Get answers to common questions about Lymphatic Drainage - 60 Mins.

A licensed therapist will begin with a brief consultation, then apply gentle, rhythmic strokes focused on lymph pathways for sixty minutes, addressing specific areas of concern and offering aftercare guidance.

Often beneficial, but you must have physician clearance first. We avoid treatment with active infection, open wounds, or until your surgeon approves to prevent complications and ensure safe recovery.

Frequency depends on goals: weekly sessions can help acute swelling, while biweekly or monthly visits support maintenance. Your therapist will recommend a plan tailored to your needs and response.

Because pressure is light and rhythmic, bruising is uncommon. You may feel mild tenderness or increased urination as fluids shift; hydrate and rest to support the process.

Contraindications include uncontrolled heart conditions, active infection, deep vein thrombosis, untreated cancer, fever, or recent major surgery without clearance. We screen clients and require medical approval when necessary.

Before: hydrate, wear loose clothing, and share medical history. After: drink plenty of water, rest, avoid strenuous activity or alcohol for 24 hours, and follow any personalized aftercare advice.
