Why choose specialist post-op therapy

The first weeks after surgery can feel overwhelming.
​
Whether you’re recovering from cosmetic surgery such as liposuction, tummy tuck, breast surgery or facelift, or from lymph-sparing liposuction for lipoedema, swelling, tightness and pressure can make recovery physically and emotionally challenging.
​
I’ve been through major surgery and recovery myself, so I understand how vulnerable this stage can feel.
​
At Lymphara Clinic I provide specialist post-operative recovery care tailored to your procedure and stage of healing. Treatment may include advanced post-operative Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), compression guidance, lymphatic k-taping, fibrosis support and scar-focused therapy where appropriate.


"Having cosmetic surgery myself showed me how vital expert, compassionate care is. You deserve to heal well and feel supported every step of the way."

Lymphatic K-taping
Strategic taping techniques that encourage lymphatic drainage and support healing in areas where swelling tends to linger.

Fibrosis & Scar Support
Specialist techniques to help soften firm areas, support scar tissue healing and improve tissue mobility as swelling settles after surgery.

Clinically supported recovery care
Most post-operative healing progresses normally.
​
However, recovery can sometimes raise questions around wound healing, fluid build-up or whether something is progressing as expected.
​
As part of providing safe and well-supported care, Lymphara Clinic works alongside an experienced prescribing district nurse who specialises in wound care and post-surgical healing.
​
If medical assessment is needed during recovery, a nurse review can be arranged at the clinic. This ensures patients can access appropriate clinical support quickly while keeping their surgeon informed if required.

"I felt completely overwhelmed after my surgery, until I found Rachel. Her treatments helped so much with the swelling and she made everything feel manageable."
