Medical Massage Therapy

The lymphatic system is a movement-dependent system, meaning it does not work independently like the circulation of the heart does. I work with you to guarantee the muscular system are working efficiently, and the neural pathways is speaking to the body in a harmonious way so that muscle movement takes place and is maintained.

Multi-Light Therapy

This light-targeted therapy is used for muscle health, repairing muscles, and skin restoration. The red, blue, and infrared lights reach into deeper tissue layers, with precision, into the targeted areas that have undergone liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Utilizing carefully calibrated low-level therapeutic electrical stimulation, sticky tissues, scar tissue formation, and fibrous tissue buildup are broken up, and the nervous system is stimulated to restore balance to the state of healing.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Therapy is a traditional Japanese healing technique that clears and harmonizes the energetic pathways in the body. As a result, the body's inherent healing capacity strengthen, helping to foster optimal holistic wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic drainage massage is a mild, therapeutic technique designed to help your body's lymphatic network work better. This type of massage can reduce swelling, improve circulation, and bolster your immune health. It uses light, wave-like movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body.

After liposuction, lymphatic drainage massage helps minimize swelling after surgery, hastens recovery, enhances circulation, and helps prevent complications like scar tissue formation or irregular healing. It supports the body's self-healing abilities and helps achieve ideal surgical results.

No, lymphatic therapy is very soft and shouldn't be uncomfortable. The therapist uses soft pressure to stimulate lymph flow. Unlike intense massage, it involves soft, rhythmic movements that are soothing and pleasant.

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For post-liposuction recovery, we typically recommend four thorough sessions within 30 days. For overall health or ongoing lymphatic support, sessions may be on a weekly basis or as advised by your healthcare provider.

During a session, you can expect a evaluation about your health and objectives, soft rhythmic movements to promote lymph flow, a very calming experience, and follow-up instructions including staying hydrated and relaxation. Sessions typically last about 45-60 minutes.

Lymphatic drainage massage is helpful for surgical recovery patients (especially after body contouring), people with chronic swelling or persistent inflammation, active individuals seeking performance enhancement, and anyone feeling drained or anxious who wants to support their immune system and general health.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a soft, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymphatic system work better. This type of massage can minimize swelling, enhance circulation, and bolster your body's defenses. Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, lymphatic drainage massage might be the answer you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Therapy?

Lymphatic massage is a specialized kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymphatic network is a collection of tissues and components that help your body eliminate toxins, waste, and other unwanted materials. It also helps your immune system fight diseases. When this system isn't working properly, you might experience inflammation, pain, or feel fatigued all the time.

This massage uses gentle, wave-like movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body. Unlike aggressive bodywork, it's very gentle and doesn't involve deep pressure. It's often used to help people recover from surgery, reduce swelling, or boost their general well-being.

How Does Lymphatic Drainage Work?

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

Lymphatic Massage helps by:

  1. Stimulating Lymph Flow: The gentle movements stimulate lymphatic fluid to move through your body.

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

  3. Boosting Immunity: It helps your body clear toxins, which can boost your body's defenses.

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

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

  3. Calmness: 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.
