Why Lymphatic Support Matters After Surgery

Surgery places significant stress on the lymphatic system. Swelling, fluid retention and inflammation are natural responses, but when supported correctly, recovery can be smoother and more comfortable.

We support recovery in stages and tailor care to your surgery and healing process.

We commonly support:

Our Post-Operative Recovery Approach

Early Stage Recovery

Gentle lymphatic drainage to support fluid movement, reduce swelling and ease discomfort while respecting tissue sensitivity and surgical healing timelines.

Healing & Repair Phase

Targeted support for tissue repair, inflammation control and scar health as the body moves from acute healing into repair and regeneration.

Tissue Integration & Scar Support

Focused techniques to support tissue mobility, reduce restriction, improve circulation and minimise long-term scar tightness or fibrosis.

Ongoing Recovery & Optimisation

Maintain lymphatic flow, support long-term tissue quality and reduce the risk of persistent swelling, heaviness or post-surgical complications.

HBOT in Post-Operative Recovery

HBOT enhances oxygen delivery to healing tissues, supports inflammation control and can accelerate recovery when combined with lymphatic drainage.

I’ve been told I may have lipoedema

Painful swelling, heaviness and easy bruising may be signs of lipoedema.

04

I feel heavy, inflamed or congested

General swelling, puffiness and fluid retention can reflect lymphatic overload.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Lymphatic drainage is commonly used to support post-operative recovery by helping to reduce swelling, manage fluid retention and support tissue healing.

Treatments are adapted based on your surgery type and recovery stage.

This varies depending on your goals, symptoms and medical history.

Some clients benefit from occasional maintenance treatments, while others require structured support over a period of time - particularly following surgery or when managing conditions such as lymphoedema.

We will guide you after your assessment.

No. Lymphatic drainage is typically very gentle and rhythmic. It works with the body’s natural lymphatic flow rather than using deep pressure.

Many clients find treatments deeply relaxing, although some areas may feel more sensitive depending on swelling or recovery stage.

Many clients feel lighter, less swollen or more relaxed after treatment. Some people notice increased thirst or tiredness as the body processes fluid movement - this is normal.

Yes. We provide specialist home visits for clients who prefer treatment at home or find travel difficult.

This includes post-operative recovery, lymphoedema support, post-natal, cancer care and general lymphatic treatments.

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. You may be asked to undress to your underwear depending on the treatment area, but your comfort and privacy are always prioritised.

You don’t need to decide this yourself.

We recommend starting with a specialist assessment. During this appointment, we review your symptoms, history and goals before recommending the most appropriate treatment or recovery pathway.

The best starting point is a specialist assessment. This allows us to understand your needs and guide you toward the most appropriate support.
