Lymphatic Drainage
in Bradenton & Sarasota, FL
For plastic surgery patients, sessions may help with swelling during recovery, once your surgeon clears you.
Wellness sessions are also available for recovery after sports and exercise, and for relaxation.
Lymphatic drainage may support:
Reduced swelling after surgery
Recovery after sports and exercise
Circulation
A feeling of lightness and relaxation
Overall wellness and recovery
Lymphatic drainage supports recovery; it does not replace your surgeon’s instructions. After surgery, keep following all guidance about garments, activity and follow-up visits.
Here is what a typical session looks like:
Wear comfortable clothing to your appointment.
You lie back and relax while the FlowPresso applies gentle, rhythmic pressure.
Drink water before and after your session.
Tell our team about recent surgery, swelling, pain or any medical condition.
Let us know about any blood clots or circulation problems.
Most people return to their day right after a session.
Lymphatic drainage may suit adults recovering from surgery or exercise, or anyone looking for a relaxing recovery treatment.
People often ask about lymphatic drainage after:
Liposuction or body contouring
Tummy tuck or mommy makeover
Other cosmetic surgery, once cleared by their surgeon
Sports, training or long days on their feet
Travel or long periods of sitting
Compression therapy is not right for everyone. Tell your provider if you have:
A current or past blood clot (DVT)
Heart failure or other heart conditions
An active infection or open wounds
Pregnancy
Recent surgery without your surgeon’s clearance
Another significant medical condition

Only after your surgeon clears you. Timing depends on your procedure and how you are healing.
No. Many people use it for recovery after sports or exercise, after travel, or simply to relax.
