart!"
+Karichi Du Soleil Thank you so very much, I'm happy you found the video of benefit to you.
Brandi
By far the BEST info I've ever found on dry brushing, the lymphatic system and water sheds. Thank you to Brandi for her knowledge and green tea smoothie for this video!
I had a thermogram today and found out that i have congested lymph nodes in my left arm pit.I showed up as this big mass, scary. I had NO idea!! but I am grateful for this knowledge so that I can work on getting this unclogged, improve my health and possibly be preventing a potentially deadly illness i.e. breast cancer. thanks for the demo. everyone consider a thermogram.
+elizabeth livefree barrett maybe colonics
I do want to try colonics as well... Just an update. I did dry brushing , a fresh green juice cleanse for 2 weeks, increased my water intake and did a little rebounding ( jumping on a mini trampoline) I did another thermogram about 5 months later.....and my lymph nodes are freely flowing again....carrying cancerous toxins safely out of my body :)
+elizabeth livefree barrett great
+elizabeth “livefree” barrett - Question on that. Does it matter who does it? I see where Chiropracters can do this also? My insurance says they cover it, but when I called a facility that does them, they said ins co always say they will but never do. Ins Co wants a Wellness code submitted but facility will not use them!!
the pictures need to be done by someone who is certitfied and its even more important that the dr who reads the images has gone thru the certification.....my insurance would not pay at all..but for me even at almost 50yrs old my breasts are still very dense..mammograms just look like a white snow storm..they will not see anything until it is huge..so it is worth the expense to me
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.
Thank you so much Robin for these fantastic interviews, it's like a mini class on a particular topic. Love what you do!
That was an astounding amount of info, thank you. I've been doing this SO wrong for years!
I have never thought of this like you put it for inportances of health and just what I am needing so thanks!
@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.
This is a Godsend after being previously on high dose steroids for 11+ years. Thank you!
one of the best videos on body brushing.
Finally, a proper correct way. Thank you so much for this.
Thank you for this explanation. I was a little confused at first as it's not a 'Step. 1: Do this, Step 2: Do this...' sort of explanation, but I paid more attention the second time and understand how to do it now. Very much appreciated!
the best info on dry skin brushing ever - thank you for posting
Thank you very much for this demonstration. I have seen several videos on skin brushing and none of them seem to have as much knowledge behind them as this one. It seems complicated at first, but my gut feeling is that it must be right and with practice will get easier.
By far, this is the best info on Skin Brushing on your channel, a demo would enhance. This info is superior to most given. I always share this one.
Thank you so much. I'm swollen in the area's that are mentioned. Just started Dry Brushing and this is obviously the better way.
More on dry brushing - some deeper info - and cancer patients take note - this helps everyone inside and out. Thanks Brandi and Greensmoothie Girl...Kiki
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.
Thank you so much for all the information you shared about how our bodies are organized, etc and where the important areas are for elimination of toxins via the lymph system. Very good info! Thanks!!
Best Demo. Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this. The skin brushing I was doing (strokes toward the heart) seemed to be doing more harm than good, so I had switched to warm then cold water a few times in the shower to increase circulation. I am happy to skin brush in the way you have taught! I hope this will help with lower body edema. I had painful fluid build-up with swollen glands on the back of my head over an injury site. I took ACV a few times on those days and it drained quickly, but not on the legs.
Thank you so much.
Thank you!!
Thank you very much
I printed out a an image from google and I made notes. Thanks for the information.
I'm very excited about this! I really appreciated the explanation about the health benefits and what exactly is going on with this.
this video is so amazing. i am studying now holistic health nutrtion and healing and this was so very educational and in relation to what
Thank you! Great information.
Very very helpful and insightful. Thank you!
Thank you..I'm on dialysis and am going to try this to remove toxins😊
This is a great video, thank you for sharing such important information.
I thought this was great information! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Dry brushing has truly changed m y skin.
Incredible info thank you so much!!
thank you
Great information!! Thank you 😊
This was the best video on dry skin brushing that I have seen. Very informative. I learned quite a bit. Thank you...
Great stuff.
glad to see this it's completely different from what we were taught in massage school. I'm going to start tomorrow morning.
