Service Overview
Feeling heavy, puffy, or like your body needs a gentle reset?
Our Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a light, rhythmic full-body treatment designed to encourage the natural movement of lymphatic fluid throughout the body.
Unlike Deep Tissue Massage, this treatment does not rely on strong pressure. The lymphatic system responds to gentle, precise movements, so your therapist uses the hands to perform slow, repetitive techniques designed to support natural lymphatic flow.
The result is a calming treatment that can leave your body feeling lighter, refreshed, and less heavy.
Gentle by Design
More pressure does not mean better results with lymphatic drainage.
This massage uses light, controlled, rhythmic movements rather than deep muscular pressure. Your therapist follows gentle pathways throughout the body while maintaining a relaxing, consistent pace.
If you're looking for strong pressure or deep work on muscular knots, we recommend choosing our Deep Tissue Massage instead.
What We Do
Your Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a full-body treatment, but it can be customized based on your needs and preferences.
You may request additional focus on areas such as:
Legs
Arms
Abdomen
Back
Feet
Other areas where you feel heaviness or puffiness
Your therapist will customize the session while maintaining the gentle techniques appropriate for lymphatic massage.
Why Lymphatic Drainage?
The lymphatic system plays an important role in moving fluid through the body. Unlike blood circulation, it doesn't have a heart-like pump driving that movement.
Gentle manual techniques are used to encourage lymphatic flow and support the body's natural fluid movement.
Who Is It For?
This treatment may be ideal for guests who:
Feel heavy or puffy
Experience mild fluid retention
Prefer gentle massage
Want to support lymphatic flow
Want a relaxing full-body treatment
Want extra focus on specific areas
Want a wellness-focused massage without deep pressure
Important: Not for Post-Surgery Care
Cheeva Som Retreat does not provide post-surgical lymphatic drainage or post-operative massage.
If you've recently had surgery or a cosmetic procedure, please follow your surgeon's recommendations and seek a qualified post-operative care provider.
Our Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage is offered as a general wellness treatment for non-post-surgical guests.
