Jennifer Applington, LMT is a Washington state native and has been a Licensed Massage therapist since 2006. She relocated to Florida in 2021 and continues to practice the medicine that she loves. Her passion for helping people to live pain-free stems from growing up watching her Mother suffer debilitating pain from scoliosis. She remembers her Father always massaging her back and shoulders and Jennifer would mimic this with everyone who would let her. Shortly after graduating from High School she received a postcard advertising a local massage school – she signed up the next day! Jennifers feels that massage therapy is her calling and that she always knew that this is what she was supposed to do. She specializes in medical, sports and lymphatic drainage massage. Jennifer also believes that each person needs to be treated as an individual; and she prides herself in trying to learn what is causing the pain and not just treating the “area” that hurts, in order to achieve long lasting results. Some of the issues she addresses are: sciatica, rotator cuff injuries, thoracic outlet syndrome, and swelling from surgeries or cancer.
Massage Therapy
Swedish massage uses long strokes and light-to-firm pressure to promote circulation and general relaxation.
Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage is a useful therapy option when there is an illness or injury that causes swelling that clogs the lymphatic ducts. Lymphatic drainage massage helps to prevent lymphedema after surgery where the lymph can be moved and encouraged to return to the blood stream. Lymphatic drainage massage helps to speed up the healing process and can be used to help reduce pain associated with many disease processes and chronic venous insufficiency. Procedures where Lymphatic drainage is often recommended would be post-operatively liposuction, breast augmentation, or mastectomy.
