Medical Massage Therapy

The lymphatic system is a system that requires movement, meaning it does not operate independently like the circulation of the heart does. I work with you to ensure the muscle groups are working at their best, and the brain is speaking to the body in a synchronized way so that movement happens and is sustained.

Multi-Light Therapy

This light-targeted therapy is used for muscular wellness, muscle repair, and restoring skin. The red, blue, and near-infrared lights penetrate deep into the tissue, with targeted focus, into the select regions having had liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

By using precise low-level microcurrents, adhesions, forming scar tissue, and fibrous tissue buildup are broken up, and the neural function is stimulated to return to equilibrium to the recovery mode.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Therapy is a traditional Japanese healing technique that purifies and balances the energy flow in the body. As a result, the body's innate healing abilities enhance, helping to establish optimum holistic wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic therapy is a soft, healing technique designed to help your body's lymph system work more efficiently. This type of massage can reduce swelling, boost circulation, and strengthen your immune health. It uses gentle, rhythmic movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body.

After cosmetic surgery, lymphatic drainage massage helps minimize post-surgical swelling, accelerates recovery, enhances circulation, and helps prevent complications like tissue hardening or uneven recovery. It promotes the body's natural healing processes and helps achieve ideal surgical results.

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

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For recovery after liposuction, we typically recommend 4 thorough sessions within a month's time. For overall health or lymphedema management, sessions may be weekly or as advised by your medical professional.

During a session, you can expect a assessment about your health and desired outcomes, soft rhythmic movements to promote lymph flow, a very relaxing experience, and post-session instructions including staying hydrated and taking it easy. Sessions typically last about 45-60 minutes.

Lymphatic therapy is advantageous for surgical recovery patients (especially after body contouring), people with lymphedema or chronic swelling, athletes seeking performance enhancement, and anyone feeling tired or overwhelmed who wants to support their immune system and general health.

Lymphatic massage is a soft, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymphatic system work optimally. This type of massage can minimize swelling, improve circulation, and support your body's defenses. Whether you're healing after surgery, dealing with swelling, or just want to feel better, lymphatic drainage massage might be the answer you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Therapy?

Lymphatic therapy is a specialized kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymphatic network is a collection of organs and organs that help your body eliminate waste, unwanted materials, and other harmful substances. It also helps your immune system fight infections. When this system isn't working properly, you might experience fluid retention, soreness, or feel fatigued all the time.

This massage uses soft, rhythmic movements to encourage the flow of lymphatic fluid in your body. Unlike aggressive bodywork, it's very soft and doesn't involve strong pressure. It's often used to help people heal after surgery, reduce swelling, or boost their overall health.

How Does Lymphatic Massage Work?

The lymph system doesn't have a natural pump like the heart to move lymphatic fluid around. Instead, it relies on muscle movement and breath work to keep things moving. Sometimes, though, the system can get blocked or lose efficiency. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very mobile.

Lymphatic Therapy helps by:

  1. Promoting Lymph Flow: The light movements promote lymph fluid to move through your body.

  2. Reducing Swelling: By enhancing circulation, it can reduce swelling in areas like your limbs, legs, or upper body.

  3. Boosting Immunity: It helps your body remove waste, which can boost your immune system.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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