Massage Therapy Center has been a trusted partner of local hospitals to provide lymphatic massages to their cancer patients. We have four experienced lymphatic massage therapists: Kristi, Jiong, Julie, and Loan. 

Signs you received a REAL lymphatic massage

• You needed to urinate more after your session
• The pressure was very light (lighter than a regular massage)
• You felt very relaxed, even though the massage was light
• Movements were slow, repetitive, and rhythmic
• You felt less bloated or less swollen, not sore
• It did not feel like muscle work

Signs you received a FAKE “lymphatic” massage

• It felt like a regular massage, just lighter
• Therapist worked mainly on muscles (back, shoulders, knots)
• Pressure was deep, painful, or intense
• No focus on lymph node areas (neck, armpit, etc.)
• Movements felt random, not structured
• Therapist claimed it will “burn fat” or cause weight loss
• You left feeling sore after
• your therapist uses a lot of oil and their hands are gliding smoothly over your skin
