About Lymphatic Drainage
Price You Should Expect to Pay
At home, a 60-minute full body session usually costs between 60 and 90 in local currency. A 30-minute targeted session runs 35 to 55. Prices in big cities trend higher, while rural areas trend lower. A first appointment may include a 10 to 15 minute assessment with no extra fee.
What to Ask Before Hiring
Ask where the therapist trained, how many hours of hands-on practice they completed, and if they hold a current license in massage or physiotherapy. Request a copy of their insurance certificate. Confirm they know your specific condition, whether it is post-liposuction, lipedema, or primary lymphedema.
Pressure Level You Should Feel
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.
Main Techniques Used
Therapists trained in the Vodder, Földi, or Casley-Smith method follow mapped pathways. Each session starts near the neck or groin to clear the main ducts first, then works outward. Sessions last 45 to 90 minutes depending on the area. Clients lie on a treatment table and remain clothed in soft fabric.
Home Visit Practical Details
Therapists need a flat surface about 2 meters long, a quiet room, and access to a sink. Allow 10 minutes of setup and 10 minutes of cleanup either side of the actual session. Pets should be secured. Keep a written log of limb measurements and symptoms to share at every visit for accurate tracking.
What to Do Before and After
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.
Preparing for the Session
Drink 500 ml of water in the 2 hours before the appointment and avoid alcohol the day before. Wear loose cotton clothing. Do not apply lotion or oil on the skin since it blocks the light grip. Have your compression garment ready if you are mid-recovery. Empty your bladder right before treatment.
What Changes the Final Price
Travel distance, evening hours, and weekend bookings add 10 to 20 to the base rate. Combining lymphatic drainage with another technique like myofascial release raises the price. Specialized post-mastectomy or post-liposuction training also increases the quote, since the work requires extra care.
Typical Price Ranges
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.
Session Length and Room Setup
A full body session takes 50 to 75 minutes. For a single area like legs or arms, expect 25 to 40 minutes. The room should be warm, quiet, and have a hydraulic table at proper height. A clean sheet, blanket, and pillow must be provided for every client.
