I have been looking after a lot of clients after their cosmetic/ plastic surgery.
Here are some evidence why MLD (Manual Lymph Drainage) is essential after the surgery.
BUT Pre-operative MLD is as important as post-operative MLD in order to prepare your body for upcoming surgery by activate your lymphatic system.

For health professionals in the aesthetic and plastic surgery space, achieving optimal client satisfaction involves a comprehensive, evidence-based post-operative recovery plan. While transient swelling is a usual and expected consequence of body-altering procedures, the management of early post-ope...

Intuition.

I didn’t know that this exists until I took the courses of Creniosacral therapy course 12 years ago.

Culturally, or maybe because of my age group, I cared the harmony of community/ society over myself, but I must admit that I was feeling emptiness inside myself.

Intuition is different to gut feeling. It has more fullness, I guess.

What is your intuition telling you now? Does it tell you “go softer”?

When I started learning about Oncology massage before creniosacral therapy , that was when I learned what the soft touch can do. It was a big turning point for me when I was a typical remedial massage therapist.

Go softer doesn’t mean you are a softy. Like MLD. It might be soft but can be poweful.

This is a little bit different post, but I thought I wanted to share my thoughts at the begging of 2026.

I had a huge week this week, the first week of 2026 at the clinic. I saw about 40 people in my room.
Hope you all are having a good start of the new year, communicating with your intuition💞

Happy New Year to all😊

【New Service】

✨ Happy New Year, everyone ✨
I hope 2026 has started well for you.

As I reflected at the end of 2025, I decided to introduce something new this year.

For the past 3–4 years, my schedule has been fully booked, and through that experience I realised I can offer something a little more — and a little different — to better support clients with ongoing and complex conditions.

🌿 Introducing a Treatment Series Package

For many chronic or complex conditions, a single 60-minute session per week is often not enough to see meaningful progress or to work effectively toward a goal.
To address this, I have created a treatment series with extra appointment spots outside my usual clinical hours.

Available times:
• Monday 4:00pm
• Wednesday 11:00am
• Friday 4:00pm

The initial consultation is 60 minutes.
Follow-up sessions are 40–45 minutes.

3 appointments per week:
💲 $310 + GST (Total $341)

This treatment series may be beneficial for:
• Stroke with hemiplegia
• Tinnitus
• Ménière’s syndrome
• Stress-related migraine
• Bronchitis
for example.

The following conditions can also be supported in the acute stage:
• Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder)
• Concussion
• Whiplash
and many more.

Recent studies show that Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) can assist in clearing metabolic by-products from the brain, making it a valuable approach for brain injury support.

About 40% of my clients live with Lipoedema.

I hear their struggles, support them, and treat them with MLD and other therapies — but their personal stories always remain private within my clinic room.

Lipoedema can feel incredibly overwhelming, and that’s why connecting with the Lipoedema community is so important. Sharing experiences helps people feel seen, supported, and understood.

Here, Ashley — one of my long-term clients — opens up on this podcast about her Lipoedema journey. She talks about the progression of her condition, the emotions she navigated, her surgery, the preparation involved, and so much more.

Please have a listen and feel connected. 💛

Here comes the summery pink flower season💓

I’ve been back at the clinic after my Japan trip and I’m going strong.

I am not taking much time off this festive season like my usual year because I have already had my long holiday in Oct/Nov.

There are some spots available in December.

Online bookings;

See you soon😊

Some people have noticed that my October schedule is all gone.

It’s because I’m fully booked next two weeks, and after that, I am taking a break for 3 weeks from middle of October.

I will be back at the clinic on Monday the 10th of November.
Still lots of available spots in Nov.

I apologise for the inconvenience😔

I won’t be taking much breaks around Christmas this year, instead👍🏼

16/09/2025

I often get cancellations in the late spots, 4:50pm and 6pm recently.

For example, 6pm spots both on Wednesday and Thursday
are available this week.

Please keep an eye on those latest spots online

Across the world, people are living longer than ever before. By 2030, one in six people will be over the age of 60, and by 2050 the number of adults over 80 will triple to 426 million. While longevity is something to celebrate, it also brings challenges. MLD is well know for its benefits in managing...

Recently, I’ve been having more clients/patients with Long Covid, POTS, TOS, MCAS and etc.

Manual Lymph Drainage has more potential to contribute to your well-being, not only fluid reduction.

【two years】

Everyone knows that this year is a big transitional year.
I certainly have been experiencing it.
I knew we had been neglecting each other in this constantly changing time , but I didn’t realised it had been more than two years since our last catch-up!!

I had a nice breakfast catch-up with my cross-occupation yet working-towards-same-purpose therapist friend at a cafe in a cold and drizzly morning🧡

She is far away from judgement.

Therefore, I always feel comfortable with her.

She’s a great interatcial stimulant.

We both have engaged into our study and clinical days for improving chronically affected people’s health by making the lymphatic system working better by our services.

New discoveries and studies in lymphatic system keep springing up.
I have been working in such an exciting industry. More and more people, including medical professions, have slowly been realising about the role of lymphatic system and what MLD (manual lymph drainage) can do for people’s well-being not only reducing excess fluid.

This is my passion along side of Kendo.
Can I keep both at the same time?

I believe so!!!!

We will have another catch-up sooner rather than two year later😆

Most people think of lipedema as a condition that only affects women, but new research is proving otherwise.

A recent study from Brazil followed five men diagnosed with lipedema, all showing the same hallmark signs seen in women: symmetrical fat accumulation in the legs, sparing of the feet, pain, and easy bruising. Many had endocrine disorders, and one tested positive for HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 - markers linked to gluten sensitivity.

With targeted diet changes, low-impact exercise, and in some cases medication, every patient saw improvements in just a few weeks. This is powerful evidence that lipedema in men is real, underdiagnosed, and treatable.
