Specialized Recovery Support by our Registered Massage Therapist, McKayla Hart
At our clinic, we specialize in Post-Operative Lymphatic Massage Therapy to support a smooth and effective recovery after cosmetic and reconstructive procedures.
Our Registered Massage Therapist, McKayla, brings over five years of clinical experience, along with advanced training in the BRAX Method—an evidence-based approach specifically designed for post-surgical healing.
Whether you are recovering from a mommy makeover, C-section, mastectomy, lumpectomy, or a combination of procedures, McKayla provides personalized care tailored to each stage of your recovery journey. Her goal is to help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and promote optimal healing—so you can feel supported every step of the way.
With the BRAX method, each client is involved in a custom recovery plan tailored to their individual needs. Each massage will include a variety of massage therapy techniques, including but not limited to: Manual Lymph Drainage, Fascial Manipulation, General Swedish Massage, Hydrotherapy and Cupping. The techniques used will vary depending on each individuals stage of recovery and tolerance.
During the inital treatment(s), the focus is on restoring a sense of safety within the nervous system and reducing swelling through gentle, non invasive manual lymphatic drainage and petrissage techniques. As recovery progresses, McKayla begins working with scar tissue—encouraging healthy tissue mobility and helping to minimize restrictions.
An important part of McKayla’s treatments includes providing education to her patients on proper homecare; specific to individual needs and monitoring the proper use of compression garments to ensure comfort.
Treatment Timeline
Ideally, McKayla would like to see clients 4-7 days post op for an initial treatment.
Treatments are gentle, comfortable and supportive. We have a variety of positioning supports available at our clinic to ensure patients are comfortable and supported while ensuring the safety of their surgical area.
Treatment frequency varies per patient, however most commonly we see patients weekly for 6-10 weeks post op.
Complimentary phone call consultations can be booked through our online booking portal or send us a message to set one up. This gives McKayla a chance to learn a bit about you, your surgical procedure, answer any questions you may have and set up an appointment for your initial treatment.
