Lymphatic Drainage

The lymphatic system is how your body clears fluid, waste, and inflammation, and unlike your blood it has no pump of its own. It relies on movement and muscle to keep flowing. Lymphatic drainage uses very light, precise, rhythmic strokes to encourage that flow, ease swelling, and support recovery. If you're expecting deep pressure, this will surprise you. It's some of the lightest work I do, and some of the most effective for the right situation. It's my go-to for pulling people out of seasonal allergies and autoimmune flare-ups. People tell me they feel more like themselves afterward, and I notice that their eyes look brighter.

Good for

• Seasonal allergies, sinus pressure, and that foggy, congested feeling
• Autoimmune flare-ups, easing the load on an overworked system
• Swelling and puffiness, especially in the legs, arms, or face
• Recovery after surgery, once your provider has cleared you for massage
• Sluggishness and fatigue
• Supporting the immune system during seasonal changes
• Conditions where deep pressure isn't tolerated

What to expect

Very light touch, slow and repetitive, mostly on the neck, torso, and limbs. Many people find it deeply relaxing and some fall asleep. You may notice you need to use the restroom soon after, and that's the system doing what we asked it to. Drink water afterward.

A note before booking

If you have a heart condition, kidney condition, active infection, or a recent blood clot, please talk with your doctor first. Lymphatic work moves fluid, and there are situations where that isn't the right thing to do.
