"Nurturing Recovery Through Post-Operative Massage

In the aftermath of surgery, the body navigates through a phase of healing, tending to joints, muscles, and tissues that have encountered trauma. As a catalyst for this recovery journey, post-operative massage steps in, working to enhance and expedite the healing process.

The essence of post-operative massage lies in its ability to stimulate blood and lymphatic fluid circulation across the body. This orchestrated movement serves as a conduit for enhanced oxygenation of the body's intricate tapestry of tissues and organs. The result? Swelling and stiffness recede, allowing for a smoother recuperation.

Beyond the physical realm, post-operative massage is a steadfast companion for patients during their healing voyage. It offers a reassuring touch that accelerates healing and imparts a sense of support. This integration of massage therapy doesn't solely benefit the body; it extends its tender touch to the psyche as well, providing solace and compassion during the recovery phase.

Experience the transformative influence of post-operative massage, a testament to the body's remarkable resilience and the power of healing touch."

Benefits of Therapeutic Massage

See some common questions and answers below.

  • Quicker recovery time

    Massage speeds up the overall healing process by helping to eliminate the buildup of toxins that occur after plastic surgery and increasing the circulation of blood to the area that brings nutrients to both the skin and its underlying layers of tissue. By encouraging a healthier blood flow, massage can help to return nourishment and flexibility to the affected area. Massage therapy also helps build up the immune system, thus helping to speed up the overall healing process.

  • Eases pain

    The anticipated pain after surgery may cause anxiety in people having the procedure. For the most part, the doctor will prescribe anti-pain medication for the days immediately following the procedure. Started a few weeks after surgery, massage has been shown to interfere with the pain receptor signals to the brain.

  • Reduces scarring

    Part of the body’s own healing process is to protect an injured site from further harm. This results in an increased production of collagen fibers which, if over produced, form highly visible hypertrophic or keloid scars. Massage therapy done locally on newly healed scar tissue can reduce and soften this buildup of tough fibrous tissue. Collagen will soften using warmth resulting from touch therapies.

  • Post-operative massage

    By accelerating the healing process, these advancements will minimize downtown and patients will return to work and their daily routines quicker, looking and feeling even better than before. Make sure you discuss with your surgeon, any treatment options beforehand. Post-operative massage should not be part of any recovery treatment until you receive clearance from your doctor.
