Medical Massage Therapy

The lymph system is a system that requires movement, meaning it does not operate automatically like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to guarantee the muscle groups are functioning at their best, and the neural pathways is speaking to the body in a harmonious way so that mobility takes place and is maintained.

Multi-Light Therapy

This targeted light therapy is used for muscle health, muscle repair, and skin rejuvenation. The red, blue, and near-infrared lights penetrate deep into the tissue, with accuracy, into the targeted areas having had liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

By using accurate gentle low-level electrical currents, adhesions, developing scar tissue, and tough fibrous knots are dissolved, and the neural function is encouraged to restore balance to the healing state.

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 innate healing abilities improve, helping to establish optimal mental, emotional, and physical health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic massage is a gentle, healing technique designed to help your body's lymph system work optimally. This type of massage can decrease swelling, boost circulation, and bolster your immune system. It uses gentle, wave-like movements to encourage the flow of lymph in your body.

After liposuction, lymphatic drainage massage helps reduce post-operative inflammation, accelerates recovery, improves circulation, and helps reduce complications like scar tissue formation or healing complications. It promotes the body's natural healing processes and helps reach best possible surgical results.

No, lymphatic drainage massage is very gentle and shouldn't cause pain. The therapist uses light pressure to encourage lymph flow. Unlike aggressive massage, it involves light, rhythmic movements that are calming and comfortable.

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For post-liposuction recovery, we typically recommend 4 comprehensive complete sessions within 30 days. For general wellness or chronic swelling treatment, sessions may be once a week or as recommended by your medical professional.

During a session, you can expect a evaluation about your health and goals, soft wave-like movements to encourage lymph flow, a very peaceful experience, and follow-up instructions including staying hydrated and relaxation. Sessions typically last about 45 minutes.

Lymphatic treatment is beneficial for surgical recovery patients (especially after body contouring), people with chronic swelling or chronic swelling, active individuals seeking performance enhancement, and anyone feeling fatigued or stressed who wants to strengthen their body's defenses and general health.

Lymphatic therapy is a soft, restorative technique designed to help your body's lymph system work optimally. This type of massage can reduce swelling, improve circulation, and support your immune system. Whether you're healing after surgery, managing swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, lymphatic therapy might be the answer you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Drainage?

Lymphatic massage is a specialized kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymphatic network is a system of organs and organs that help your body get rid of toxins, waste, and other unwanted materials. It also helps your body's defenses fight infections. When this system isn't working optimally, you might experience swelling, soreness, or feel fatigued all the time.

This massage uses light, wave-like movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body. Unlike intense massage, it's very gentle and doesn't involve strong pressure. It's often used to help people heal after surgery, reduce swelling, or boost their total wellness.

How Does Lymphatic Drainage Work?

The lymphatic system doesn't have a built-in pump like the heart to move lymphatic fluid around. Instead, it relies on physical activity and breathing 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 active.

Lymphatic Therapy helps by:

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

  2. Decreasing Swelling: By boosting circulation, it can minimize swelling in areas like your arms, lower extremities, or upper body.

  3. Supporting Immunity: It helps your body clear waste, which can boost your immune health.

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

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

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

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

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

  1. Consultation: The therapist will ask about your medical history and desired outcomes for the massage.

  2. Light Movements: The therapist will use gentle, rhythmic strokes to encourage 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.
