9 Best Lymphatic Drainage Massage Singapore (November 2026)

Its lymphatic drainage page covers post-surgical swelling and lymphoedema, and names the main schools of MLD (Vodder, Földi, Casley-Smith and Leduc). It also says plainly who should be careful: people with an acute infection, untreated heart or kidney failure, a deep vein thrombosis or cancer. Its liposuction guide is the most useful planning document I found anywhere in Singapore. Sessions run 60 minutes, gentle daily sessions can start in the first week if your surgeon clears you and the drains are out, and most patients need between six and 20 treatments, with ten to 12 being typical.

The clinic was founded by Jenny Huang, who holds a Master's in Physical Therapy from the University of Texas. It doesn't publish fees, and the MLD page doesn't say which therapist holds which certification, so ask both questions when you book. Its FAQ notes that most insurers cover physiotherapy, which is worth checking against your policy.

Read the small print, though. The menu describes the MLD itself as a 45-minute rhythmic massage, so the hour includes the time around it. That is normal for a hotel spa. LifeSpa sits on Levels 4 and 5 of the Carlton Hotel on Bras Basah Road, and it won The Singapore Women's Weekly Spa Awards title for best detoxing massage for this treatment back in 2018.

At 4.4 stars across 251 Google reviews, the Carlton spa rates a little lower than the clinics here. This is the one for a heavy-legs, post-flight sort of week, not for a post-surgery plan.

The clinic's physiotherapists are AHPC-registered with at least five years of postgraduate experience, and an average of over 15 years each. Its MLD page covers lymphoedema, swelling after surgery or a serious injury, and sinus and head congestion. It cites a study suggesting MLD in the first 21 days after surgery can help lymph vessels reconnect across a scar.

It doesn't publish prices, and it is open on weekdays and Saturday mornings only. I also cover it in my guide to the best physiotherapy clinics in Singapore, where its no-package approach is the main reason it made the list.

Its herbal fusion massage also mentions lymphatic drainage, so you can fold it into a more relaxing session. The spa has traded since 2006 and sits on Level 3 of 25 North Bridge Road. At 4.7 stars across 611 Google reviews, it has the biggest review count on this list.

The catch is the price. Nothing is listed online, so call first and ask for the cost of a single MLD session before you agree to anything bigger.

That last part matters. For lymphoedema, a well-fitted garment does a lot of the work between sessions. Gregory Phua, a registered nurse and University of Sydney graduate, joined the team in 2023, and the practice also takes clients for care after an operation.

It is a small practice in a quiet street near Serangoon Gardens, not a spa, and it has no Google reviews yet. Prices aren't listed, so ask on the phone, and ask which MLD and decongestive therapy qualifications the therapist treating you holds.

The treatment runs 60 minutes, or 90 with the consultation, and it is offered at all 11 outlets, from The Centrepoint and Holland Village to Tampines and Lentor. Two rules to know before you book: it is for women aged 23 and above, and you pay online when you make the booking.

The S$38 trial is a sales appointment as much as a massage, so decide your budget before you go in. The Centrepoint outlet holds 4.4 stars across 331 Google reviews, and One Holland Village 4.7 across 343. The bojin part makes this a TCM spa treatment, not clinical MLD.

Both sit inside its Divine Slim programme, which is hands-on with no machines and no supplements to buy: 12 sessions over 42 days, or 16 over 56, at two sessions a week. That is a course, not a one-off, so it suits someone who wants structure. It has traded since 2010 from 20 Cecil Street and now has a second centre at The Heeren on Orchard Road.

The Cecil Street centre holds 4.9 stars across 260 Google reviews. TCM gua sha is not clinical MLD, and its slimming effects are not clinically established, so keep it away from post-surgical swelling unless your surgeon agrees. Prices are given at consultation. My slimming centre guide has more on how its programme works.

Lymphatic drainage is part of its body massage menu, and it has sold a signature drainage massage for mothers after a C-section. One review on its site describes a lymphatic session that eased breastfeeding engorgement after one visit. It doesn't publish prices online and says packages change, so ask for the per-session price before you buy a confinement bundle.

The Paragon spa holds 4.9 stars across 450 Google reviews. If you had a C-section, get your doctor's go-ahead before anyone works near the scar. My guide to the best postnatal massage in Singapore compares it with seven other confinement massage services.

Its Lymphatic Flow facial is S$260 for 90 minutes, the Deep Vac facial includes a lymphatic drainage step at S$290, and a 30-minute neck treatment with lymphatic drainage massage costs S$60. That neck treatment is the cheapest way here to find out whether you like the feel of it.

It holds 4.6 stars across 64 Google reviews, a smaller sample than the others, and reviewers mention a lack of hard selling more than once. It does face and neck only, so go elsewhere for legs or post-surgical swelling.
