Lymphatic Drainage Massge
Has anyone tried lymphatic drainage massage to help reduce swelling after LBL?
Since returning to work I have gained 3 lbs of water, mainly in my abdomen. I know this will happen until the lymph ducts re-establish and time will be the ultimate cure. I just want to try and help things along.

I go 2x a week and see a world of difference. My surgeon recommended their massage therapist 2 weeks out and I'm so glad I did. I had a lot of swelling a bruising in my thighs from lipo and mobility was slow. Since the massages I'm moving like my olds self although I'm not 100%. Have it done and do know you'll need more that one session. I'm sure you'll feel much better afterwards.
