POST-SURGERY RESULTS 🤯
Lymphatic Drainage can be a wonderful way to support the body during post-operative recovery.
After surgery, inflammation and swelling are a normal part of the healing process. The lymphatic system helps move excess fluid from the tissues, but following surgery, swelling can sometimes build up and leave the body feeling tight, heavy, uncomfortable and very swollen.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialised technique that encourages the movement of lymphatic fluid and can help reduce swelling and feelings of discomfort.
This client came to me 11 days post-op, experiencing significant swelling following their surgical procedure and looking for some relief and support with fluid drainage.
These results are after just ONE SESSION! 🤯
The visible reduction is consistent with a reduction in excess fluid and swelling.
A few important things to remember:
✨ Lymphatic Drainage is a gentle treatment and should never be painful.
✨ Post-operative treatment must be appropriate for the individual and their stage of recovery.
✨ Always follow your surgeon's post-operative guidance and obtain their approval before booking lymphatic drainage.
✨ Lymphatic Drainage is not a weight-loss treatment. These images show a change in swelling/fluid, not a loss of body fat.
✨ Results vary from person to person and one session may not produce the same result for everyone.
✨ If you have unusual, sudden or worsening swelling, redness, heat, severe pain, fever, chest pain or shortness of breath after surgery, seek medical advice rather than relying on massage.
