Answers to common questions about benefits, preparation, and what to expect during treatment.
Lymphatic massage is a gentle manual technique designed to encourage lymph fluid movement through superficial lymph vessels. Therapists use light, rhythmic strokes to reduce swelling, aid detoxification, and support immune function. Sessions are non-invasive and tailored to individual needs for safety and effectiveness.
People with post-operative swelling, lymphedema, chronic fluid retention, or sluggish circulation often benefit. It’s also useful for reducing puffiness, supporting immune health, and enhancing recovery after injury. A therapist will assess your medical history to determine suitability and customize treatment.
Arrive hydrated and wear loose, comfortable clothing. Avoid heavy meals and alcohol beforehand. Bring medical information about surgeries or conditions. Your therapist will review health history, explain the procedure, and may recommend multiple sessions or complementary home care to maximize results.
Often beneficial for post-surgical recovery, but timing is crucial. Wait for your surgeon’s clearance—typically once drains are removed and wounds healed. Our therapists coordinate with medical advice to provide gentle, targeted treatment that reduces swelling and promotes healing without compromising recovery.
Some clients notice immediate reductions in puffiness and improved comfort after one session, while others require a series for lasting change. Frequency depends on condition severity; therapists typically recommend weekly sessions initially, then tapering as lymph flow and symptoms improve.
Lymphatic massage is generally safe, but contraindications include active infections, untreated blood clots, congestive heart failure, or certain cancers. Mild effects can include temporary fatigue or lightheadedness. Therapists conduct thorough consultations to identify risks and modify or postpone treatment when necessary.
