Post Surgical Massage

PROVEN TO REDUCE SWELLING AND STIFFNESS AFTER SURGERY

Book a Top Rated Post Surgical Massage

Looking to enhance your recovery process and get back to feeling like your best self after surgery? At Zion Plastic Surgery, our skilled and experienced massage therapists are trained in top-rated post-surgical massage techniques designed to stimulate the lymphatic system, a network of vessels and glands that help eliminate toxins from the body.

Furthermore, we find that many of our patients experience swelling and inflammation after surgery, which can cause discomfort after a few days if not treated properly. Therefore, a lymphatic drainage massage helps with reducing these surgery side effects and can help treat physical injuries. This gentle and effective massage has many benefits, including reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and boosting your immune system, leaving you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Additionally, lymphatic drainage massages are conducted by applying light pressure on the lymph node parts of your body. During the massage, lymph fluid gets released, carrying healing cells and nutrients into your bloodstream and eliminating waste from your body. Zion Plastic Surgery’s trained massage specialists will communicate with you to apply the right amount of pressure and rhythm on the lymphatic areas of the body, ensuring the desired results.

Our professionals recommend patients undergo a lymphatic drainage massage for up to one hour duration and book up to ten massage sessions after their surgery.

Lymphatic drainage massage in Miami should not be confused with regular massages for relaxation purposes only. Lymphatic drainage massage is often done by trained professionals who have undergone extensive training in the practice. The risks of getting a cheaper, unprofessional lymphatic drainage massage can include the following:

  • Infection from bacteria or viruses
  • Injury from improper techniques, tools or equipment

Typically, a lymphatic drainage massage can last between 30 minutes to an hour.

The length of a massage depends on your type of procedure, state of health and road to recovery, so always follow the advice of your cosmetic surgeon.

These massages are gentle and pain-free, especially if your specialist is a certified professional from Zion Plastic Surgery. It is vital that you find a specialized therapist who can perform massages correctly and knows the right movements to help move the lymphatic fluid and avoid pain.

To ensure the most effective and comfortable massage session, clothes are often removed during a massage session. If you would rather keep your clothes on, wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing that will make it easy for the masseuse to maneuver.
