FAQ
What is a lymphatic therapist?
A lymphatic therapist is basically a massage therapist whose specially trained in manual lymphatic drainage. At The Body Temple Spa, our therapists are certified in lymphatic drainage (CLDT) and work with doctors, surgeons, and clients who need help with there lymphatic system. We're not just doing regular massage we're using specific, gentle techniques to help your bodys drainage system work better. Think of us as plumbers for your lymphatic system, but way more relaxing!
Is lymphatic drainage worth the cost?
Honestly? If your dealing with swelling after surgery, lymphedema, or chronic puffiness, its absolutely worth it. We've seen clients at our Athens location who tried everything else first and wished they'd started with lymphatic work sooner. For general wellness, it depends on your budget and how you feel after. Most people find the reduced bloating, better sleep, and energy boost make it worth it. Just don't expect overnight miracles its more of a "feel gradually better" situation.
Can I do my own lymphatic drainage?
You can do some basic self-lymphatic drainage at home there are techniques for your face, arms, and legs that work pretty good. But heres the thing: you can't reach your back, and honestly, a trained therapist knows exactly where your lymph nodes are and how much pressure to use. At The Body Temple, we teach clients some self-care techniques to do between sessions, but the professional treatments are way more thorough and effective.
What is the best drink for lymphatic drainage?
Water, water, water seriously, thats it. Lemon water is great too because it helps your liver. Green tea has some lymphatic benefits, but honestly, plain old water is your best friend. After sessions at our spa, we always tell clients to drink way more water then they think they need. Skip the fancy "detox" drinks your kidneys and lymphatic system just need good old hydration to do there job properly.
How do I know if my lymphatic system is clogged?
You'll usually feel puffy, tired, and just "blah" overall. Common signs are swelling in your hands/feet, feeling stiff in the morning, getting sick alot, or having skin issues. Some people say they feel heavy or like there body isn't draining right. At The Body Temple, clients often come in saying they just don't feel like themselves. If your dealing with chronic puffiness or slow healing, thats usually a good sign your lymphatic system needs some help.
How much is an hour of lymphatic drainage?
Pricing varies depending on where you are and the therapists experience. In the Athens area, expect to pay more then a regular massage since it requires special training. At The Body Temple Spa, our lymphatic drainage sessions are $65 for 30 minutes and $130 for 60 minutes.
We offer different packages depending on weather its for wellness, after surgery, or medical needs, and we also work with insurance for medical cases which can really help with the cost.
