Our Lymphatic Prenatal Massages are a special type of treatment that is specifically designed for expectant mothers. During pregnancy, the body undergoes many changes, including weight gain, hormonal shifts, and an increase in blood volume. These changes can lead to swelling, or edema, which can cause discomfort and even pain. Additionally, the extra weight and pressure on the body can cause poor circulation, leading to fatigue and other issues.

Service overview

The Lymphatic Prenatal Massage is a safe prenatal massage technique designed to alleviate these issues and promote overall well-being for both the mother and the developing baby. The massage uses a combination of gentle pressure and rhythmic movements to stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing excess fluid and waste from the body.

What to expect

Reduce Swelling

One of the main benefits of the Prenatal Drainage Lymphatic Massage is the ability to reduce edema, or swelling, which is common during pregnancy. Swelling can occur in the feet, legs, hands, and face, and can cause discomfort and pain. By stimulating the lymphatic system, prenatal drainage massages help to remove excess fluid from the body, reducing swelling and improving comfort. In addition to reducing swelling, prenatal drainage massages can also improve circulation. As the massage therapist applies gentle pressure to the body, blood flow is increased, bringing fresh oxygen and nutrients to the cells. This can help to alleviate fatigue and improve overall energy levels.

Reduce Swelling + Pain

This type of massage helps reduce swelling, improve circulation, boost the immune system and alleviate the back pain. The lymphatic system is complex network of vessels, tissues, and organs that play a crucial role in maintaining the body’s fluid balance and immunity. It is responsible for collecting excess fluid and waste products from the body’s tissues and returning them to the bloodstream.

Benefits

Defend Body Against Disease + Infection

The lymphatic system also helps to defend the body against infections and diseases by producing and transporting white blood cells, antibodies, and other immune cells throughout the body. The lymphatic system includes lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, the spleen, thymus, tonsils, and adenoids, among other structures.

It is a vital component of the body’s immune and circulatory systems, especially for expecting mothers. Before acknowledging the benefits of this treatment, we must first look at how the body changes when it is growing a baby. As the baby develops, mothers-to-be likely experience normal weight gain which can cause swelling and make it less comfortable to move around.

Beneficial for Baby

Prenatal drainage massages can also be beneficial for the developing baby. As the massage therapist works to stimulate the lymphatic system and improve circulation, the developing baby receives more oxygen and nutrients just as the mother does, promoting healthy growth and development.

Why it matters

The lymphatic system plays a key role in the body's immune system, eliminating toxins, excess fluids, and waste from the body. In order for the lymphatic system to work, there needs to be natural stimulation for lymph nodes and vessels (which carry waste) to drain properly. It’s important to move the waste away from the tissues and back towards the heart to improve circulation, reduce swelling and to strengthen the immune system. Our lymphatic massages encourage lymph flow, promoting detoxification and relaxation.

What is the lymphatic system?

As these massages target the lymphatic system, we should first understand what it is and how this massage can benefit our body. The lymphatic system is a complex network of vessels and organs that plays a vital role in maintaining the body’s fluid balance and immune system. It collects excess fluid, waste materials, and other debris from tissues throughout the body, and transports them to the lymph nodes where they can be filtered and eliminated. In other words, it plays a critical role in defending the body against infection and disease by producing and circulating immune cells.

“This is the real deal. I've been working through a Stage 2 breast cancer diagnosis since July 2023, with five months of chemo and multiple surgeries since then--all of which caused water retention and toxins to build up in the body. After my last surgery, I gained 5+ pounds of water weight overnight due to the body's response to injury/trauma. After being cleared by my doctor, the therapist worked her magic and was able to restore my body from head to toe. There are a lot of services / supplements out there that promise this and that and the other thing...skip 'em. This massage is where it's at. Service: body and face lymphatic drainage massage.”

"I took my husband for his very first lymphatic massage yesterday and it did not disappoint one bit!!! He was sooooo relaxed. He said it was the best massage ever! He got in the car and immediately called his brothers bragging and ranting about his wonderful experience. Of course the spa rooms are pristine and so adorable. The customer service is top notch from start to finish. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a service that is just as relaxing as it is necessary for the health of your body!!!”

"I recently visited the Brazilian Lymph Spa in Chicago, and my experience was nothing short of phenomenal! From the moment I walked in, the serene and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for what turned out to be an incredibly rejuvenating session. I opted for a lymphatic body and facial massage, and also decided to try cupping on my back. The results have been absolutely astounding. Immediately after the session, I felt a noticeable difference—my body felt lighter, and my face had a refreshed, glowing appearance."

"It’s impeccably clean, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything needed to provide a top-tier spa experience. The staff are all professional, friendly, and dedicated to ensuring that every client leaves feeling their absolute best. I highly recommend the Brazilian Lymph Spa to anyone looking to enhance their wellness and beauty. Whether you're new to lymphatic drainage and cupping or a seasoned pro, you will be in excellent hands. Be sure to ask for Anet—you won’t be disappointed. I am already looking forward to my next visit!”