+Shelley Lewis Thank you :)
Thank you! I suffer from an intramural fibroid tumor which caused me to have a missed miscarriage last December 2020. I’ve always been into holistic homeopathic healing and this prompted me to do so with a vengeance! From the start, automatically I was drawn to lymphatic drainage. This video confirmed why even before I it!
This is the best explanation of dry brushing I've seen, even if a bit hard to put into practice right away. I'm glad I ran into it by accident. Two years ago when I started dry brushing there weren't too many videos out there and I was left wanting for more definitive information.
I have been doing this for years, and had found lots of videos, but most of them were 'all over the place'!!
Wow, that was a long time ago, my comment, and since then I've fallen out of the habit of dry brushing. Time to review the video and start this healthful habit again! Thanks for the reminder! :-)
First time seeing this. I want to thank T aniesha for sending me this info
im scared it will cause excess wrinkles but she helps me understand different thanks guys
This was very helpful, thank you!! :)
good technical info, thnks !
merci!
That's the best video. Makes so much sens! Thank you for sharing x
Great video. I do wish that there was a diagram cheat sheet as well.
Excellent video! Thank you. So many confusing ones out there. This info was perfect.
This video rocks!
Thank you! Going to ask for a brush for christmas :D
going to stick this one out
I agree with ^^^ please do so...
@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 :)
Great video. I only recently started using a brush but wasn't using it correctly.
emmactress1894 No, she was saying that your skin should not be wet when brushing. You should brush when your skin is dry, right before the shower.
I have been brushing for 3 weeks, and my arm cellulite is completely gone, my skin is softer and a large non malignant "thing" in my breast which had not gone away in months is almost gone.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Megalo Majik You're welcome!
I think she demonstrated just fine. It would be great to have a chart to print out though.
+Susan Long Thank you!

Nice...
Wow, that was very informative. I will be brushing from now on. I too have symptoms of lupus but not enough for the rheumatologist to diagnose me, but I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Lots of inflammation in my body.
honeyb162 turmeric, colloidal silver, organic apple cider vinegar with the mother. fibromyalgia = word for a bunch of things they cant pinpoint. colloidal silver 1oz a day. 30ppm. best absorbtion is under the tounge, so dont swallow quickly. also manuka honey is very good too. but colloidal silver will work the best even by itself. also go buy some cold pressed castor oil. put it on a warm cloth heat pack and put it right over your liver for like an hour, or compress. wrap in siran wrap with the cloth over night. detoxes your liver. - krill fish oil is good too but expensive. purityproducts.com is on the radio in the am on 6:30am, you can get a 40 dollar bottle of pills for like 4.95 once, then cancel sub.. but purity products is awesome. i spent around 1200 on vitamins and supplments for a 6 months supply it worked awesome, but way too expensive..(now i spend like 20 a month on basic stuff i listed) and it did more for me than any doctors. its taken me about 8 years to get better. so all this im sharing with you. works. just takes time and a good regime.
i love this video! it was helpful and informative. thank you :)
It's a great explanation but yes I would love to see an actual demonstration that would be wonderful, thank you.
The actual demo begins @ 4:23 if any one would like to skip the also "important info". It is helpful to listen to the entire video just for the knowledge and benefits behind dry brushing.
Can you post a diagram of this routien please thank you, very informative.
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 Thank you so much!
Brandi...you look awesome...what a poster girl for raw foods!! :) Thanks for the lesson, too.
Awesome! I wasn't aware of the watersheds... so informative, I've been misguided in the past, no wonder I was getting collections under my arms. Thank you Brandi!
+Kellee Cogger You are so very welcome!
BrandiOwensRNCLT have you made a dry brush demo video since this short one? I would love to have a full session video to follow along to
Excellent video! Makes so much more sense than any of the others I watched. My question is - brushing twice a day, every day, how long roughly will it take to see results in the elasticity of skin that has thinned through age or prescription drug use? Thanks. :)
Great video very informative. Thanks for sharing. Take care. :)
How soon should I see results from body brushing? Thank you for any information.
Congrats Brandi! You are an awesome EcoSuperhero. Keep up the juicing.
