The Benefits of Manual Lymphatic Drainage/Lymphatic Drainage Therapy in Post Surgical Recovery


Manual Lymphatic Drainage/Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is a gentle skin stretching technique that promotes the removal of excess lymphatic fluid from tissue spaces, facilitating its natural elimination through the body's urinary system. (Manual Lymphatic Drainage/Lymphatic Drainage Therapy is NOT painful and NEVER forces fluid through incisions.) The outcomes include:

  • Alleviation of pain.

  • Reduction of swelling.

  • Acceleration of healing.

  • Prevention and management of fibrotic tissue.

  • Improved recovery and appearance of scar tissue.

Genuine post-operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage/Lymphatic Drainage Therapy necessitates specialized training and certification. An experienced, professional therapist is a valued and tremendous asset in the education, assistance and support of the client throughout the recovery process.

Trained at the Academy of Lymphatic Studies (ACOLS), Nina Dmitrieff (CLT-LANA/MLD-C) is a Lymphology Association of North America Board Certified Lymphatic Therapist. She was educated and double certified in the original Vodder techniques of Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT/CLT), and has gone on to earn additional training and certifications in applied Lymphatic Drainage Therapy, including Head & Neck Lymphedema Management (Klose), specialized Pre-and Post-Operative care, Fibrosis and Scar Management (Lisson) - as well as the application of Lymphatic Cupping Therapy (ACE), which can help to achieve outstanding results.


For optimal results, we recommend scheduling your initial Manual Lymphatic Drainage/Lymphatic Drainage Therapy session prior to surgery to establish optimized lymphatic flow and drainage ahead of the post-operative phase.
