Our Team

The therapists who move fluid the way the body actually moves it.

Every person at this table trained in manual lymphatic drainage rather than general massage. The work is gentle, the assessment comes first, and the standard is the same in all three clinics.

The therapists

One method, taught table to table.

Sharon Vogel built the method the whole practice runs on and still teaches it to the team. Whichever clinic you visit, the drainage follows your anatomy and your condition, in the order the body needs.
