MLD & MPS Therapy – Because Your Body Deserves More Than Just the Basics
You just had surgery or you’re planning to. Whether it’s a major procedure or a minor one, you want the best possible results, right? We get it. You wouldn’t spend $80,000 on a luxury car and fill it with regular unleaded gas while tearing it up over Michigan’s infamous potholes. So why would you drop thousands on surgery to feel and look better, and then skimp on post-op care? That’s dumb. (Sorry, not sorry.)
Enter Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD).
The earlier you start MLD after surgery, the better. It helps reduce swelling, promotes faster healing, and improves your body’s ability to flush out the gunk that doesn’t belong (aka inflammation, excess fluids, and the dreaded post-surgery puffiness). If you’ve got surgery on the calendar, book your MLD sessions as soon as you schedule your procedure. Think of it as the premium fuel for your recovery—because that’s exactly what it is.
Style and training matters too! At Michigan Massage and Wellness we perform the Vodder Method of Manual Lymphatic Drainage. This is a very light touch therapy that takes a more medical/clinical approach than some of the Brazilian “lymphatic massage” videos you’ve seen on the socials. It’s not body contouring and it is definitely NOT incisional drainage.
Haven’t Had Surgery? MLD Still Works Wonders for You.
Not all benefits are surgery-related. Manual Lymphatic Drainage isn’t just for post-op recovery—it’s also great for everyday health and wellness. If you’re constantly battling conditions like fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, or just dealing with that constant feeling of heaviness or fatigue, MLD can give your body the reset it needs. It’s a gentle yet effective way to improve circulation, boost your immune system, and help with chronic pain by encouraging lymph flow and detoxification.
MPS Therapy: The Perfect Complement to MLD (but equally perfect on its own)
If you’re dealing with chronic pain, stress, or emotional tension that just won’t seem to budge, our MPS (Microcurrent Point Stimulation) Therapy is the perfect complement to your recovery plan. This therapy uses a combination of microcurrent and acupuncture points to stimulate your body’s natural healing process, relieving pain, reducing inflammation, and balancing your nervous system. Whether you’ve got a recent injury or you’re just working through life’s everyday stressors, MPS can accelerate recovery and help you feel like your best self.
Why Choose MLD & MPS Therapy?
Faster Healing: Helps post-surgery swelling go down, speeds up recovery, and supports the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
Pain Relief: MLD and MPS are both incredibly effective in reducing chronic pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
Boosts Immune Function: Both therapies encourage lymphatic flow, helping your immune system function at its best.
Non-invasive: Both treatments are gentle, natural, and non-invasive, without the side effects of medications.
Chronic Conditions: MLD is particularly beneficial for those with conditions like fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and chronic fatigue.
Investing in your health and recovery isn’t a luxury—it’s an essential part of feeling and functioning your best. Don’t skip out on the post-op care or the self-care that could make all the difference. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, struggling with a chronic condition, or just want to breathe easier, Manual Lymphatic Drainage and MPS Therapy can help. Book your session today and start feeling better, faster.
