60-Minute Prenatal Lymphatic Drainage

Service Description

Pregnancy swelling is more than just puffy ankles. It’s heavy legs, tight rings, a face you don’t recognize in the mirror, and the kind of whole-body heaviness that makes everything harder. Your blood volume increases by nearly 50% during pregnancy, and your lymphatic system is working overtime to process all of it. Sometimes it needs help. Prenatal lymphatic drainage is specifically adapted for pregnancy — gentle, safe, and incredibly effective at reducing the fluid retention that builds up as your body changes. I use light, rhythmic Vodder-style movements to encourage lymph flow through your legs, arms, face, and abdomen (where safe and appropriate for your stage of pregnancy). You’ll be positioned comfortably with full support, and every session is adjusted based on where you are in your pregnancy and how your body is responding. This is different from our general prenatal massage, which combines Swedish, deep tissue, and therapeutic techniques for pain and tension relief. Prenatal lymphatic drainage is focused specifically on fluid management and swelling reduction. Many clients alternate between the two, or we combine elements of both depending on what you need that day. If your OB has mentioned swelling, if your legs feel like they belong to someone else, or if you’re just tired of feeling waterlogged — this session will help. Located in Kinnelon, NJ.
