Zen on The Run offers post-operative massage and lymphatic drainage services for women following BBL, Lipo-surgical procedures and more. We require that you consult with your post-op care team (surgeon/nurses) to get a written recommendation for post-op massage. We currently offer 60 minute post operative massage sessions.  Post-operative massage services are performed in-home or in-office and are available to be booked online. 

 

Doctor's Note Required:

What we're looking for from your Doctor/Care team is a recommendation of medical necessity for post-op massage services, with recommendations of area(s) that need massage, and recommended frequency and length of service(s)

Your care team may send your Doctor's note to: Samantha Young, LMT at hello@zenrva.com 

 

Post-Operative Massages are designed to help improve circulation of blood and lymph giving increased oxygen to the body's tissues and organs which helps to reduce swelling, and decrease the buildup of scar tissue helping the body heal faster.

 

We do not and will not drain fluids outside of the body from incisions or attempt to re-open incisions to drain fluids for any reason.

 

In addition to lymphatic drainage massage techniques: we may do dynamic cupping to drain lymph in certain areas, and we may use a gua sha (scraping) tool to break up adhesions, use wood therapy tools for lymphatic drainage, use infrared light therapy to reduce swelling, and perform ultrasonic cavitation and radio frequency as directed your by care team. Lymphatic drainage is typically a lighter form of massage therapy. Post-op sessions massage sessions are not meant to be deep tissue sessions. We will do sessions according to what has been written and recommended by your Doctor/Care Tea. We only use a cavitation machine for post-op massage when recommended by your care team.
