Post-operative massage at home

The most demanded and effective post-operative massage for the post-operative at home is the specialised manual Lymphatic Drainage.

Why is lymphatic drainage performed in the postoperative period?

Due to its anti-oedematous and analgesic action on smooth muscle fibres, lymphatic drainage is particularly indicated to reduce the so-called orange peel effect of cellulite and to treat post-surgical oedemas or scars. As for the effect on striated muscle fibres, this drainage is proposed to patients for its relaxing effect, especially in the case of tense or hypertonic muscles. In general, lymphatic drainage increases the response of the immune system, thus improving the response of the defence system in the areas treated with this massage.
What does post-operative massage or specialised lymphatic drainage at home consist of?

Home lymphatic drainage consists of a gentle and repetitive massage, whose rhythm, slower than that of traditional massage, and the adherence to the skin without the help of products favour the activation of the lymph and the elimination of stagnant liquids.
