With a focus on personalised treatments, we ensure each client experiences effective relief from swelling, discomfort, and tension through our specialised lymphatic drainage massage in London.

A lymphatic drainage massage aims to reduce swelling caused by blockages in the lymphatic system due to medical treatments or illness, helping to lessen feelings of tiredness and sometimes bloating. It differs from other types of massage by specifically targeting these issues.

Lymphatic drainage massage promotes the movement of lymph fluids and encourages the drainage of lymph nodes throughout the body via gentle massage. Maintaining a healthy & efficient lymphatic system is crucial as it supports the body’s immune defences.

How Lymphatic Drainage Massage Works?

Lymphatic drainage massage has gained popularity for its potential health benefits. Unlike regular massages, it gently applies pressure to stimulate the lymphatic system, located just under the skin. Know about your treatment journey in detail below before getting the lymphatic drainage massage.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Lymphatic drainage is a very gentle massage method that focuses on the lymphatic system, an important part of the immune system.

The lymphatic system consists of organs, vessels & tissues that transport lymph, a clear fluid, from various parts of the body into the bloodstream.

Treat Lymphatic Stasis Induced Festoons or Help Under Eye Filler Induced Festoons

The massage is beneficial for individuals with lymphatic stasis, a condition where lymph fluid fails to return to the bloodstream properly & accumulates in other parts of the body, most commonly in the under-eye area called malar bags or festoons.

Various factors can cause lymphedema, including genetic disorders, injury, infection, under-eye fillers& surgery.

Consultation is Must

Consult your doctor before getting a lymphatic drainage massage and ensure you see a trained and certified professional. Your doctor will use specific techniques, such as stretching, compressing, gliding, and cupping motions, following a particular sequence.

They will begin with the main lymph drains, which include lymph nodes in your neck and face.

Clearing & Reabsorption

Light movements stimulate your lymphatic system without applying excessive pressure on your vessels, which allows lymph fluid to move smoothly through your nodes and tissues, preventing fluid buildup.

Lymphatic drainage involves two steps: 

Clearing – Where your tissues release lymph fluid.

Reabsorption – Where the lymph fluid moves into your lymph nodes.

Potential Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Gives A Radiant Glow

Massaging the skin often enhances its radiance by boosting blood circulation. Many clients who undergo lymphatic drainage also report a noticeable glow on their faces due to increased blood flow stimulation.

Helps Speed Up Recovery

After procedures like eyelid surgery, post-op swelling is a common part of the healing process. Lymphatic massage is highly effective for reducing this swelling by removing fluid build-ups under your skin.

Reduces Under Eye Festoons Due To Dermal Filler

A course of lymphatic drainage gentle, sweeping movements & increased lymph flow work wonders in reducing filler-induced malar bags. So, if you're feeling stressed, you can unwind and let your doctor ease away your worries.

Reduces Bruising & Swelling Post Eyelid Surgery

During your lymphatic drainage massage, your doctor can employ a specialised technique to target the post operative (post eyelid surgery) bruising and swelling, gradually smoothing swollen skin.

Post-treatment Precautions for Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Be Careful With Your Diet

For optimal lymphatic function and waste removal, consider avoiding alcohol and caffeinated drinks for 24 hours after your lymphatic drainage massage. Opt for a light diet rich in raw, whole foods and maintain a low sodium intake to support a healthy lymphatic system.

Stay Hydrated After Your Massage

After your massage, it is important to restore your body with water. Drinking 2-4 glasses can help flush out your lymphatic system and support kidney function in removing toxins. This hydration is essential to maintain optimal health & wellness post-treatment.

Wear Comfortable, Loose Clothing

Opting for loose clothing immediately following your lymphatic massage can significantly enhance lymph flow. Loose attire allows your lymphatic vessels to circulate efficiently, aiding in the elimination of toxins and promoting overall well-being.

Rest and Relax

After your lymphatic drainage massage, you may feel relaxed and sleepy. Listen to your body and avoid strenuous activity. Taking time to rest and relax allows your muscles to unwind, helps regulate blood pressure & supports the healing process.

Frequently
Asked Questions

What does lymphatic drainage feel like?

Many people report a tingling sensation or the feeling of fluid flowing under the skin, similar to a small stream. Some describe it as being able to breathe deeply for the first time in a while due to improved lymphatic flow in the sinuses. Others feel rejuvenated, while some experience deep relaxation.

What is the downtime for lymphatic drainage massage treatment?

There is no downtime required for treatment, and patients can resume their daily activities immediately afterwards. In various cases, your doctor may recommend appropriate aftercare to maintain optimal results.

What is manual lymphatic drainage?

Manual lymphatic drainage is performed by a specialised therapist or doctor using hand movements on the skin’s surface to help move fluid around the body.

Is the lymphatic drainage massage treatment painful?

Lymphatic drainage massage involves minimal discomfort, with some patients finding it relaxing enough during the treatment. It is non-invasive, and its gentle & rhythmic action further promotes relaxation.

What are the symptoms of lymphedema?

Symptoms of lymphedema can include swelling in various parts of the body such as the eyes, hands, arms, legs, feet, chest, breast, shoulder, face & groin. Additional symptoms may involve pain, changes in sensation, and feelings of heaviness & bloating. If you are worried about any of these symptoms, it is very important to consult your doctor.

How many lymphatic drainage treatments are needed?

The number of lymphatic drainage massage sessions needed depends on your goals. For reducing bloating and puffiness from water retention, noticeable results can often be seen after one session. However, for reducing festoons and improving skin tone, a series of treatments is usually necessary. It is usually recommended to take multiple sessions, and this will be discussed with your doctor during your consultation.
