Hello, I am Cristina Lopes, founder of Lagom Clinic | Lymphatic Care.

My goal is to raise awareness of the lymphatic system and its importance to our immune system, as well as for lipedema treatments and conservative treatments for both lipedema and lymphedema.

I closely follow the latest scientific literature and incorporate new findings into our services whenever possible.

I have experience across various disciplines, including post-operative care, lymphedema, lipoedema, physiotherapy, lymphatic therapies, massage and early intervention programs for people at risk of developing lymphedema after cancer. I have worked closely with professionals specializing in nutrition and exercise.

I am certified by Macquarie University in Australia to treat head and neck lymphedema, breast lymphedema, upper and lower limb lymphedema, ge***al lymphedema, and lipoedema.

Additionally, I am an expert in post-operative care for cosmetic, aesthetic, general, oncology, orthopedic and lipoedema liposuction surgeries, using manual lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling, alleviate pain, and enhance tissue function, ensuring rapid and effective recovery.

Discover the principles that support MLD, a therapeutic technique designed to harmonize your lymphatic system.

Rhythmic Precision: MLD employs gentle, rhythmic movements tailored to the natural flow of your lymphatic system. These precise techniques aim to optimize the circulation of lymph fluid, reducing swelling and promoting overall well-being.

Breathe In, Flow Out: The Lymphatic Symphony 🍃

Your breath orchestrates a beautiful ballet for your lymphatic system! 🌬️ Deep breaths act like a gentle massage, aiding lymphatic fluid circulation.

🌬️ Deep Belly Breaths
Inhale deeply, let your belly expand, exhale slowly. This mindful breathing enhances chest pressure, promoting lymphatic circulation.

🧘‍♀️ Yoga and Lymph Flow
Twists and inversions in yoga stimulate lymphatic drainage. Pair with intentional breathwork for a powerful synergy.

🚶‍♂️ Movement and Breath
Combine regular physical activity with conscious breathing for a dynamic boost to lymphatic health.

✨ The Relaxation Effect
Stress impedes lymphatic flow. Deep breathing not only supports lymphatics but also reduces stress, promoting relaxation.

Engaging in breathing exercises post-manual lymphatic drainage enhances relaxation and complements the lymphatic system's natural flow, promoting sustained well-being.
