If you’re looking for Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) in Eugene, Oregon, you’ve come to the right place.
Hannah Torres Massage Therapy provides gentle, evidence-informed Manual Lymphatic Drainage to support your body’s natural healing process. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing swelling, or simply looking to improve lymphatic circulation, each session is tailored to your unique needs and comfort.
My goal is to create a calm, supportive space where you can relax while your body receives the care it needs to heal.
What Is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?
a light, rhythmic hands-on technique designed to encourage the movement of lymph fluid throughout the body. Unlike traditional massage, MLD uses slow, gentle strokes that work with the lymphatic system rather than the muscles.
This specialized therapy may help:
Reduce swelling and fluid retention
Support healing after surgery
Promote healthy lymphatic circulation
Ease feelings of heaviness or congestion
Encourage relaxation and nervous system regulation
Post-Operative Recovery Care
Recovering from surgery can feel overwhelming, and every stage of healing matters.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is commonly incorporated into recovery plans following procedures such as:
Cosmetic and plastic surgery
Liposuction
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
Mommy Makeover
BBL
Breast surgery
Facelift or neck procedures
Orthopedic surgery, when recommended by your healthcare provider
During your session, treatments are always adapted to your stage of healing, your surgeon’s instructions, and your comfort level.
Post-operative care may help:
Reduce swelling
Improve comfort
Support healthy tissue healing
Encourage healthy lymph flow
Help you feel more comfortable throughout recovery
Please note: Manual Lymphatic Drainage is not a replacement for medical care. I work within my scope of practice and encourage all clients to follow their surgeon’s recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I start Manual Lymphatic Drainage after surgery?
The timing varies depending on the procedure and your surgeon’s recommendations. Always obtain medical clearance before beginning treatment.
Does Manual Lymphatic Drainage hurt?
No. MLD is extremely gentle and should never feel like deep tissue massage. Most clients find it deeply relaxing.
How many sessions will I need?
Every recovery is different. Some clients benefit from a short series of treatments during the early healing process, while others choose ongoing care to support lymphatic health.
Is Manual Lymphatic Drainage only for surgery?
Not at all. MLD may also benefit people experiencing swelling, fluid retention, or those seeking gentle support for healthy lymphatic function.
