Medical Massage Therapy

The lymphatic system is a manual system, meaning it does not function independently like the beating of the heart does. I work with you to make sure the muscle groups are working optimally, and the neural pathways is speaking to the body in a harmonious way so that movement happens and is preserved.

Multi-Light Therapy

This targeted light therapy is used for muscular wellness, repairing muscles, and restoring skin. The red, blue, and infrared lights extend deep into the tissue, with precision, into the specific zones affected by liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Through the use of carefully calibrated low-level therapeutic electrical stimulation, tissue adhesions, forming scar tissue, and fibrous tissue buildup are broken up, and the neural function is encouraged to return to equilibrium to the state of healing.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Healing is a Japanese form of energy healing that clears and harmonizes the energy patterns in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms improve, helping to establish ideal mental, emotional, and physical health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic therapy is a soft, healing technique designed to help your body's lymph system work optimally. This type of massage can reduce swelling, boost circulation, and bolster your immune health. It uses soft, flowing movements to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid in your body.

After liposuction, lymphatic drainage massage helps decrease post-surgical swelling, accelerates recovery, improves circulation, and helps avoid complications like scar tissue formation or uneven recovery. It supports the body's self-healing abilities and helps reach optimal surgical results.

No, lymphatic drainage massage is very gentle and shouldn't be uncomfortable. The therapist uses light pressure to promote lymph flow. Unlike deep tissue massage, it involves gentle, flowing movements that are soothing and comfortable.

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For recovery after liposuction, we typically recommend 4 comprehensive thorough sessions within one month. For maintenance or lymphedema management, sessions may be weekly or as advised by your healthcare provider.

During a session, you can expect a consultation about your wellness goals and objectives, gentle wave-like movements to promote lymph flow, a very peaceful experience, and post-session instructions including fluid intake and taking it easy. Sessions typically last about 45-60 minutes.

Lymphatic treatment is advantageous for surgical recovery patients (especially after liposuction), people with lymphedema or ongoing edema, sports enthusiasts seeking recovery support, and anyone feeling drained or anxious who wants to strengthen their immune health and general health.

Lymphatic massage is a gentle, therapeutic technique designed to help your body's lymph system work more efficiently. This type of massage can minimize swelling, boost circulation, and bolster your immune health. Whether you're healing after surgery, addressing swelling, or just want to enhance your health, lymphatic massage might be the answer you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Therapy?

Lymphatic massage is a special kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic system. The lymph system is a system of structures and components that help your body eliminate toxins, unwanted materials, and other toxic elements. It also helps your immune system fight infections. When this system isn't working optimally, you might experience inflammation, soreness, or feel drained all the time.

This massage uses soft, flowing movements to encourage the flow of lymph in your body. Unlike aggressive bodywork, it's very mild and doesn't involve strong pressure. It's often used to help people recover from surgery, minimize swelling, or enhance their general well-being.

How Does Lymphatic Therapy Work?

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

Lymphatic Massage helps by:

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

  2. Minimizing Swelling: By improving circulation, it can reduce swelling in areas like your extremities, legs, or upper body.

  3. Supporting Immunity: It helps your body remove toxins, which can boost your immune system.

  4. Promoting Relaxation: The gentle touch can help you feel calm and relaxed.
