The lymphatic system is a vital part of your immune system, acting as the body’s "waste removal" network. Unlike the heart, the lymphatic system does not have a pump; it relies on movement and specialized pressure to circulate fluid. When this system becomes sluggish or blocked—often due to surgery, injury, or chronic conditions—it can lead to painful swelling, heaviness, and a compromised immune response.
Lymphatic Massage is a specialized, gentle technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid. By using light, rhythmic strokes, our therapists help guide fluid toward healthy lymph nodes, reducing edema (swelling) and detoxifying the body’s tissues.

Lymphatic Massage Therapy is proviced by Ms. Annie Robinett BS, LMT, CMLDT, CLT
Annie started her career in the healthcare field when she graduated from Virginia Tech with a B.S. in Human Nutrition, Foods, and Exercise. After spending two semesters interning at chiropractic clinics, she decided that she wanted to integrate her knowledge of human anatomy and physiology into a career where she could help her clients heal in a hands-on setting. She earned her Pennsylvania massage therapy license and her reflexology certification at the Academy of Massage Therapy & Bodyworks. Since then, she completed her equine massage certification at Delaware Valley University, finished Klose Training’s certified manual lymphatic drainage therapist (CMLDT) program, and became a certified lymphedema therapist (CLT) through Monarch Continuing Education in Virginia.
Annie currently sees human clients for lymphedema maintenance, manual lymphatic drainage sessions, oncology and prenatal massages, and foot reflexology treatments. She also travels to various oncology support groups throughout the state to discuss the importance of manual lymphatic drainage therapy for cancer patients. When not at work, Annie enjoys volunteering with her local fire department.
