Prep and Aftercare for Acupuncture, Bodywork, and Lymph Therapies:

Preparation for a Lymph Therapy, Acupuncture, or any Bodywork would include a good diet for 2 to 4 days prior to the session. This will include drinking a lot of water and fresh juices. Also, it would be preferable to eat lightly on the day of the session. This does not mean eat less, but instead eat fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. Avoid high fat, fried, processed, oily, and overcooked foods.

When coming to a session, please bring or wear loose thin cotton clothing or clothing made of a natural fiber (such as a loose T-shirt and loose cotton pants). Avoid slippery fabrics like silk; sweat pants are too thick.

After the session, the diet should be similar for 24 to 48 hrs and then increased gradually as needed.
