Lymphatic Massage

What is Lymphatic Massage?

Lymphatic massage is a gentle form of massage used to relieve painful swelling in your arms and legs caused by lymphedema. Our expertly trained massage therapist uses lymphatic massage techniques to move lymph from your tissues to your lymph nodes, which eases the swelling in your tissues. Lymphatic massages are often used to relieve lymphedema following breast cancer surgery. Other conditions that benefit from lymphatic drainage massages are:

• Rheumatoid arthritis - This is ongoing arthritis in your joints causing joint pain, swelling, and stiffness.

• Fibromyalgia - This condition causes chronic muscle and joint pain.
• Chronic venous insufficiency - This happens when your leg veins aren't working effectively, making it hard for your blood to return to your heart from your legs.
• Lipedema - This happens when excess fat accumulates in your lower body, blocking your lymphatic pathway and causing lymphedema.
