How Post-Surgical Massage Works
Post Surgical Massage uses gentle, targeted manual techniques designed for the post-operative setting. Therapists work within surgical restrictions to encourage movement of excess fluid, relieve local tension, and support comfort. Techniques and pressure are chosen to respect incision sites and current symptoms rather than applying general deep-tissue methods.
Each session begins with a focused intake of your surgical history and current symptoms so the treatment is tailored to your needs. Therapists follow surgeon instructions and client tolerance, adapting positions and hand placement. Many local clients who commute along Metcalf/US-69 value flexible scheduling, including evenings and weekends for these appointments.
What To Expect During Recovery
Clients commonly notice reduced tightness and less fluid-related firmness after treatments, though temporary soreness or fatigue can also occur. Massage is intended to ease discomfort and encourage healthy healing patterns, not to replace medical follow-up. Any new redness, fever, or increased pain should be reported to your surgeon immediately.
How quickly you feel changes depends on the type of surgery, how soon after the operation treatment begins, and your overall healing response. Therapists will discuss realistic expectations and monitor changes over sessions, adjusting techniques based on swelling, scar sensitivity, and your medical guidance.
Preparing For Your Post-Surgical Massage
Bring any relevant surgical notes or aftercare instructions, a list of current medications, and the name of your surgeon so therapists can align with medical guidance. Wear comfortable, loose clothing for easy access to the treatment area and arrive prepared to describe your incision, drains, or any mobility restrictions you have.
The standard listed price for this service is $90.
