Lymphatic drainage massage, also known as lymphatic massage or lymphatic drainage therapy, is a specialized form of massage that focuses on stimulating the lymphatic system to improve lymphatic flow and promote the removal of excess fluid, waste products, and toxins from the body. The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance, immune function, and waste removal in the body.
Lymphatic drainage massage typically involves gentle, rhythmic movements and light pressure applied to the skin, following the natural flow of lymphatic vessels. The massage techniques used are designed to stimulate lymphatic flow, open up lymphatic pathways, and encourage the movement of lymphatic fluid toward the lymph nodes, where waste products can be filtered and eliminated from the body.

Postoperative lymphatic drainage, also known as postoperative lymphatic massage or post-surgical lymphatic drainage, is a specialized type of massage therapy that focuses on promoting lymphatic circulation and reducing swelling and inflammation after surgery. The lymphatic system is responsible for maintaining fluid balance in the body and plays a crucial role in immune function. After surgery, the lymphatic system may be compromised due to trauma, swelling, or removal of lymph nodes, which can result in lymphatic congestion and impaired drainage.
Post-operative lymphatic drainage typically involves gentle, rhythmic movements and light pressure applied to the skin to stimulate lymphatic flow and encourage the removal of excess fluid, waste products, and toxins from the body. The specific techniques used may vary depending on the area of the body that was treated surgically and the type of surgery performed.
Helping your recovery process and maximizing cosmetic results after liposuction, tummy tuck, or BBL. Post-op-LDM reduces swelling, treats seromas, prevents fibrosis (scar tissue formation), and removes metabolic waste and toxins that are stored in the tissues.
The lymphatic fluids accumulated after surgery also lead to swelling. The leftover fat and fluid can also harden after 1 to 3 weeks of surgery.
The post-op LDM treatment will help you get smoother skin and a firmer figure by draining the lymphatic fluid retention.
Cupping Treatments

Microcurrent Point Stimulation
Cupping is a traditional alternative therapy that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction, which is believed to stimulate blood flow and promote healing. The cups are typically made of glass, bamboo, or silicone and can be of various shapes and sizes. Cupping is used for a wide range of conditions, including muscle tension, pain, inflammation, respiratory conditions, and even as a form of relaxation.
The cupping process typically involves the following steps:
- Preparation: The patient's skin is cleaned and prepared for cupping. Sometimes, oils or lotions may be applied to the skin to help the cups glide smoothly.
- Cup placement: The cups are applied to the skin by creating a vacuum inside them. This can be done using different methods, such as heating the air inside the glass cups, using a flame to create a vacuum, or using a handheld pump with silicone cups. The cups are then quickly placed on the skin and left in place for a few minutes, or they may be moved around to create a massage-like effect.
- Suction effect: The cups create suction on the skin, which draws the skin and underlying tissue into the cups. This can cause the skin to turn red or purple, and may leave temporary marks known as "cupping marks" or "cupping bruises". These marks are not painful and usually fade within a few days.
- Removal: After the desired time has passed, the cups are removed by releasing the vacuum, which can be done by gently lifting the edge of the cup or by pressing a valve on silicone cups.

Microcurrent Point Stimulation
Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) is a specialized form of massage that utilizes low-level electrical currents to stimulate specific acupoints on the body.
During an MPS massage session, Doña uses a handheld device that delivers gentle electrical currents through electrode pads or probes, which are applied to specific acupoints on the body. The electrical currents used in MPS are typically very low in intensity and are designed to mimic the body's natural electrical signals.
Microcurrent Point Stimulation(MPS) Therapy applies concentrated microcurrent stimulation to produce an "acupuncture" response that releases muscle tissue that impinges nerves and causes joint articulation.

