Why Clients Trust Us

Irene P

After my surgery, my body was very swollen, and my surgeon recommended I try lymphatic drainage massage to help with the recovery. I reached out to Garnet Beauty and Skincare and from the very first contact, Tatjana was incredibly welcoming and friendly. She immediately put me at ease with her warm and professional manner. The massage itself was excellent gentle, effective, and clearly tailored to support post-surgical healing. After just one session my body felt lighter, comfortable, and the swelling had definitely gone down. I would highly recommend Tatjana to anyone looking for massages.

Michelle G

It was a pleasure to meet Tatjana - she is so welcoming and friendly. The treatment (MLD) was explained to me prior to having it, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Super relaxing, very gentle with zero pain. The pain I had upon arrival is already reduced, literally within an hour of having the MLD. I will definitely book again and cannot recommend Tatjana enough. Thank you so much.

Jane C

Tatjana was absolutely amazing! A beautiful lady. Suffered with stress with Neck, shoulders, back but just after 2 sessions back feels normal again! Shoulders feel like they’ve dropped back to normal. Definitely will be going back for other treatments & massages!. Thank you Tatjana you’re amazing, definitely recommend you.

James M

Outstanding - scar massage treatment for some tightness - Tatjana soon put me at ease and started. Very relaxing (dozed off) and combination of ultrasound and massage helped pretty much immediately. Will definitely revisit.

Donna A

I had a reflexology session with Tatjana, and it was wonderful! She made me feel comfortable right away, and her technique was so relaxing. I felt a sense of calm and relief after the session. Definitely recommend Tatjana for anyone looking to unwind.

⚕️ Advanced Postoperative MLD – The Science of Healing Beautifully ⚕️

After surgery, your body works hard to repair, detoxify, and restore balance.
But when lymphatic flow is disrupted by swelling, fluid build-up, or trauma to the tissues, recovery can slow down.

That’s where Advanced Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) plays a crucial role. 🌿

This specialised technique uses gentle, rhythmic movements to:
✨ Stimulate lymphatic circulation and boost immune response
✨ Reduce postoperative swelling, bruising, and inflammation
✨ Prevent fibrosis and hard tissue formation
✨ Promote oxygen and nutrient delivery to healing tissues
✨ Improve scar appearance and overall skin texture
✨ Support comfort, mobility, and body symmetry

Each session is tailored to your specific procedure, healing stage, and body response — making it a vital part of any effective postoperative care plan.

This isn’t just a massage — it’s a medically informed therapy that helps your body heal faster, feel lighter, and reveal your best results sooner. 🌸

💫 Support your recovery. Honour your body. Heal with intention.

Did you know scar tissue isn’t just skin-deep?
It can affect how you move, how your skin feels, and even how connected you feel to your body.

Scar therapy helps:
✨ Release tightness and restriction
✨ Improve circulation and mobility
✨ Soften tissue and reduce discomfort
✨ Restore body awareness and confidence

You can usually begin scar therapy from 8 weeks post-surgery, once your incision has fully closed and healed. Every gentle touch supports your recovery — inside and out. 💛

💧 Lipoedema vs Lymphedema: Know the Difference + How MLD Helps
Both Lipoedema and Lymphedema cause swelling and discomfort — but they’re not the same, and understanding the difference helps you find the right care. 💙

💠 Lipoedema
• A chronic fat disorder causing painful, symmetrical swelling (usually in the legs, hips, or arms).
• Fat cells trap fluid, leading to tenderness, heaviness, and easy bruising.
• Often mistaken for obesity — but it’s not caused by diet or inactivity.

💧 Lymphedema
• Caused by a damaged or blocked lymphatic system, leading to fluid buildup and swelling.
• Usually affects one limb more than the other.
• Can cause skin thickening, heaviness, and recurring infections.

✨ How Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) Helps
MLD is a gentle, rhythmic technique designed to:
🌿 Stimulate lymph flow and reduce swelling
💆‍♀️ Relieve pain, pressure, and sensitivity
🩵 Improve tissue health and circulation
🌸 Promote relaxation and emotional wellbeing

With regular MLD — combined with compression, movement, and good self-care — you can experience:
✅ Lighter, more comfortable limbs
✅ Reduced swelling and pain
✅ Improved mobility and energy
✅ A renewed sense of wellbeing

💧 Lipoedema and Lymphedema are often misunderstood, but awareness is the first step toward healing.