Thank you :)
Hi Brandi, this is by far the most thorough description of dry brushing technique, thank you. Do you have any written instructions or diagrams we could follow please, as your descriptions seem to differ to those on the greensmoothiegirl website?
Thank you for taking the time to create this video. I've been brushing my husband and looking for lymphatic brushing as I recently took a yoga 4 cancer training workshop where lymph was discussed as well as encouraging lymphatic drainage in movement; now I think I'll even start brushing myself. oy, one more thing to add on my list.... but hoping it will help my stress-induced eczema.
That's fantastic, thank you for sharing. Best of luck to you.
anneweprin colloidal silver helps with the lymph nodes almost immediately. 1-3 days
Does she have video on dry brushing the face?
Hello! I have watched the video a couple times and I would love a little more direction for dry brushing the upper chest and collarbone area correctly. Thank you
@Inhisgarden Loofa is fine as long as it's not too rough to use it dry
EXCELLENT!
Do they sell automatic brushes in the US or do I have to do it myself? (Joking! ;-)
@MikeTBK Thank you :)
@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
The BEST video on dry skin brushing !!!
Thank you for the inf, I was doing it wrong😦
+venusiandesigns You're welcome!!
@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.
Is this method still the correct way to brush as of today, 2017?
please make a handout with patterns of brushing
greensmoothiegirl.com/skinbrushdetox/
Don't know if this was mentioned, but jumping on a trampoline is very beneficial also.
eyeYQ2 is that why all morons have trampolines? i used to hang out with a bunch of mormon girls. they all had trampolines and their parents all had like 5 kids.
Yes, all morons have trampolines. ; )
Do the Mormons? : / LOL
Yes good info I just wished she would have actually mimicked the actual process so I am sure I am doing it right
This video was a good start to peak interest in how to brush but left me a little frustrated and wanting more detail/demonstration. Also, this method is contrary of what I have been instructed by a naturopath ie; brush everywhere heading for the heart? Did I hear you mention NOT to apply creams/oils after brushing? I viewed the video a couple of times and came away with the same thought.
@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.
Shall we brush left and right side of the body just in the same way? Starting from right collarbone, doing the circle motion from the center to the outside, and then come to the left collarbone do the same? Does it matter from which side we start?
Should massage mirror parts of the body, OR the entire left side of the first and then the whole right?
This would be so much better if she actually demonstrated. All that talk is wonderful for brief learning but hands on with a demonstrator is so much more appropriate.

Move that lymph people
wow! thank you so so much, kind knowledgeable lady! :)
+Silvia Fahmy Thank you!
+BrandiOwensRNCLT I have been following your way and I feel completely new and healthy just after dry brushing, it's amazing!
But what about the upper back? Sometimes I create sweeps that go vertical to over the shoulder then down to the clavicle in the front.. I'm not sure if it's an acceptable way to do it!?
+Silvia Fahmy Thank you for the feedback!! For the upper back we need to be aware of where those watersheds are. So the way you are describing, we can use that stroke for the area of the back that is above the shoulder blades, but no lower than that. This is the reason that I suggest that you not use a long handled brush. So to clarify, you will brush the back of the neck straight down and then when reaching the top of the shoulders or trapezius muscle, you will bring over the front to the clavicle. You will continue to bring that upper shoulder area over the front to the clavicle. Everything from below the shoulder blade to the lower horizontal watershed will be brushed to the armpit, so when at the shoulder blade area it will be alomost a straight horizontal move from spine to armpit making sure you always follow through and carry each sweep up into the drain at the top of the armpit. I hope this helps. Check back in a week or two, I am getting a website together called dryskinbrushing101.com that will have new demonsrtation videos. It should be live very soon. Thank you again for your support.
You're a beautiful humble person! All the thanks to you! You are helping many people by doing so. I'll be waiting for the website.
I am glad my brush is short-handed (it was only because it's the only form available where I live - I'm now relieved to know it is the right one!)
I completely understood what you mean from your description and I will gladly start doing it that way right now while dry brushing.
Thanks.
So, did she say to not shower after dry skin brushing?
This is fascinatingly specific, but I find it hard to follow. I feel like I need a chart or diagram. Is there a specific order to follow with which areas to start and end with?
are effects about the same wet or dry? anyone know
