Lymphatic massage is important in helping the body heal after surgery. I have lost count on how many of these types of massages I have completed. I have had girls come to me that their doctor said they didn't need to get massages after their procedure or wait three months. By the time they come to me they are in lots of pain or have seroma and need to be drained. Some are beyond that and now have Fibrosis. Fibrosis is from the build up of adhesions , scars and sometimes protein under the skin that hardens . Lymphatic massage can help get them out but can be very painful! It is not necessary to get fibrosis if you start massage right way after surgery. Many doctors tell their patients to get massages and how many but unfortunately there are some doctors that say no and causes problems in most patients down the road of recovery. Lymphatic massage can reduce chances of infection, reduces pain and heals the body faster. Just make sure you research the therapist if you have a tummy tuck or any type of incision and make sure they are experienced in that type of massage.
