Post-Mastectomy Treatment

After mastectomy surgery, many clients seek assistance from the Ricky Knowles Hair and Wellness Team. Whether your particular case calls for a garment allowing for the comfortable positioning of a post surgical drain or being fitted for a breast prosthesis, our team of certified experts can help you find a customized solution to fit your needs.

If needed, a team member can travel to your hospital room or a private location. Our staff is equipped with the latest technological advances in the area of post surgical treatment and is well versed in the use of materials and garments to help you feel comfortable and confident.

We have several Vodder certified massage therapists on staff who specialize in Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) as well as bandaging for lymphatic fluid build up prevention.

MLD, or Manual Lymphatic Drainage helps your body's lymphatic system to drain and aids in removing wastes, toxins, bacteria and fluid build-up from your body's tissues.

Having an MLD massage can help with the following:

• Lymphedema
• Muscoloskeletal problems
• Increase effectiveness of detox following a dietary detoxification (usually recommended by a Naturopathic doctor)
• Reduce pain signals sent to the brain
• Help post-surgical recovery
• Reduce scar formation
• Decrease general fatigue and "sluggishness"
