Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lymphatic Massage - 80 Mins.

Your therapist uses gentle, rhythmic strokes and light pressure to encourage lymph flow. The 80-minute session focuses on key nodes and drainage pathways, promoting relaxation, reduced puffiness, and a detoxifying sensation. Wear comfortable clothing; most clients feel calm and refreshed.

Lymphatic drainage is often safe, but pregnancy requires medical clearance. We typically modify techniques and avoid certain positions, especially in the first trimester. Inform your therapist and your OB/GYN; we'll adapt the 80-minute session to ensure comfort and safety.

Many clients notice improvement after one treatment, but a series of 3–6 weekly sessions is commonly recommended for lasting detox and circulation benefits. Maintenance sessions every 4–8 weeks can help sustain results based on individual needs and health goals.

Hydrate well before your appointment and avoid heavy meals or alcohol. Wear loose, comfortable clothing and arrive slightly early to discuss medical history. After treatment, continue drinking water, rest if needed, and follow any personalized aftercare your therapist provides.

Contraindications include untreated infections, active cancer without medical approval, deep vein thrombosis, and certain heart or kidney conditions. Always disclose medications and health history during booking; we’ll assess suitability and may require physician clearance before scheduling an 80-minute lymphatic session.

The massage feels light and rhythmic rather than deep kneading; many clients sense gentle movement and warmth as fluids shift. Immediately afterward you may feel relaxed or mildly tired; increased urination and reduced swelling are common within 24–48 hours.