💆‍♀️ Book your session today with Tatjana and give your body the care it deserves. 🌿

The secret first step to boosting your lymphatic system ✨

✨ Did you know your lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump? ✨
That’s why every MLD session starts with diaphragmatic breathing – also called tummy breathing.

Instead of lifting your chest when you breathe, you allow your tummy to rise and fall. This gentle movement acts like a natural pump for your lymphatic system. 🌊

💚 Benefits of tummy breathing:
✔️ Stimulates lymph flow and reduces swelling
✔️ Relaxes the nervous system and lowers stress
✔️ Improves oxygen exchange, speeding up healing
✔️ Prepares your body to get the best results from MLD

It might feel strange at first, but once mastered, it becomes a powerful tool you can use anytime to support your body’s natural healing. 🌿

🔎 Scar Aftercare – Why It Matters

Once your wound has closed, the healing process continues beneath the skin. The way you care for your scar during this stage will affect how it looks and feels long term.

Here are the key tools for effective scar management:

💧 Moisturising Creams

Keep skin hydrated

Reduce itching and tightness

Improve elasticity in the healing tissue

🩹 Silicone Pads

Create a breathable barrier over the scar

Help flatten and soften raised or red scars

Reduce the risk of excessive scar tissue forming

💎 Silicone Gel

Easy to apply and invisible once dry

Great for scars on visible areas like the face or neck

Can be used under clothing or makeup

✨ Tip: For best results, apply silicone gel or pads consistently for at least 12 hours a day over several months. The earlier you start (once the wound is fully closed), the better the outcome.

Scars are a natural part of healing, but with the right care, you can support smoother, softer, and less visible results. 🌸

✨ Why MLD is So Important After Liposuction ✨

Liposuction shapes the outside, but it also puts stress on the inside. That’s where Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) comes in 💆‍♀️✨

🌿 What happens after liposuction?

Your lymphatic system becomes overloaded with excess fluid, waste products, and inflammation.

This leads to swelling, stiffness, tenderness, and sometimes fluid pockets (seromas).

Without proper care, scar tissue and fibrosis (hard, lumpy areas) may form, affecting your final results.

🌿 Possible complications without MLD:
⚠️ Excessive swelling that slows healing
⚠️ Fluid build-up (seromas) that may need draining
⚠️ Fibrosis & hard lumps, leaving uneven texture
⚠️ Prolonged bruising, discomfort & pain
⚠️ Delayed healing, increasing infection risk
⚠️ Poor scar formation

🌿 How does MLD help?
✔️ Stimulates your lymphatic system to clear waste & toxins
✔️ Speeds up healing after surgery
✔️ Reduces swelling, bruising & discomfort
✔️ Prevents seromas and fibrosis
✔️ Improves skin texture for smoother, more even results
✔️ Boosts immunity to lower infection risk
✔️ Helps you move and feel more comfortable during recovery

🌿 Plan ahead:
📅 Book your MLD sessions before your surgery so you’re prepared and organised. Supporting your body from day one makes recovery smoother and results better.

💜 Remember: Surgery is only half the journey — healing well is what makes your results last.

✨ What is Cording (Axillary Web Syndrome)? ✨

Cording, also known as Axillary Web Syndrome (AWS), is a common side effect after breast or lymph node surgery.

It feels like tight, rope-like bands under the skin that can run from the armpit down the arm, sometimes reaching the wrist. These cords are thought to be hardened lymphatic vessels or scar tissue.

👉 Common symptoms:

Pain or tightness in the armpit or arm

Restricted shoulder movement

Visible or palpable "cords" under the skin

🌿 The good news:
With gentle stretching, movement, and therapies such as Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and Scar Therapy, symptoms can improve, and mobility can be restored.

💚 Always check with your healthcare provider or therapist for the right approach for you.

