Happy St. Patrick’s Day Everyone! 🍀🌈 PonyGirl & I walked to the Irish Hunger Memorial then popped into to fuel up on some green matcha 🍵 for the busy day ahead. To pastry or not to pastry, that is the question! 🥰🦄☔️🌈

This patient came to me 2 weeks after having liposuction for fat grafting from her outer thighs and hips for the final step of breast reconstruction and was dealing with ecchymosis (large areas of bruising/bleeding under the skin) with swelling, pain and limited mobility despite using compression garments, elevating, moving and massaging her legs at home. The swelling and pain made walking difficult, and even finding a comfortable position at rest was a challenge.

IMPORTANT: I communicated with her surgery team PRIOR to seeing her and got clearance for therapy following an ultrasound to rule out a clotting or bleeding issue.

After just one lymphatic therapy session utilizing multiple modalities and hands-on techniques — manual soft tissue mobility, manual lymphatic drainage followed by compression — there was a visible reduction in bruising, swelling and tenderness. The same-day improvement not only eased discomfort but also helped restore movement, making a significant difference in recovery.

This was session 1 of 6 total to fully clear swelling, pain and bruising. All visits began and ended with MLD, my treatment followed and utilized lymphatic pathways, fluid was always moved towards healthy lymphatics
Lymphatic kinesio taping, compression garments and multi layer compression bandaging were alternated or combined based on progression.
