Lymphatic Drainage Add-Ons
Customize your experience with our add-ons to enhance circulation, release tension, and further rejuvenation.

Gua Sha
A natural therapy based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Gua Sha stimulates circulation, alleviates musculoskeletal tension/pain, and can be used to stimulate specific acupressure points, depending on your individual needs.
Cupping
Cupping stimulates circulation, the flow of qi, and may relieve muscle tension. Cupping also helps decompress stuck connective tissue, thus easing tension and associated discomfort.
All add-ons include warming of the tissue with moderate pressure and final effleurage to integrate the work. These sessions are best booked as add-ons to manual lymphatic drainage sessions.
If cost is a barrier to receiving bodywork treatment, limited trade opportunities may be available if the arrangement is mutually beneficial. Contact us to learn more.
Coming Soon
Starting in August 2025, our practitioner Destiny will be a certified Lymphedema Therapist. You can receive specialized care to help manage swelling and improve your mobility. Equipped with expert techniques, we will support your healing journey.

Unique Approach
“I started working with Destiny because I found her approach to skincare and wellness unique from anyone I have gone to. I appreciate that she has a background in energy work, massage, craniosacral therapy and is passionate about holistic skincare. I go to her monthly for a lymphatic drainage massage and I always feel and look lighter after a session.
She recently recommended the Glo2Facial for my skin and I couldn’t believe how effective it was. The results were instant and it was by far the best facial I have received. Destiny’s passion and knowledge for skincare shines and I always feel so cared for when receiving a service from her. She’s intentional about her practice and truly loves helping individuals feel and look better.”

High Quality
“Destiny is amazing. I have been dealing [with] terrible maskne and congestion as well as bad experiences with my skin. Stepping into a signature facial with Destiny really gave me a good experience with my skin for the first time in a long time. She is very welcoming and all her products are clean beauty of high quality. After just 1 facial my skin looks miraculously better. She is very knowledgeable and is there to help you through your energy and skincare journey. Her massage was the best!!”

Firmer Glowing Skin
“I had a 90 minute Glo2Facial with Destiny. It’s an advanced med spa treatment that has patented oxygen technology along with light ultrasound to boost collagen production and improve product absorption. She also did extractions, gua sha, and light facial cupping. The serums she used with the ultrasound helped brighten, plump, tighten my face.
The next day my face was still glowing and my skin was much firmer. My skin was also brighter and my creams and makeup went on much better. I would highly recommend.”– HISAKO

Grounding & Healing
“Excellent craniosacral therapy work! I feel like this is just what my whole body and mind needed. Not only am I feeling much more grounded, relaxed and calm, but before my session, I had elbow pain that persisted for 2 months and was causing me a lot of trouble. It’s one day after my session and my elbow is feeling much better, which is absolutely priceless!”

Skilled Healer
“Destiny is a skilled healer. I made a craniosacral therapy appointment, specifically for mouth work. After her treatment I felt amazing. The session helped my jaw pain (TMJ), neck tightness, and it released tension in parts of my mouth that I didn't know I had - like the roof of my mouth. I'm no stranger to bodywork - even have some schooling in it - so I can confidently say that Destiny is well educated in craniosacral therapy mouth and jaw work.”

Significant Pain Relief
“I received two sessions of cranialsacral therapy from Destiny for TMJ. Both sessions were extremely relaxing and I experienced significant relief in my pain symptoms.
Destiny takes the time to explain what she is going to do and makes sure you are comfortable with all the techniques. She is very knowledgeable in anatomy and I am looking forward to more appointments with her for continued relief! I highly recommend Destiny.”

Tightness Melted Away
“I went to Destiny for a deep tissue massage as I had neglected self care for a while, and my shoulders had become as stiff as bricks. She worked on the right side first, and as she massaged me I could feel my left side starting to relax as well. After about 15 minutes I was dozing off. As my muscles continued to soften she did cupping on the area and the tightness continued to melt away. She also targeted my head and and the back of my neck. I felt so much lighter after the treatment and had a great night of continued sleep. I felt refreshed the next day. I highly recommend her!!!”

Feeling Like a New Person
“I got a one hour body massage by Destiny as a gift. I hadn’t had a massage in years and was blown away by her intuitive touch and knowledgeable body work. I left the massage feeling like a new person. I also feel like I released a lot emotionally. Highly recommend her for YOU or someone special you know. Next time I’m booking 2 hours. One is just not enough. Oh! She has a heated table pad too. I felt warm the entire time.”

Lymphatic Drainage FAQ
-
The session requires the client to be fully disrobed, but the body will remain draped with a sheet throughout the session, with only areas exposed receiving treatment.
-
The Dr. Vodder method of lymphatic drainage is incredibly gentle and non-invasive. You should not experience any discomfort. Most clients find the experience deeply relaxing, soothing, and meditative.
-
We ask that you do not eat at least 1.5 hours before the session as every session includes abdominal work and deep diaphragmatic breathing. Please do your best to use the bathroom before the session and drink plenty of water following treatment. Avoid heavy meals or caffeine within a couple of hours before your treatment. Avoid alcohol for at least 12 hours, ideally 24 hours before your treatment.
-
You may feel a sense of lightness, relaxation, and increased energy. Some clients notice more frequent urination and elimination as the body eliminates excess fluids and supports enhanced digestive functions. Overall, if you can take it easy after your treatment, that will help your body continue cleaning itself out in the hours and evening after your session.
-
For lymphatic drainage sessions, it is strongly advised to book a 90-minute session to receive a thorough treatment that doesn’t feel rushed. If you are truly constrained with time, 75 minutes still allows for meaningful work. A 60-minute session may work for those who aren’t seeking full-body and face work and just want to target specific areas or support post-surgery healing.
-
For general health and vitality, monthly or weekly sessions are recommended for basic maintenance. If you’re experiencing any of the indications mentioned above, weekly sessions are optimal to alleviate symptoms and accelerate healing. Post-surgical clients may require multiple sessions over several weeks for optimal results. During your first appointment, we will provide a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.
