Medical Massage Therapy

Your lymphatic network is a manual system, meaning it does not function on its own like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to make sure the muscle groups are functioning optimally, and the brain is coordinating with the body in a synchronized way so that mobility takes place and is sustained.

Multi-Light Therapy

This light-targeted therapy is used for healthy muscle, muscle repair, and restoring skin. The red, blue, and near-infrared lights reach deep into the tissue, with precision, into the specific zones having had liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Utilizing precise mild microcurrents, tissue adhesions, developing scar tissue, and tough fibrous knots are dissolved, and the neural function is activated to return to equilibrium to the state of healing.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Therapy is a Japanese form of energy healing that clears and aligns the energy flow in the body. As a result, the body's inherent healing capacity improve, helping to establish optimal physical, emotional, and mental well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic massage is a mild, healing technique designed to help your body's lymphatic system work better. This type of massage can decrease swelling, boost circulation, and support your body's defenses. It uses gentle, flowing movements to stimulate the flow of lymph in your body.

After cosmetic surgery, lymphatic drainage massage helps decrease post-surgical swelling, accelerates recovery, enhances circulation, and helps avoid complications like fibrosis or healing complications. It promotes the body's natural healing processes and helps attain best possible surgical results.

No, lymphatic treatment is very mild and shouldn't hurt. The therapist uses gentle pressure to stimulate lymph flow. Unlike intense massage, it involves soft, rhythmic movements that are relaxing and comfortable.

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For post-liposuction recovery, we typically recommend 4 comprehensive thorough sessions within a month's time. For general wellness 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 goals, gentle rhythmic movements to promote lymph flow, a very relaxing experience, and aftercare instructions including fluid intake and resting. Sessions typically last about 45-60 minutes.

Lymphatic drainage massage is beneficial for post-operative individuals (especially after liposuction), people with chronic swelling or persistent inflammation, athletes seeking performance enhancement, and anyone feeling drained or stressed who wants to strengthen their body's defenses and general health.

Lymphatic therapy is a gentle, healing technique designed to help your body's lymphatic network work more efficiently. This type of massage can decrease swelling, enhance circulation, and support your immune system. Whether you're in post-surgical recovery, dealing with swelling, or just want to feel better, lymphatic drainage massage might be the solution you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Therapy?

Lymphatic drainage massage is a unique kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymph system is a system of organs and tissues that help your body remove harmful substances, toxins, and other unwanted materials. It also helps your immune system fight diseases. When this system isn't working correctly, you might experience inflammation, discomfort, or feel fatigued all the time.

This massage uses light, rhythmic movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body. Unlike deep tissue massage, it's very soft and doesn't involve deep pressure. It's often used to help people heal after surgery, minimize swelling, or boost their total wellness.

How Does Lymphatic Therapy Work?

The lymph system doesn't have a 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 congested or lose efficiency. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very active.

Lymphatic Drainage helps by:

  1. Encouraging Lymph Flow: The soft movements promote lymph to move through your body.

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

  3. Supporting Immunity: It helps your body eliminate waste, which can strengthen your immune system.

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

Benefits of Lymphatic Massage

Here are some of the main benefits of this type of massage:

  • Reduces Swelling: It's great for people with fluid retention or swelling after surgery.

  • Speeds Up Recovery: It can help you recover faster after surgery or injury.

  • Boosts Skin Health: By eliminating toxins, it can make your skin look more radiant.

  • Enhances Energy: Many people feel more revitalized after a session.

  • Supports Immune Health: It helps your body resist infections.

Who Can Benefit from Lymphatic Drainage Massage?

This massage is helpful for many people, including:

  • Post-Operative Patients: It's often used after body contouring or other procedures to minimize swelling.

  • People with Lymphedema: A condition where lymphatic fluid builds up and causes swelling.

  • Athletes: It can help with muscle recovery and minimize soreness.

  • Anyone Feeling Fatigued or Overwhelmed: It's a great way to relax and feel better.

What to Expect During a Lymphatic Therapy

If you've never had this type of massage before, here's what you can expect:

  1. Evaluation: The therapist will ask about your wellness background and desired outcomes for the massage.

  2. Gentle Movements: The therapist will use gentle, rhythmic strokes to stimulate lymph flow.

  3. Tranquility: You'll likely feel very relaxed during and after the session.

  4. Follow-up Instructions: You might be advised to drink water and rest after the massage.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a safe way to enhance your body's natural healing processes. Whether you're in post-surgical recovery, managing swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, this soothing massage can make a big difference. If you're interested in trying it, call a certified therapist in your area. Remember to drink plenty of water and rest after your session to get the most benefits.