✨ Your healing journey is unique. Be patient, kind, and consistent with your recovery. ✨

💚 Relief from symptoms such as pain, nausea, or digestive discomfort

✨ The Power of Your Lymphatic System ✨

Your lymphatic system is one of the most important (yet often overlooked!) systems in your body. 🌿

💧 It works like your body’s natural “clean-up crew” — helping to remove waste, toxins, and excess fluids.
🛡️ It supports your immune system, keeping you strong and resilient.
💆‍♀️ It helps reduce swelling, puffiness, and that feeling of heaviness in the body.

That’s where Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) comes in.
This gentle, rhythmic massage technique boosts your lymph flow, helping your body work at its best — even if you don’t have a medical condition.

✨ Benefits of MLD for everyone:
✔️ Strengthens the immune system
✔️ Reduces water retention & bloating
✔️ Improves skin clarity & radiance
✔️ Enhances relaxation and sleep quality
✔️ Supports detoxification and recovery after exercise or travel

🌿 Whether you’re recovering, recharging, or simply want to feel lighter and more balanced — MLD is a gift to your body and mind.

✨ Post-Op Healing Boost ✨
After surgery, your body needs the right support to heal efficiently — that’s where Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) comes in.

🌀 Why MLD?
Surgery can disrupt your lymphatic system, leading to swelling, bruising, and discomfort. MLD is a gentle, rhythmic massage technique that:
✅ Reduces swelling & fluid retention
✅ Speeds up healing
✅ Minimizes post-op discomfort
✅ Prevents/minimizes fibrosis

💫 Then comes Scar Therapy:
Once your incisions are healed, scar therapy helps:
🔹 Soften and flatten scar tissue
🔹 Improve skin texture and mobility
🔹 Reduce tightness or restrictions
🔹 Enhance overall aesthetic results

📅 Best results happen when MLD starts early and scar therapy follows at the right stage of healing.

📌 Lipedema vs Lymphedema: Know the Difference

Many people confuse lipedema and lymphedema — but they’re very different conditions.

💠 Lipedema
▫️ A fat disorder, mostly in women
▫️ Symmetrical fat buildup (hips, thighs, legs — rarely the feet)
▫️ Painful, tender, easy bruising
▫️ Often triggered by hormones or genetics
▫️ Not caused by diet or lifestyle

💧 Lymphedema
▫️ Caused by damage or blockage in the lymphatic system
▫️ Swelling usually in one limb
▫️ Skin may feel tight or thick
▫️ Can result from surgery, cancer treatment, or infection
▫️ Needs lymphatic drainage / compression

🌿 MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage) is highly beneficial for both conditions — helping reduce swelling, improve circulation, and support healing.

✨ If you’re struggling with either, you’re not alone — support and relief are available.

🩹 Why Scar Therapy After a C-Section Matters 🩹

Your C-section scar is more than skin deep — it’s a reminder of strength, but it can also cause discomfort if not properly cared for.

✨ Why It’s Important:

Scar tissue can bind layers of skin, muscle & fascia

This may lead to tightness, pain, or even back/pelvic issues

Emotionally, it can help reconnect with your body after birth

💆‍♀️ Benefits of Scar Therapy:
✅ Reduces tightness & restrictions
✅ Supports healthy tissue healing
✅ Improves appearance & mobility
✅ Enhances sensation and comfort
✅ Aids in emotional healing post-birth

🌿 Gentle, hands-on therapy helps your body heal from the inside out.

💬 Have questions or want to know if scar therapy is right for you? Send a DM — I’d love to help.

🦋 June is Lipoedema Awareness Month 💜

Did you know that Lipoedema affects nearly 11% of women worldwide, yet it’s often misdiagnosed or misunderstood?

Lipoedema is a chronic condition involving a painful and abnormal build-up of fat, typically in the legs and arms. It’s not caused by diet or lifestyle—and it’s not just "weight gain."

💆‍♀️ How MLD Helps:
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialized massage technique that encourages natural lymph flow. For those living with Lipoedema, MLD can:

✨ Reduce pain and swelling
✨ Improve mobility and comfort
✨ Support emotional and physical well-being

Let’s shine a light on this invisible illness. If you or someone you know is struggling with unexplained leg pain, swelling, or fat accumulation, don’t stay silent. 💜

📢 Spread awareness. Encourage early diagnosis. Support better care.

