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.
HBOT enhances oxygen delivery to healing tissues, supports inflammation control and can accelerate recovery when combined with lymphatic drainage.
Swelling and inflammation after surgery can slow healing and affect comfort.
Persistent swelling may indicate reduced lymphatic drainage and requires specialist support.
Painful swelling, heaviness and easy bruising may be signs of lipoedema.
General swelling, puffiness and fluid retention can reflect lymphatic overload.
Advanced oxygen therapy to support healing, recovery and lymphatic health.
Many people experience overlapping symptoms. The best place to start is with a specialist assessment.
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.
