Is there a surgical procedure in your future? Manual Lymphatic Drainage can help

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a treatment that moves excess fluid out of the body, helping to stimulate and create a better functioning immune system.  By” draining” your lymphatic system, MLD assists in preparing your body for surgery, and maintaining good health.

If you are scheduled for a surgery, one to three MLD treatments are recommended prior to the operation. Once a surgery is complete, our clinicians at Head To Foot Oasis recommend beginning MLD treatments one full day after the procedure.

If you are scheduled for surgery such as:

• Hip or knee replacement
• Breast augmentation
• Cosmetic Surgery such as nose or face lift
• Carpal Tunnel release
• Liposuction
• Shoulder surgery
• Dental or an oral surgery
• And many more…

Some of the benefits of planning for MLD treatments as part of a surgical procedure include:

• Pain relief
• A reduction in edema or swelling, which helps to speed up healing and recovery time
• A re-stimulated immune system which helps to prevent post-surgical infections
• Deep relaxation to aid insomnia, depression and stress
• The encouragement of lymphatic “re-routs”
• A detoxification of body tissues, which helps to reverse a build-up of toxins