Many of you know how passionate I am about the work I do — helping people recover after surgery, supporting those living with cancer, and providing care through Manual Lymphatic Drainage and scar therapy.

Every day, I meet incredible individuals facing the toughest challenges, especially those going through or recovering from cancer. Their strength inspires me deeply.

💪 That’s why on July 12th, I’ll be getting muddy (literally!) by taking part in Pretty Muddy® – a 5K obstacle course to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

This cause is so close to my heart, and I’d be truly grateful for your support.
Every penny makes a difference. Every donation brings us closer to life-saving breakthroughs and better support for those in need.

🙏 If you can, please donate or share my fundraising page -
https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/tatjanas-race-for-life-30

Let’s do this together — for those we love, for those we’ve lost, and for the hope we carry forward. 💖

Scar Massage Therapy Works Wonders

No matter how old your scar is, scar massage therapy will help soften the tissue, improve flexibility, and reduce tightness.

Just a few minutes a day can:

Break down thick, raised tissue

Boost circulation for healing

Fade the scar’s appearance over time

Consistency is key. Scars tell a story—but with the right care, they don’t have to define you.

Sunkissed, not sunburned!

Summer is nearly here…
Time to soak up the vibes, not the damage.
Enjoy the sun. Relax. Refresh.
But remember:
Skin first, sun second. Always SPF.

Because glowing skin starts with protection.
Your future self will thank you.

Tension headaches and migraines don’t stand a chance. A focused back massage can ease muscle strain, improve blood flow, and calm the nervous system — naturally reducing migraine frequency and intensity. Your relief starts at the spine.

Hope Through Holistic Healing 💗

Every time I support a client recovering from surgery—especially cancer—I’m reminded why I do what I do. This work is deeply personal to me. I lost my dad to gastric cancer when he was just fortynine, and I was only seventeen. That pain never fully leaves, but it has fueled my purpose. I'm so grateful to be able to offer even a small amount of relief, comfort, or strength to those going through the toughest times. Holding space for healing is an honour I don't take lightly.

💙 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💙

In the quiet of the bluebells, we’re reminded that healing is not just about the body, but the mind too. 🌸 As massage therapists, we hold space for you to relax, release, and find peace.

In a world that moves so fast, remember: it's okay to take a moment for yourself. Your mental health matters, and we’re here to support you—body, mind, and soul. 💆‍♀️💙

Let’s talk about mental health, embrace self-care, and nurture ourselves through every season of life.

Post-Op Healing Isn’t Always Smooth… But MLD Can Help!
Swelling, bruising, fibrosis, and discomfort are common after surgery — but they don’t have to be permanent.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, medically-backed technique that helps:

• Reduce swelling
• Minimize bruising
• Prevent or treat fibrosis
• Speed up recovery time
• Support immune response

If you're healing from lipo, tummy tuck, BBL, or any procedure — MLD can be a game changer.
Your body deserves proper care after surgery. Let’s get you back to feeling you.

Your body and mind are connected. Care for one, heal the other. Choose wellness every day.

Want Better-Looking Scars? Start here!

Silicone sheets, gels, and oils aren’t just skincare — they’re scar therapy.

Here’s why they matter:
• Hydration & protection: Silicone locks in moisture, softening and flattening scars.
• Reduces redness & itchiness: Helps calm inflammation and soothes the area.
• Boosts confidence: Better healing = smoother skin and less visible scarring.
• Clinically proven: Silicone is one of the top dermatologist-recommended treatments for scar management.

Whether it's post-surgery, acne, burns, or injury — don’t skip the silicone step in your recovery routine.

Supporting Healing, One Gentle Touch at a Time
Cancer treatment is tough—and recovery doesn’t stop when the treatment ends. That’s where MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage) and Scar Therapy step in.

Gentle MLD can help reduce swelling, improve lymph flow, and bring relief after surgery or radiation. Scar therapy softens and mobilizes scar tissue, helping with comfort, movement, and confidence.

Every step matters. Every touch counts.
Let’s show some love to those on the healing journey. You’re not alone.
