Lymphatic Drainage Massage at Healing Spa in Sherman Oaks, CA
Lymphatic drainage is the lightest style on our menu. The strokes are slow, rhythmic, and repeated, with very little pressure. Guests usually choose it when firmer massage feels like too much and they want something quiet and gentle.
What lymphatic drainage massage is
This technique uses light, sweeping strokes applied in a consistent direction and rhythm across the skin rather than deep muscle pressure. The session is calm and steady from start to finish.
What to expect
- Pressure stays light throughout — noticeably gentler than Swedish massage.
- Strokes are slow and repetitive, following a consistent rhythm.
- Sessions are quiet and unhurried, and you can rest the whole time.
- Let your therapist know if you would like even lighter contact.
Who tends to book it

- Guests looking for something gentler than a standard relaxation massage
