Medical Massage Therapy

The lymph system is a system that requires movement, meaning it does not function automatically like the pumping of the heart does. I work with you to guarantee the muscles are working optimally, and the nervous system is communicating with the body in a harmonious way so that movement occurs and is preserved.

Multi-Light Therapy

This targeted light therapy is used for healthy muscle, repairing muscles, and restoring skin. The red, blue, and near-infrared lights reach deep into the tissue, with accuracy, into the select regions having had liposuction.

Microcurrent Therapy

Utilizing carefully calibrated gentle low-level electrical currents, tissue adhesions, scar tissue formation, and fibrous tissue buildup are dissolved, and the nervous system's function is stimulated to return to equilibrium to the recovery mode.

Reiki and Energetic Rebalancing

Reiki Healing is a Japanese form of energy healing that clears and balances the energetic pathways in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimal physical, emotional, and mental well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lymphatic drainage massage 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 strengthen your immune health. It uses soft, wave-like movements to encourage the flow of lymph fluid in your body.

After body contouring, lymphatic drainage massage helps decrease post-surgical swelling, accelerates recovery, improves circulation, and helps prevent complications like tissue hardening or healing complications. It encourages the body's innate recovery mechanisms and helps reach best possible surgical results.

No, lymphatic drainage massage is very gentle and shouldn't hurt. The therapist uses gentle pressure to encourage lymph flow. Unlike deep tissue massage, it involves soft, rhythmic movements that are calming and comfortable.

The frequency depends on your personal needs. For post-liposuction recovery, we typically recommend four thorough sessions within 30 days. For overall health or lymphedema management, sessions may be once a week or as suggested by your doctor.

During a session, you can expect a assessment about your medical history and desired outcomes, soft wave-like movements to encourage lymph flow, a very relaxing experience, and aftercare instructions including drinking water and resting. Sessions typically last about 45-60 minutes.

Lymphatic drainage massage is helpful for post-surgery patients (especially after cosmetic surgery), people with chronic swelling or ongoing edema, sports enthusiasts seeking recovery support, and anyone feeling fatigued or overwhelmed who wants to strengthen their body's defenses and well-being.

Lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle, therapeutic technique designed to help your body's lymph system work more efficiently. This type of massage can minimize swelling, improve circulation, and support your body's defenses. Whether you're in post-surgical recovery, managing swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, lymphatic drainage massage might be the solution you're looking for.

What is Lymphatic Massage?

Lymphatic drainage massage is a special kind of massage that focuses on your lymphatic network. The lymphatic network is a collection of structures and tissues that help your body remove toxins, unwanted materials, and other toxic elements. It also helps your immune health fight diseases. When this system isn't working correctly, you might experience swelling, discomfort, or feel tired all the time.

This massage uses gentle, rhythmic movements to promote the flow of lymphatic fluid in your body. Unlike deep tissue massage, it's very mild and doesn't involve forceful manipulation. It's often used to help people recover from surgery, minimize swelling, or boost their total wellness.

How Does Lymphatic Therapy Work?

The lymph 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 become sluggish. This can happen after surgery, during illness, or if you're not very active.

Lymphatic Drainage helps by:

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

  2. Decreasing Swelling: By enhancing circulation, it can reduce swelling in areas like your extremities, legs, or neck.

  3. Boosting Immunity: It helps your body remove waste, which can strengthen your body's defenses.

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

Benefits of Lymphatic Therapy

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

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

  • Hastens Recovery: It can help you bounce back faster after surgery or injury.

  • Boosts Skin Health: By eliminating toxins, it can make your skin look healthier.

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

  • Bolsters Immune Health: It helps your body fight off infections.

Who Can Benefit from Lymphatic Therapy?

This massage is helpful for many people, including:

  • Surgical Recovery Patients: It's often used after body contouring or other procedures to decrease swelling.

  • People with Lymphedema: A condition where lymphatic fluid builds up and causes swelling.

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

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

What to Expect During a Lymphatic Massage

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

  1. Assessment: The therapist will ask about your wellness background and desired outcomes for the massage.

  2. Light Movements: The therapist will use gentle, flowing strokes to stimulate lymph flow.

  3. Relaxation: 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.

Lymphatic massage is a effective way to support your body's healing abilities. Whether you're recovering from surgery, dealing with swelling, or just want to improve your well-being, this gentle 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.
