Our Story

Post-operative Manual Lymph Drainage & Concierge Cosmetic After-Care Nursing Services

Manual Lymph Drainage

Manual lymph drainage (MLD) is a gentle massage technique that encourages the movement of lymph fluid to reduce swelling, boost circulation, and support the body’s natural detoxification and healing processes. We offer a special post-op service to help you recover and heal your body.

Post-Operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Surgery, whether cosmetic or medical, triggers your body's natural healing response—including inflammation and fluid accumulation. Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a specialized, gentle massage technique that supports your recovery by stimulating your lymphatic system to remove excess fluid, reduce swelling, and promote faster healing.

Why MLD Matters Post-Operatively:

Reduces Swelling & Bruising: MLD helps move trapped fluid away from surgical sites, minimizing discomfort and visible bruising.
Accelerates Healing: By improving circulation and removing metabolic waste, MLD creates an optimal environment for tissue repair.
Prevents Complications: Regular sessions can reduce the risk of fibrosis (hardened scar tissue), seromas (fluid pockets), and prolonged inflammation.
Enhances Surgical Results: Especially after cosmetic procedures, MLD helps contour and smooth treated areas, revealing your best outcome.
Supports Overall Wellness: MLD boosts immune function and promotes relaxation, helping your body heal holistically.

Client Testimonials

Stephanie gave me the most relaxing massage/ lymphatic drainage session I’ve ever had. Her space is peaceful and comfortable and I left feeling completely relaxed and recharged.

Malorie Harris

Stephanie was amazing! She was very communicative throughout the microneedling process and very gentle. My skin was awful to work with but she still worked her magic and gave so much life back to my face. I definitely recommend her services.

Lisette

If you’ve never had an Ashiatsu Massage, you must have one by Stephanie! It is life changing! Stephanie has created such a relaxing and comforting environment! You can tell she has true passion for what she does!

Michelle Blanford

I underwent lymphatic massage after having an extended abdominoplasty (started two weeks post op), and the difference was unbelievable. Stephanie is phenomenal, and i noticed huge differences in swelling going down with each session. I had increased mobility, decreased swelling, and was able to get rid of extra fluid.
