✨ FAQ Time
→ Lymphatic Drainage with Breathing Conditions

Q: A common question we receive is: Can individuals with breathing conditions safely receive Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)?

A: For someone with a respiratory condition, visiting a hospital lymphedema clinic may be safest. First ask your doctor and have them fax a script that MLD manual lymphatic drainage is safe for you. So, the answer is customized for each individual patient, with careful consideration. MLD can actually support those with breathing challenges by reducing fluid congestion and encouraging gentle diaphragmatic movement. However, each case is unique. NLC does not see patients with AFIB, COPD, emphysema, chronic asthma, shortness of breath or other respiratory issues. Instead, a good resource would be an in-hospital clinic.

At National Lymphatic Centers, LMT CLTs are expertly trained to modify techniques, ensuring lymphatic therapy remains safe, effective manual lymphatic drainage.

✨ FAQ by a CLT
→ MLD Manual Lymphatic Drainage Medical Massage After Surgery

Q. When it comes to post-op recovery, many people call for consults and ask: "How soon can I start my massages after surgery?"

A. The answer depends on your individual healing process and your surgeon’s post-operative protocol. As a general guide, therapy may begin around 5 days after liposuction. For abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), it is often closer to 10 days post-op, depending on healing and clearance. For oncology-related surgeries, such as mastectomy, more rest time may be needed before beginning therapy.

In today’s FAQ, the discussion highlights why timing is unique to each person and why medical clearance is essential. At National Lymphatic Centers, CLT LMTs carefully coordinate care to ensure treatment is safe, effective, and supportive of your recovery. Have your Surgeon fax a script for MLD as well as Post-Op self care notes to 888-302-1911. This way we can learn of your surgeon's particular frequency of visits and more.
