We specialize in Post Surgical Therapy to help you recover in weeks verses months!
At the Health Studio Massage and Wellness Center we provide Lymphatic Massage, also known as Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Lymph Therapy, Vodder MLD or simply MLD. Lymphatic Massage is a gentle yet powerful technique. We have extensive experience in working with a multitude of surgical procedures including a wide variety of cosmetic and restorative surgeries and conditions.
We also work with individuals suffering from lymphedema, lipoedema, and the effects of stress and a sluggish lymph system. The Vodder Method of MLD is beneficial for over 40 conditions. We have seen beneficial results from conditions such as arthritis, ADD/ADHD, headaches, chronic pain and more. We work with patients who are suffering from chronic pain conditions to provide a natural holistic pain management option. MLD is very beneficial for reducing stress and the myriad of harmful effects. Manual Lymphatic Drainage activates the parasympathetic nervous system, or the natural relaxed state of peace and calm.
