Medical Massage Therapy

The lymph system is a manual system, meaning it does not operate on its own like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to make sure the muscles are working efficiently, and the neural pathways is communicating with the body in a synchronized way so that muscle movement takes place and is maintained.

Multi-Light Therapy

This light-targeted therapy is used for muscle health, muscle repair, and skin rejuvenation. The red, blue, and near-infrared lights extend into deeper tissue layers, with targeted focus, into the specific zones affected by liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

By using carefully calibrated mild therapeutic electrical stimulation, tissue adhesions, developing scar tissue, and hard fibrotic knots are released, and the nervous system is activated to rebalance to the recovery mode.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Therapy is a traditional Japanese healing technique that cleanses and harmonizes the energetic pathways in the body. As a result, the body's inherent healing capacity strengthen, helping to foster optimal mental, emotional, and physical health.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymphatic system work more efficiently. This type of massage can minimize swelling, improve circulation, and bolster your immune system. Whether you're in post-surgical recovery, addressing swelling, or just want to feel better, lymphatic massage might be the solution you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Massage?

Lymphatic therapy is a special kind of massage that focuses on your lymph system. The lymphatic network is a collection of organs and organs that help your body get rid of waste, toxins, and other toxic elements. It also helps your immune system fight illnesses. When this system isn't working correctly, you might experience swelling, pain, or feel drained all the time.

This massage uses light, wave-like movements to stimulate the flow of lymph in your body. Unlike deep tissue massage, it's very soft and doesn't involve strong pressure. It's often used to help people heal after surgery, decrease swelling, or enhance their overall health.

How Does Lymphatic Therapy Work?

The lymph system doesn't have a built-in pump like the heart to move lymphatic fluid around. Instead, it relies on muscle movement and breathing to keep things circulating. Sometimes, though, the system can get blocked or slow down. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very active.

Lymphatic Therapy helps by:

  1. Stimulating Lymph Flow: The soft movements encourage lymph fluid to move through your body.

  2. Decreasing Swelling: By boosting circulation, it can reduce swelling in areas like your extremities, lower extremities, or head and neck region.

  3. Supporting Immunity: It helps your body eliminate waste, which can boost your immune health.

  4. Facilitating Relaxation: The gentle touch can help you feel peaceful and comfortable.
