Your body after surgery deserves the best care.
If you have undergone cosmetic surgery, post-surgical massage is highly recommended to speed up your body's recovery. This procedure is indicated after liposculpture, mammoplasty, as well as liposuction on the chin, arms and/or legs.
What is a Post Surgical Massage?
It is a specialized manual therapy technique focused on aiding recovery after a surgical procedure. This type of massage is specifically designed to reduce common post-surgical side effects such as pain, inflammation, adhesions, and scarring, thereby promoting better and faster healing.
Lymphatic drainage, for example, is a key component, as it helps eliminate accumulated fluids (edema) and toxins from the body, reducing swelling.
Benefits of Post-Surgical Massage
- Reduces inflammation and edema: By stimulating the lymphatic system, the massage helps remove retained fluids, reducing swelling and improving circulation.
- Pain relief: Releasing tension in the tissues can significantly reduce postoperative pain, providing a sense of relief.
- Prevents adhesions: After surgery, adhesions (scar tissue that attaches to other internal structures) can commonly form. Post-surgical massage helps mobilize tissues to prevent these adhesions from becoming restrictive.
- Enhances healing: Massage techniques soften scar tissue, which improves the texture and appearance of the skin in the affected area and can reduce pain associated with scarring.
- Restores mobility: A well-targeted massage helps regain range of motion by reducing stiffness and muscle tension, supporting a comprehensive recovery.
