Gentle Lymphatic Drainage Therapy in Glenview, IL

Supporting Your Body's Natural Healing

What to Expect During Your Lymphatic Drainage Session

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialized form of physical therapy that helps your body reduce swelling and improve its natural detoxification process. At Physical Wellness Lab, we provide this delicate, yet highly effective, therapy to patients all across Chicago’s North Shore, in a comfortable and private setting. Our experienced local therapist understands the profound impact that conditions like lymphedema, chronic swelling, or post-surgical recovery can have on your daily life.

The lymphatic system plays a vital role in removing waste and excess fluid from your body. When this system isn’t functioning optimally, it can lead to swelling, discomfort, and a feeling of heaviness. Our expert therapist uses light, rhythmic movements to gently guide lymphatic fluid out of affected areas. This non-invasive, hands-on technique is not like a traditional massage; it's a specific, therapeutic approach designed to promote healing and comfort.



We believe in a one-on-one approach, where you receive the full attention of a skilled professional. Your sessions will take place in a peaceful environment, allowing you to relax and focus on your healing. Our goal is to empower you with the tools and understanding you need to manage your condition and feel your best. Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing lymphedema, or simply seeking a way to reduce swelling, our compassionate team is here to help you feel lighter and more comfortable.
