Riverstone Chiropractic Offers New Service: Lymphatic Drainage Massage in Oakland CA

    OAKLAND, CA, December 01, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Riverstone Chiropractic today announced lymphatic drainage massage, a new service.

This type of manual therapy is a very gentle way to decrease swelling post surgery (top surgery or otherwise) or post injury.

Lymphatic drainage massage aka manual lymphatic drainage, is used to help the body return excess or stagnating fluid back to the heart. Swelling and inflammation are normal results of the post-surgical or post-injury process, but when there is too much of it for too long, it can result in pain, tightness, or tenderness.

The lymphatic system is the channels and ducts in the body that collect and return fluid to the heart. When there is excess or stagnating fluid in the body, that shows up as swelling. We see this pattern after injuries and surgeries typically, and if we don't perform any lymph drainage work to clear that fluid, the swelling can linger longer than it needs to, resulting in ongoing swelling, tightness, and pain.
