Lymphatic massage in San Antonio
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle technique that supports the natural movement of lymphatic fluid and help reduce swelling. At Remedial Massage & Reflexology Clinic in San Antonio, we provide lymphatic drainage and lymphatic massage according to each client’s needs.
Lymphatic Massage is a technique developed in Germany for the treatment of lymphedema (an accumulation of fluid).
Why Should I Have a Manual Lymphatic Drainage Treatment?
1.- Helps You Get Back to Normal Life Faster after Surgery.- Your healing process is accelerated with MLD when you reduce swelling, pain, bruising and activate the immune system by cleansing the tissues, this promotes a speedy and effective recovery process.
2.- Reduce Swelling.- When the lymphatic vessels are cut, as in surgery or injury, the lymphatic fluid builds up causing swelling in your tissue. MLD will gently reroute fluid, thus reducing swelling and inflammation.
3.- Reduces Bruising & Pain.- MLD moves damaged cells out, improve skin regeneration and tissue health. MLD has a profound analgesic, or pain-relieving effect.
4.- MLD Reduces Scarring.- MLD promotes soft, pliable tissue. Scarring and buildup of nodules are reduced. Hard tissue is softened.
5.- Faster Recovery from Sports Injuries.- When pain and swelling are reduced, you can get back to doing the fun sport activities that you love with maximum mobility.
6.- Reduces the Risk of Infection.- Manual Lymphatic Drainage helps move excess fluid and supports healthy lymphatic circulation. This helps the lymphatic system perform its important role in the body’s immune defenses.
What Conditions is Lymphatic Massage Used For?
Up to 25 percent of breast cancer patients whose surgery includes removal of lymph nodes in the area of the armpit eventually develop lymphedema. The condition can also occur in the leg or other parts of the body if lymph nodes are removed in the course of other types of surgery, such as in melanoma, colon, prostate or bladder cancer, after radiation treatment, infection or trauma.
Symptoms of lymphedema include swelling and pain can occur immediately after radiation therapy, surgery, infection , and trauma, or weeks, months, and even years later.
If you are recovering from a tummy tuck, liposuction, or face and neck surgery, lymphatic drainage can be a gentle and supportive part of your post-surgery care.
It can help reduce swelling, promote comfort, and support your body throughout the recovery process.
What Should You Expect During a Lymphatic Massage Session?
A Lymphatic massage session at Remedial Massage & Reflexology Clinic in San Antonio is tailored to each client’s needs. Gentle techniques are used to support lymphatic flow, reduce swelling and promote comfort and recovery.
Lymphatic drainage is very gentle, it is not painful and doesn’t have a stimulating effect. Each session lasts 45 to 60 minutes, and the therapy is usually performed once a day four or five times a week for two to four weeks. One study showed that the greatest reduction in swelling from lymphedema occurs in the first week of treatment and stabilizes during the second week.
