🔹Will manual lymph drainage (MLD) hurt?
- No, most of your lymphatic vessels are just under your skin and very little pressure is needed to move the fluid toward your lymph nodes. MLD is typically very relaxing
🔹How soon after surgery can I get MLD?
- I like to see post-op patients a few days after surgery, but check with your surgeon for their recommendation.
🔹How many MLD sessions will I need?
- It depends on your procedure, overall health, and lifestyle. Most post-op clients need between 6–12 sessions, though I’ve seen anywhere from 3–18 sessions. Some clients choose to continue MLD sessions periodically for ongoing wellness and lymphatic support.
Healing is not one-size-fits-all and your care plan shouldn’t be either. 🤍
