Lymphatic drainage in Paris, at the studio or at home

One session is enough to feel the difference, rarely enough to make it last. Count on five to decongest the tissues for the long term, ten for remodelling work that holds. We decide together after the first session.

Because the Signature Session is a complete drainage protocol, for the whole body. The price covers the touch of a practitioner certified in the Renata França method, a certification granted after assessment in the official training; a body assessment and a reading of your areas of retention; at the studio, a session you personalise the day before; the full 60 minute protocol, from décolleté to ankles; the professional table, in place at the studio or set up at your home; linen and consumables renewed for every session; personalised self-drainage and lifestyle advice; and a confirmation of your slot the day before.

Yes. The day before your Signature Session at the studio, I send you a link by text message: in one minute, you personalise your session, from the pressure to the areas to focus on, from the music to the scent of the oil. You can change your mind until the time of the appointment.

No. Lymphatic drainage works through rhythmic pressure and deep manoeuvres, never through force. Congested areas can be tender at the start of a course: I adjust the intensity as we go, and you tell me at any point what feels comfortable.

Yes. Phlebitis or thrombosis, heart or kidney failure, cancer under treatment, acute infection and fever all rule the session out. Pregnancy, recent surgery and any ongoing treatment require your doctor’s prior opinion. These treatments are wellbeing care and never replace medical advice.

At home, almost nothing: a clear space of about six square metres, a power socket, and a shower afterwards if you would like one. I bring the table, the linen, the oils and the single-use protections; setting up takes five minutes. At the studio, there is nothing to prepare: everything is waiting for you.

Most clients report a feeling of lightness by the end of the first session. On the silhouette, changes are usually observed from the third onwards. Drinking plenty of water in the following twenty-four hours noticeably extends the effect.

Online, the session or the course is paid in full when booking, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. In person, by card only; I take neither cash nor bank transfers, and the Metamorphosis Course can be paid in three interest-free instalments. A session can be moved or cancelled free of charge up to twenty-four hours ahead; after that, it remains payable.

Within a course, one session a week is the most common rhythm: it gives the tissues time to drain and keeps momentum from one session to the next. We then adjust together; some courses start closer together, then spread out.

The Vodder method is classic lymphatic drainage, slow and very gentle, of medical origin. Brazilian methods, the best known being Renata França’s, work with more rhythmic and deeper pressure, a faster felt effect and a remodelling dimension. My protocol belongs to that second family: certified in the Renata França method, I adjust the protocol to each body type.

During pregnancy, only from the second trimester and with the agreement of your doctor or midwife; the manoeuvres are then gentler and the position adapted. After giving birth, many women report lighter legs and a lighter stomach; we wait for the go-ahead of the postnatal check-up before starting.