Lymphatic System
The lymphatic system is a vital part of the body's immune system, comprising a network of lymph vessels, nodes, and ducts. Its primary function is to collect and circulate excess fluid (lymph) that has leaked from blood vessels into tissues, and return it to the bloodstream. The lymphatic system also plays a critical role in defending the body against infections, diseases, and other harmful substances. Lymph nodes, which are scattered throughout the body and connected by lymph vessels, act as filters that trap and remove foreign particles, such as bacteria, viruses, and cancer cells, from the lymphatic fluid. In addition, the lymphatic system includes organs such as the spleen, which help produce and store white blood cells, and bone marrow, where many immune cells are generated.
The lymphatic system is a complex and interconnected network that plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's health and wellbeing.
Lymphatic drainage massage is a type of massage therapy that can help to alleviate swelling or edema caused by blockages or problems in the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is responsible for transporting lymph, a clear fluid containing immune cells and waste products, throughout the body.
When the lymphatic system is not functioning properly, such as after surgery or in cases of lymphedema, excess fluid can build up in the tissues, causing swelling and discomfort.
Lymphatic drainage massage works by stimulating the lymphatic system and encouraging the flow of lymphatic fluid. The massage therapist uses gentle, rhythmic strokes and light pressure to help move the lymphatic fluid towards the lymph nodes, where it can be processed and eliminated from the body. This can help to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and promote healing.Lymphatic drainage massage is often used as a complementary therapy alongside medical treatment for conditions that affect the lymphatic system, such as lymphedema, cancer, or post-surgical swelling. However, it is important to speak with your healthcare provider before beginning any new treatment, including massage therapy, to ensure that it is safe and appropriate for your individual needs.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage
When undergoing a lymphatic drainage massage, there are several things you can expect:
Gentle, rhythmic movements: Lymphatic drainage massage typically involves gentle, rhythmic movements that are slow and repetitive. The massage therapist will use light pressure and specific techniques that are designed to stimulate the lymphatic system and promote the flow of lymphatic fluid.
Focused areas: Lymphatic drainage massage is often focused on specific areas of the body where the lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels are concentrated, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and limbs. The therapist may also target areas of swelling or congestion, depending on your specific needs.
Comfortable environment: Lymphatic drainage massage is typically performed in a comfortable and relaxing environment. You may be asked to lie down on a massage table or sit in a comfortable chair, and the therapist may use towels or blankets to keep you warm and comfortable during the session.
Use of oil or lotion: Lymphatic drainage massage is usually performed using little or no oil or lotion, as the therapist needs to use gentle, gliding movements on the skin without too much friction. However, some therapists may use a small amount of oil or lotion to make the movements smoother.
Sensation of light pressure: Lymphatic drainage massage typically involves light pressure that is applied in a repetitive, rhythmic manner. You may feel a gentle, wave-like sensation as the therapist moves their hands over your skin, helping to stimulate the flow of lymphatic fluid.Relaxation and calming effects: Lymphatic drainage massage is known for its relaxing and calming effects. Many people find it to be a soothing and gentle form of massage that promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and helps them to feel more balanced and rejuvenated.
Increased need to urinate: Lymphatic drainage massage can stimulate the lymphatic system and promote the removal of waste products and toxins from the body. As a result, you may experience an increased need to urinate during or after the session, as your body eliminates the excess fluid and waste.
Possible emotional release: Massage therapy, including lymphatic drainage massage, can sometimes trigger emotional release as tension and stress are released from the body. It's important to be aware that you may experience a range of emotions during or after the session, and this can be a normal part of the healing process.
Hydration recommendation: Lymphatic drainage massage can increase the need for hydration, as the lymphatic system relies on an adequate amount of water to function optimally. After the session, your therapist may recommend drinking plenty of water to help flush out toxins and support the lymphatic system.
Post-Op Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Postoperative lymphatic drainage massage is a specific type of lymphatic drainage massage that is performed after surgery to help reduce swelling, promote healing, and support the body's natural recovery process. Here are some things you can expect while undergoing post-op lymphatic drainage massage:
Gentle, targeted movements: Post-op lymphatic drainage massage involves gentle, targeted movements that are tailored to the specific needs and condition of the individual who has undergone surgery. The massage therapist will use light pressure and specific techniques that are designed to stimulate the lymphatic system and promote the flow of lymphatic fluid in the areas affected by the surgery.
Focus on post-surgical areas: Post-op lymphatic drainage massage is typically focused on the areas of the body that have been affected by the surgery. This may include areas where lymph nodes have been removed, such as in breast cancer surgery or other types of surgeries that involve lymph node dissection. The therapist may also target areas of swelling or congestion, as well as any surgical scars.
Reduced pressure on sensitive areas: The massage therapist will take into consideration any surgical incisions, drains, or other sensitive areas, and will adjust the pressure and techniques accordingly to avoid causing discomfort or pain. The therapist will use a gentle, slow, and cautious approach to ensure that the massage is safe and effective for the post-surgical condition.
Comfortable environment: Similar to regular lymphatic drainage massage, post-op lymphatic drainage massage is typically performed in a comfortable and relaxing environment. You may be asked to lie down on a massage table or sit in a comfortable chair, and the therapist may use towels or blankets to keep you warm and comfortable during the session.
Increased need to urinate: As with regular lymphatic drainage massage, post-op lymphatic drainage massage can also stimulate the lymphatic system and promote the removal of excess fluid and waste products from the body. This may result in an increased need to urinate during or after the session, as the body eliminates the excess fluid.Possible emotional release: Massage therapy, including post-op lymphatic drainage massage, can sometimes trigger emotional release as tension and stress are released from the body. It's important to be aware that you may experience a range of emotions during or after the session, and this can be a normal part of the healing process.
Hydration recommendation: Similar to regular lymphatic drainage massage, post-op lymphatic drainage massage may also increase the need for hydration. Your therapist may recommend drinking plenty of water after the session to help flush out toxins and support the lymphatic system.
It's important to communicate with your massage therapist about your post-operative condition, including any surgical incisions, drains, or other concerns.
