LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE

Two different mechanisms produce the results you feel from this work. Compression moves fluid along your limb toward your heart, which brings swelling down and eases the soreness and muscle tightness that came with it. Cupping opens space in tissue where circulation has gone stagnant, and the cups reduce the knots sitting underneath your skin. Your flexibility improves as both of those changes take hold. Clients on a regular schedule tend to hold that flexibility between visits.

This service suits a wide range of people. Amateur athletes and fitness enthusiasts use it between training sessions to help muscle tissue recover and to reduce inflammation building up in their joints. Busy professionals and first responders come in for swelling that follows long shifts or long stretches of standing. Active seniors use it to stay comfortable and moving through a full week. Anyone recovering from a soft tissue injury may find it helpful as part of a plan built with one of our specialists.

We offer two forms of this work at our facility, and each one suits a different situation. Sequential compression uses attachments that fit over your limbs or hips. They inflate gently to conform to your shape, then work through the limb in a rhythmic pattern that moves fluid toward your heart. A session runs from 20 to 60 minutes based on what you're after. Cupping takes the opposite route, because the cups lift your tissue upward and create space beneath it for drainage.

Both forms are considered safe for most people. Cupping suits some situations better than others, and a few of them call for your doctor's okay first. People on blood thinners or with blood disorders fall into that group. Anyone with an open wound or a skin infection should hold off until it clears, and the same goes for someone with fragile skin or a vascular condition. We don't require a medical note or a referral to book any of our wellness services, though checking with your doctor makes sense if you're unsure.

Education sits at the center of how we work, so you'll leave understanding what we did and why it suited you. Each member of our team knows how recovery works, and we build your plan around your activity level and your goals. Our facility sits in Corona and we serve the greater Riverside County area. Evening hours are available because our clients have full schedules already.
