60-Minute Post-Surgical Lymphatic Drainage

Service Description

Price shown is the full price of the session. Tips are never expected. A travel fee applies beyond a 15 minute drive of Kinnelon; the fees are listed at the end of this description. Surgery is trauma, even when it's planned, even when it goes perfectly. Your body responds with swelling, bruising, fluid retention, and inflammation. That's your lymphatic system doing its job. But after surgery, it often can't keep up on its own. Post-surgical manual lymphatic drainage helps your body process the excess fluid that accumulates after procedures like liposuction, tummy tucks, facelifts, breast surgery, joint replacements, and C-sections. The work is extremely gentle: feather-light pressure that moves fluid through your lymphatic pathways and into your lymph nodes, where your body can filter and eliminate it. Most clients notice a visible difference in swelling after their first session. I work closely with your surgical team's recovery timeline. Sessions can begin as early as a few days post-op (with physician clearance) and are tailored to your specific procedure, your stage of healing, and what your body needs that day. I also provide guidance on compression, self-care between sessions, and what to expect as you recover. If your surgeon recommended lymphatic drainage, or if you're recovering and feel like the swelling isn't resolving on its own, this is the session for you. This session comes to you. I bring the table, fresh linens, and everything else; you provide a quiet room with roughly seven by ten feet of clear floor and a door that closes. Travel is included within a 15-minute drive of Kinnelon. From 15 to 30 minutes, a $25 travel fee is added. From 30 to 45 minutes, the fee is $50 and sessions are booked at 90 minutes or longer. Beyond 45 minutes, the fee is $75, also with a 90-minute minimum, and I confirm availability before you book. Drive times are figured with typical traffic.
