POST OP MASSAGES
After a person undergoes surgery, a massage can often help to reduce scarring, stress and acute pain. Various physiological effects occur during a massage after surgery including lymphatic drainage, increased tissue elasticity and increased vasodilation.
Post Operative Lymphatic Drainage Packages available call the Spa at 407-556-5033
Some patients experience post-surgery accumulation of liquid or tissues beneath the skin that can harden and form lumps and possible fibrosis. Lymphatic massage is a type of gentle massage that encourages blood flow and lymph drainage to help prevent this. Once the lymph is drained, the reabsorption process begins. This helps ease the pain and discomfort immediately. The waste tissue will be naturally removed from the body. Lymphatic massage is a very safe and effective way to speed the healing process and improve comfort post-surgery. The lymphatic system flushes fluid through the body to help in the detoxifying process. Post-surgery, your lymphatic system may be damaged or backed up. A post-operative lymphatic massage can help facilitate the movement of fluid in the proper drainage canals, which will relieve pressure. This allows the lymphatic system to be at the height of effectiveness when a patient needs it most. For most patients, this massage can speed recovery, ease discomfort, help reduce stress and anxiety, and prevent and break up permanent scar tissue. These types of massages have many other benefits, too, including detoxification, pain alleviation, and relaxation. Your immune system will also benefit from these massages, which is crucial during a post-operative time of healing.

Facelift Lymphatic Post Operative Massage 50-min/$70
A lymphatic massage after a facelift helps to ease common side effects: swelling, bruising, and discomfort. It is normal for some areas to feel firm and thickened as you heal from the surgery. While aggressive massage can accelerate inflammation and irritation, a gentle fingertip massage or lymphatic massage will not. Lymphatic massage is a gentle, upward massage that increases blood flow, activates the lymph nodes, and triggers lymph drainage. Facelift side effects will not go away immediately after a lymphatic massage, but by improving the patient’s blood circulation these symptoms will cease sooner.
