General Wellness Lymphatic Drainage
Massage that helps manage your swelling and bloat for the long term.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage
(The Vogel Method)
Our flagship. Gentle, precise drainage to move fluid and reduce swelling.
Safety first. Lymphatic work is not right for everyone. We do not perform drainage on patients with AFib, COPD, emphysema, blood clots, or an active infection. Those are outside our scope of care, and severe or acute lymphedema can need a hospital lymphedema clinic with emergency care on site. We will guide you there if that is what your situation calls for.

Absolutely amazing therapist. Helped me to recover from my post op process. Applied perfect pressure. Assisted with my fibrous tissue. Pleasant and kind personality. Asked if I was comfortable. Went the extra mile with lifting my legs to prop them up properly. She's the only reason I return! Relaxing music too. Thanks Luda!
