Frequently asked
questions.
A few of the questions clients often have before their first appointment.
What is lymphatic drainage?
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique intended to support the movement of lymphatic fluid through the body.
What is the difference between Manual and Brazilian lymphatic drainage?
Manual lymphatic drainage uses gentle, rhythmic techniques with a focus on lymph flow and fluid movement. Brazilian lymphatic drainage has a more sculpting-focused approach and may use firmer, more flowing techniques.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
See the Pre-Treatment page for the full preparation guidance.
What should I do after treatment?
Stay hydrated, avoid alcohol and caffeine for 72 hours, choose nourishing meals and rest if needed. See the Aftercare page for more detail.
Can I have treatment after surgery?
Post-operative treatment is only appropriate in certain circumstances. You should have appropriate medical clearance and discuss your circumstances during consultation before booking.
