Post Care For Massage:

What to DO:

Hydrate: Always drink plenty of water throughout the day to support circulation and lymphatic flow.

Compression Garments: Use proper compression if it applies to your maintenance regimen. Consistent wear helps manage swelling and maintain results.

Movement & Activity: Stay active. If your lifestyle is sedentary, incorporate regular movement breaks (e.g., walking, stretching) to stimulate circulation.

Skin Care: If managing skin folds, ensure folds are kept dry and use proper moisturizing techniques to prevent irritation or infection.

What to AVOID:

Skipping Compression: Do not neglect compression wear if prescribed—it’s a vital part of long-term management.

Prolonged Inactivity: Avoid sitting or standing in one position for too long without movement.

Skin Neglect: Don’t ignore changes in your skin. Redness, cracking, or irritation should be addressed promptly with gentle care.
