Post-Operative Lymphatic Drainage & Recovery Program in Edmonton

Edmonton’s Specialized Post-Operative & Medical Lymphatic Clinic

Recovering after surgery, cancer treatment, or medical procedures requires specialized care. At Mobile Massage & Lymphatic Centre, we provide clinically focused lymphatic drainage therapy in Edmonton, supporting patients through post-operative recovery, oncology-related swelling, and chronic lymphatic conditions. Our practice is designed to complement medical and surgical care, not replace it.

We are not a spa or relaxation clinic. Our therapists work within a medical-rehabilitation framework, making our services appropriate for referrals from plastic surgeons, physicians, physiotherapists, nurse practitioners, and oncology teams, including patients associated with major Edmonton cancer programs.

Who This Program Is Designed For

Post-Surgical Recovery Patients

Our post-operative lymphatic drainage program supports recovery following:

1. Liposuction and body contouring procedures

2. Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)

3. BBL and cosmetic surgery

4. Breast surgery (medical or cosmetic)

5. Abdominal and orthopedic procedures

Post-surgical swelling, fluid retention, and tissue congestion can significantly delay healing if not addressed early and appropriately.

Oncology & Medical Referrals

We support individuals experiencing secondary lymphedema related to cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation, or lymph node removal. Our care aligns with conservative lymphatic management principles commonly used in oncology settings and is suitable for patients referred from cancer care programs within Edmonton.

What Makes Mobile Massage & Lymphatic Centre Unique in Edmonton

Unlike clinics that offer lymphatic massage as an add-on service, lymphatic therapy is a core focus of our practice. We work with structured treatment plans rather than isolated sessions, ensuring continuity of care and measurable progress.

Our therapists have advanced training in lymphatic drainage, post-operative protocols, and compression therapy. This allows us to safely manage complex presentations and collaborate with other healthcare providers involved in a patient’s recovery.

Our clinic is an appropriate referral destination for:

1. Plastic and reconstructive surgeons

2. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation clinics

3. Physicians and nurse practitioners

4. Oncology and cancer-care teams

5. Allied health professionals seeking specialized lymphatic support

Our Post-Operative Recovery & Lymphatic Care Program

Program-Based Care (Outcome Focused)

Effective recovery requires consistency. For this reason, we offer structured post-operative recovery programs, not single drop-in sessions. Each program is customized based on the type of surgery, healing phase, and individual lymphatic involvement.

Programs may include:

1. A series of lymphatic drainage treatments

2. Swelling and fibrosis management

3. Compression garment education and guidance

4. Home-care education and precautions

5. Ongoing reassessment and progress monitoring

Expected Benefits of Post-Operative Lymphatic Care

Patients participating in structured lymphatic care commonly experience:

1. Reduced swelling and heaviness

2. Improved comfort and mobility

3. Decreased tissue congestion and firmness

4. A smoother, more supported recovery process

While results vary depending on the procedure and individual health factors, early lymphatic intervention is widely recognized as a valuable component of post-surgical and post-oncology rehabilitation.

H2: Referral-Based & Assessment-Only Entry (Important)

To ensure safety and appropriate care, all post-operative and medical lymphatic clients must begin with an assessment. This allows us to review surgical history, healing stage, and lymphatic involvement before recommending a care plan.

We do not offer one-size-fits-all treatments. Entry into our post-operative program is by assessment only, ensuring care is medically appropriate and aligned with professional standards.

Book a Post-Operative Lymphatic Recovery Assessment

If you are preparing for surgery, within the first few weeks after a surgical procedure, or managing post-operative swelling related to cosmetic, medical, or cancer treatment, the first and most important step is a professional lymphatic recovery assessment.

Call or text Mobile Massage & Lymphatic Centre at 780-978-2264 to book a Post-Operative Lymphatic Recovery Assessment.
Early post-operative booking is strongly recommended, as timely lymphatic care can significantly impact recovery quality.

Following your assessment, an individualized post-operative recovery program will be recommended based on your surgery type, stage of healing, swelling presentation, and clinical goals.
