Lymphatic Drainage Massage Las Vegas
NON-SURGICAL
Introduction to Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Our lymphatic system is essential for waste removal, maintaining fluid balance, supporting the immune system, and ensuring proper digestion. It works in concert with other systems in the body to promote health and protect against disease.This type of massage is often used to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and promote overall wellness and healing.
What is Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
Lymphatic drainage is a technique designed to stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body.
During a lymphatic drainage massage, the lymph stuck in your tissues is moved to your lymph nodes to ease the swelling occurring in your tissues.
What are the Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
Lymphatic Drainage Massage is often used to relieve lymphedema by offering some of the following benefits:
- Directs and increases lymphatic flow, which in turn prompts the removal of interstitial fluid quicker
- Energizes your body while promoting mental and physical relaxation, as well as providing an overall lightness in your body
- Helps improve your immune system by eliminating toxins
- Minimizes cellulite appearance by reducing excess fluid from pressing up against the fibers underneath your skin
- Reduces water retention and swelling
- Removes and transports any stagnant fluid
It’s also very helpful when dealing with the following afflictions:
- Chronic venous insufficiency: When your leg veins aren’t working effectively, making it hard for your blood to return to your heart from your legs.
- Fibromyalgia: Chronic muscle and joint pain
- Lipedema: Excess fat accumulates in your lower body, blocking your lymphatic pathway and causing lymphedema
- Rheumatoid arthritis: Ongoing arthritis in your joints causing joint pain, swelling, and stiffness
Not only does this treatment benefit your body, but it can help your mind as well. Lymphatic massage can protect you from seasonal viruses and give you a more relaxed, lighter feeling and provide you with more energy.

What to Expect on the Day of Lymphatic Drainage Massage
During a lymphatic drainage massage, you can expect a gentle, rhythmic, and purposeful approach designed to stimulate the flow of lymphatic fluid and promote healing.
The focus is on stimulating the lymphatic system rather than deep tissue manipulation. Specific Techniques: Techniques may include circular movements, gentle stretching, and pumping motions to encourage the flow of lymph fluid. The massage follows the natural pathways of the lymphatic system, which often involves moving from areas of congestion toward the lymph nodes.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage Recovery
Lymphatic drainage massage is designed to aid in recovery and promote well-being, so proper aftercare can help you get the most benefit from your sessions. Although a Lymphatic Drainage Massage is not a super intensive treatment, you may notice that your body feels exhausted. You should take the remainder of the day to rest up, relax your muscles, and most importantly, stay hydrated. We also recommend that you continue to gently stretch out your muscles to keep the lymphatic flow moving the way it should.
During the first few days following your treatment, you should stay active to continue with your recovery process, but try to not over-exert yourself. Although we’ve mentioned it earlier, we must remind you again to stay hydrated. You should also attempt to eat healthily and avoid fatty or greasy food. You may also be given some basic massage instructions to help keep the lymph moving and prevent future blockage. After your massages, you should begin feeling lighter, more relaxed, and have less muscle tension.
