Medical Massage Therapy

The lymph system is a movement-dependent system, meaning it does not work on its own like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to make sure the muscular system are working at their best, and the brain is speaking to the body in a harmonious way so that movement takes place and is preserved.

Multi-Light Therapy

This targeted light therapy is used for healthy muscle, repairing muscles, and restoring skin. The therapeutic light spectrum penetrate deep into the tissue, with accuracy, into the select regions that have undergone liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Through the use of precise gentle low-level electrical currents, adhesions, scar tissue formation, and fibrous tissue buildup are dissolved, and the nervous system is stimulated to rebalance to the healing state.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Therapy is a traditional Japanese healing technique that clears and aligns the energetic pathways in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish ideal holistic wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic massage is a soft, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymphatic network work better. This type of massage can minimize swelling, enhance circulation, and strengthen your immune health. It uses gentle, rhythmic movements to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid in your body.

After liposuction, lymphatic drainage massage helps minimize swelling after surgery, speeds up recovery, enhances circulation, and helps reduce complications like fibrosis or uneven recovery. It encourages the body's self-healing abilities and helps reach best possible surgical results.

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

The frequency depends on your specific needs. For post-liposuction recovery, we typically recommend four comprehensive sessions within one month. For general wellness or chronic swelling treatment, sessions may be weekly or as suggested by your doctor.

During a session, you can expect a evaluation about your medical history and objectives, soft wave-like movements to promote lymph flow, a very relaxing experience, and aftercare instructions including fluid intake and relaxation. Sessions typically last about an hour.

Lymphatic drainage massage is helpful for surgical recovery patients (especially after cosmetic surgery), people with chronic swelling or ongoing edema, sports enthusiasts seeking performance enhancement, and anyone feeling tired or anxious who wants to support their immune system and overall wellness.

Lymphatic massage is a soft, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymphatic system work more efficiently. This type of massage can reduce swelling, improve circulation, and strengthen your immune health. Whether you're healing after surgery, addressing swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, lymphatic drainage massage might be the treatment you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Massage?

Lymphatic massage is a special kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymph system is a collection of tissues and organs that help your body eliminate harmful substances, waste, and other harmful substances. It also helps your immune health fight diseases. When this system isn't working correctly, you might experience fluid retention, pain, or feel drained all the time.

This massage uses light, flowing movements to promote the flow of lymph in your body. Unlike intense massage, it's very mild and doesn't involve forceful manipulation. It's often used to help people recover from surgery, reduce swelling, or improve their total wellness.

How Does Lymphatic Therapy Work?

The lymphatic system doesn't have a built-in 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 blocked or slow down. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very mobile.

Lymphatic Massage helps by:

  1. Stimulating Lymph Flow: The gentle movements promote lymph fluid to move through your body.

  2. Reducing Swelling: By improving circulation, it can reduce swelling in areas like your arms, lower extremities, or neck.

  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 calm and comfortable.

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

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

  • Improves Skin Health: By removing toxins, it can make your skin look healthier.

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

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

Who Can Benefit from Lymphatic Massage?

This massage is helpful for many people, including:

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

  • People with Chronic Swelling: A condition where lymph builds up and causes swelling.

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

  • Anyone Feeling Drained or Anxious: 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. Consultation: The therapist will ask about your wellness background and goals for the massage.

  2. Light Movements: The therapist will use light, rhythmic strokes to encourage lymph flow.

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

  4. Post-Massage Care: You might be advised to drink water and rest after the massage.

Lymphatic therapy is a safe way to enhance your body's natural healing processes. Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing swelling, or just want to feel better, this soothing massage can make a big difference. If you're interested in trying it, reach out to a certified therapist in your area. Remember to drink plenty of water and take it easy after your session to get the most benefits.
