Using gentle techniques, our experienced massage therapists target lymphatic drainage pathways to reduce puffiness, ease discomfort, recover faster following surgery or injury, and promote overall wellness.

Our body's filtration system, the lymphatic system, plays a key role in keeping us energized and healthy. It's a network of organs and vessels that work tirelessly to eliminate toxins. Sometimes, due to injury or surgery, this system can slow down. This can lead to a buildup of lymph fluid, causing inflammation and fatigue.
At Clarity Skin, we offer lymphatic massage, a manual technique that helps clear excess fluid and flush toxins. Many people experience a significant improvement in their overall well-being after a session. Many of our Clarity patients use lymphatic massage following surgical procedures to reduce swelling, often resulting in shorter recovery periods and reduced post-surgical discomfort.
