LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE

Lymphatic drainage massage is a specialised treatment that supports the body’s natural lymphatic system using precise, gentle manual techniques. The lymphatic system plays a vital role in maintaining fluid balance, removing cellular waste, and supporting healthy immune function. When lymph flow becomes sluggish, it can contribute to swelling, fluid retention, and a feeling of heaviness.

At the Movement Clinic our evidence-informed approach uses slow, rhythmic movements to encourage lymphatic circulation, helping to reduce oedema, improve tissue health, and promote the body’s natural healing processes. Lymphatic drainage massage can be beneficial following injury or surgery (when medically appropriate), as well as for managing mild fluid retention (lymphoedema), reducing puffiness, and supporting recovery from physical activity.

Unlike traditional massage, lymphatic drainage uses very light pressure to work with the superficial lymphatic vessels rather than the deeper muscles. Treatments are tailored to your individual needs following a thorough consultation, ensuring they are both safe and effective.

Whether you’re recovering from a procedure, looking to reduce swelling, or simply want to support your body’s natural recovery processes, our experienced therapists provide personalised care in a professional, welcoming environment.
