Medical Massage Therapy

The lymphatic system is a system that requires movement, meaning it does not function automatically like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to make sure the muscle groups are functioning efficiently, and the neural pathways is coordinating with the body in a harmonious way so that mobility takes place and is preserved.

Multi-Light Therapy

This light-targeted therapy is used for muscular wellness, repairing muscles, and skin restoration. The red, blue, and infrared lights extend into deeper tissue layers, with targeted focus, into the specific zones having had liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Through the use of precise low-level therapeutic electrical stimulation, tissue adhesions, developing scar tissue, and tough fibrous knots are dissolved, and the neural function is stimulated to return to equilibrium to the recovery mode.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Massage Therapy is a Japanese form of energy healing that clears and aligns the energy patterns in the body. As a result, the body's inherent healing capacity enhance, helping to promote optimal mental, emotional, and physical health.

After liposuction, lymphatic drainage massage helps reduce post-operative inflammation, hastens recovery, enhances circulation, and helps avoid complications like scar tissue formation or uneven recovery. It promotes the body's innate recovery mechanisms and helps reach ideal surgical results.

No, lymphatic therapy is very soft and shouldn't hurt. The therapist uses soft pressure to promote lymph flow. Unlike deep tissue massage, it involves gentle, wave-like movements that are relaxing and pleasant.

The frequency depends on your individual needs. For recovery after liposuction, we typically recommend 4 comprehensive sessions within one month. For overall health or lymphedema management, sessions may be once a week or as advised by your doctor.

During a session, you can expect a consultation about your health and desired outcomes, soft wave-like movements to encourage lymph flow, a very peaceful experience, and aftercare instructions including drinking water and relaxation. Sessions typically last about an hour.

Lymphatic drainage massage is helpful for post-surgery patients (especially after cosmetic surgery), people with lymphedema or ongoing edema, athletes seeking muscle recovery, and anyone feeling tired or stressed who wants to strengthen their body's defenses and well-being.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a soft, healing technique designed to help your body's lymph system work more efficiently. This type of massage can minimize swelling, enhance circulation, and support your body's defenses. Whether you're recovering from surgery, addressing swelling, or just want to enhance your health, lymphatic massage might be the treatment you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Drainage?

Lymphatic drainage massage is a unique kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a system of tissues and organs that help your body get rid of waste, waste, and other harmful substances. It also helps your immune health fight diseases. When this system isn't working optimally, you might experience swelling, discomfort, or feel drained all the time.

This massage uses gentle, flowing movements to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid in your body. Unlike aggressive bodywork, it's very mild and doesn't involve deep pressure. It's often used to help people heal after surgery, reduce swelling, or improve their overall health.

How Does Lymphatic Drainage Work?

The lymph system doesn't have a natural pump like the heart to move fluid around. Instead, it relies on body movement and breath work to keep things moving. Sometimes, though, the system can get congested or become sluggish. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very physically active.

Lymphatic Drainage helps by:

  1. Promoting Lymph Flow: The gentle movements stimulate lymph fluid to move through your body.

  2. Minimizing Swelling: By enhancing circulation, it can minimize swelling in areas like your extremities, lower body, or head and neck region.

  3. Supporting Immunity: It helps your body clear harmful substances, which can boost your body's defenses.

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