Multimodal post-operative care from a certified specialist
Recovery after surgery is not a passive process. The right therapeutic intervention — applied at the right time — can dramatically reduce swelling, minimise scarring, restore mobility faster, and reduce the risk of complications such as lymphedema, fibrosis, and nerve adhesion.
Lisa is uniquely qualified to deliver comprehensive post-surgical care. Her CLT (lymphatic therapy) and CLLLT (cold laser therapy) certifications, combined with her 25+ years of clinical experience, allow her to combine the most effective modalities — MLD, BIOFLEX laser, therapeutic massage, and myofascial relmodalities—MLD,sonalised recovery protocol for each client.
Active Release Techniques (ART) for post-surgical recovery
Surgery leaves more than an incision — as tissue heals, scar tissue and adhesions can bind muscle, fascia, and nerves, limiting movement long after the wound has closed. ART uses precise tension combined with guided movement to release these adhesions and restore glide between healing tissues. Lisa holds full-body ART certification plus the advanced Masters credential — a level of ART training few massage therapists in the Bow Valley hold.
Post-operative care for a wide range of surgeries
Lisa’s multimodal approach is applicable across the full spectrum of surgical procedures encountered in orthopaedic, aesthetic, and dental medicine.
Hip and knee replacement, rotator cuff repair, ACL reconstruction, spinal surgery, and fracture fixation — restoring strength, mobility, and comfort.
Post-liposuction, abdominoplasty, breast augmentation and reconstruction, and facial procedures — reducing bruising, swelling, and supporting optimal aesthetic outcomes.
Wisdom tooth extraction, jaw realignment, and TMJ surgery — reducing post-operative oedema, managing nerve sensitivity, and supporting tissue repair.
Post-mastectomy, lymph node dissection, and other oncological procedures — with specialist lymphedema prevention and management protocols.
Targeted myofascial and laser therapy to soften adhesions, improve scar mobility, and prevent the chronic pain and restricted movement that poorly managed scar tissue causes.
