Lymphatic Detox Treatments
Treatments to promote lymph flow and reduce excess fluids around the face, eye area, jawline, legs & torso
What is Lymphatic Detoxification?
Using massage, and French lymphatic drainage technology, you can get your lymph moving, flush your system, enhance your skin tone, supercharge your immune system, and help you look slimmer and rejuvenated.
The lymphatic detox can improve overall skin health by promoting lymph flow, removing toxins, and reducing inflammation. Resulting in a refreshed appearance and a relaxed state of being.
Treatments involve biorhythmic lymphatic drainage along the meridians of the body. This includes the application of a specially formulated essential oil emulsion to the skin to facilitate the gliding of the cups along the skin surface.
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in maintaining the health and appearance of our skin. It acts as a drainage system, helping to remove waste, toxins, and excess fluid from the skin. By filtering out impurities in the lymph nodes, this treatment can reduce swelling and inflammation in your entire body.
Common Questions
About Lymphatic Detox Treatments
How long does it take to see results?
Lymphatic drainage and detoxification has an immediate effect. Right after the session, you will see and feel the treatment results. However, the fluid will continue to drain around 24 to 48 hours post-session.
How often should I come for lymphatic detoxification?
4-12 times a year.
What makes your practice unique?
My practice is about creating a sanctuary where women's health is nurtured and elevated to its highest potential. I have been combining Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern wellness techniques for almost 20 years, specializing in acupuncture, lymphatic drainage, and herbal remedies, which has helped hundreds of women achieve vibrant health and natural beauty. This work is about being 100% present. One-on-one, focused attention allows me to understand my patients on a deep level. I only see one patient at a time to reduce every distraction possible to provide the best care. My goal with each treatment is to tailor an approach that suits your current state of being and helps you achieve a state of wellness inside and out.
Do these treatments hurt?
Depending on the patient, this treatment may incorporate acupuncture. That said, I treat my patients how I would like to be treated, so that means needle insertions are very gentle. Can it hurt? Sure, about 1 in 1000 needles I insert are uncomfortable for my clients. The rest of the treatment is done with gentle sliding cups; there can be a small amount of soreness, but it is quite minimal.
Will I feel okay resuming work after a treatment?
Yes, but note that you most likely will feeI very chill.
What should I wear for a treatment?
Loose-fitting clothing is excellent.
Should I eat anything before a treatment?
Yes, a light snack is ideal.

I was very skeptical of the general idea of acupuncture, but honestly, Catherine is amazing and has totally converted me. I have to admit I still do not understand how it works at all, but it definitely works. Highly, highly recommended.
