Swelling and post-surgery cases often need 8 to 12 sessions, twice a week at the start, then weekly. Mild fluid retention may improve in 3 to 5 sessions. Maintenance for chronic conditions is usually 1 session every 2 to 4 weeks. Your therapist should reassess every 4 visits.
Lymphatic drainage is a manual therapy that uses very light, rhythmic strokes to move lymph fluid toward working lymph nodes. The pressure is much softer than a Swedish massage, usually around the weight of a 5 cent coin. It targets swelling, post-surgery recovery, and sluggish circulation. It is not a weight loss treatment.
Aggressive pressure causes bruising and tissue damage, so speak up if strokes feel heavy. Skipping water intake after treatment can trigger headaches or nausea. Booking too soon after surgery, such as within 48 hours, raises infection risk. Some clients miss the drainage of neck nodes first, which lowers whole-body results.
The pressure is lighter than a regular massage. It should feel like a slow stretch of the skin, around 10 to 30 mmHg of force. If the therapist presses hard enough to bend your muscles, the technique is wrong. Speak up if you feel pain or deep tissue work.
Drink 500 ml of water in the hour before the appointment. Skip alcohol and heavy meals 2 hours prior. After the session, keep drinking water, walk slowly for 10 to 15 minutes, and avoid tight clothes for 4 hours. Some clients feel mild fatigue or extra trips to the bathroom.
A 60 minute home visit generally costs between 90 and 160 in most urban areas, while clinic sessions run 70 to 130. Post-surgical packages often bundle 10 sessions at a 10 to 15 percent discount. Travel fees of 10 to 30 may apply for home visits beyond a 10 km radius from the therapist base.
Ask where the therapist studied and how many hours of lymphatic drainage training they completed. A complete course usually runs 30 to 60 hours. Verify they hold a license in massage therapy or physiotherapy. Avoid people who learned only through short weekend workshops without a certificate.
Tell the therapist if you have active cancer, thrombosis, heart failure, kidney problems, thyroid issues, or an untreated infection. These conditions change the technique or rule it out completely. Pregnancy is not a contraindication, but the therapist must adjust the protocol and the pressure used.
For post-surgical recovery, expect 8 to 15 sessions spread over 4 to 6 weeks. Maintenance for lipedema or chronic swelling is often 1 session every 2 weeks. A single one-off session gives a short-term feeling of lightness but rarely fixes the root cause. Your therapist should outline a plan after 3 visits.
Avoid any provider who promises permanent fat removal, who refuses to share credentials, or who pressures you into prepaid packages of 20 sessions upfront. A proper therapist reassesses at visit 3 and adjusts the plan. Equipment that vibrates or uses suction is not lymphatic drainage, even if marketed as such.
