Hygge is a state of mind experienced by yourself or shared with loved ones. It is a sense of coziness and peace; an appreciation of slowing down and living in the present with your piece of cake, or the book you're reading, or the breeze whispering in your hair, or the smiles shared between friends over a silly story. Oncology Massage is specially adapted to Cancer Survivors, whether still in treatment or long term survivors.
We adapt to accommodate for pressure and direction to prevent onset of lymphedema in an at-risk group and to provide massages suited for clientele with ports, low immunity and other common effects of cancer treatment. For clients with lymphedema we now offer "Complete Decongestive Therapy" (CDT), the gold standard in lymphedema treatment. Plastic Surgery Recovery can book individual sessions and Package to help them in their Aftercare needs.

The lymphatic system is part of our immune system; it carries debris of various kinds.
Excess proteins, bacteria, waste and toxins are carried to lymph nodes.
The material is filtered and is either expelled from the body or re-introduced to the blood stream.
The Lymphatic System consists of tissues and organs.
They include the bone marrow, thymus, lymph nodes and spleen, as well as the channels called lymph collectors, ducts and trunks, that carry lymph.
There is a series of vessels and glands that comprise the lymph system and they are spread throughout the body similar to blood vessels.

MLD is a light, skin stretching massage that helps promote the movement of lymphatic fluid in a desired direction.
It should not be confused with a traditional massage you receive at a spa.
MLD is very light and the target is not muscles.
MLD Therapy for Lymphedema is applied to your unaffected areas first, making it possible for the fluid to move out of the affected area, or as we say, "decongest."
An uncompromised lymphatic system that is receiving MLD for toxin removal, autoimmune benefits or similar things, will not necessarily follow the same sequence as for lymphedema.
