Lymphatic Drainage Massage in Littleton, CO
Light, rhythmic strokes that move lymph fluid, reduce swelling, and support your body’s natural detoxification and immune response.
Who Comes In for Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Our lymphatic drainage massage clients come from every corner of Littleton and the south metro. Here’s who we see most.
Post-surgical recovery
Especially helpful after cosmetic or orthopedic procedures — always with surgeon clearance.
Chronic inflammation or puffiness
For clients who feel swollen, sluggish, or heavy — lymphatic work often brings noticeable relief.
Immune system support
Regular lymphatic drainage may support immune function during stressful seasons.
Travel recovery
Long-haul flights cause fluid retention. A 60-minute session resets the system.
Complements other therapeutic work
Great pairing with deep tissue — the lymph work flushes what deep tissue releases.

What to Expect: Our Process
Every session is assessment-driven and customized. Here’s how it works.
1. Assessment
We confirm it’s the right modality for you and rule out contraindications (untreated infections, heart failure, etc.).
2. Rhythmic drainage
Light, deliberate strokes in the direction of lymph flow — neck, chest, abdomen, limbs.
3. Hydration and rest guidance
Lymph work mobilizes fluid. You’ll want water and a calm evening afterward.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage FAQs
Why is the pressure so light?
Lymphatic vessels sit just below the skin. Deep pressure actually blocks lymph flow. The light, rhythmic touch is intentional and effective.
How soon will I notice results?
Swelling and puffiness typically reduce within hours. For chronic swelling, a series of weekly sessions produces the best results.
Is this safe after surgery?
Only with your surgeon’s written clearance. Lymphatic drainage is often recommended post-op, but timing matters.
Can I combine it with other massage?
Yes — a 90-minute session can be split: 30 minutes deep tissue, 60 minutes lymphatic. Your therapist will sequence it correctly.
Will I feel different the next day?
Most clients report lighter, less puffy, and more energized. Some feel mild fatigue the day of as the body processes — that’s normal.
