and Therapeutic Massage
Serving Greenville and the Upstate of South Carolina
Whether you're seeking relaxation, support during recovery, or specialized lymphatic care,
Mackenzie provides individualized massage therapy tailored to your needs and goals.
How Can I Help?
Individualized Care to Meet Your Needs
Lymphatic massage can support recovery after surgery, reduce swelling or fluid retention, and assist with muscular recovery.
It can also provide a deeply restorative and relaxing experience, with each session thoughtfully personalized to meet your needs.
Mackenzie uses the highly respected, most evidence-based form of lymphatic massage called the Vodder Technique.
Lymphatic Wellness Support
Gentle Manual Lymphatic Drainage designed to support healthy lymphatic flow and move excess interstitial fluid, supporting cellular health, immunity, and your body’s innate ability to heal.
Pain and Muscle Tension
Both therapeutic and lymphatic massage can relieve pain and muscle tension. I offer combined sessions that can include therapeutic techniques to reduce tension and lymphatic massage to move lactic acid and other cellular metabolites.
Prenatal Care
Manual lymphatic drainage is safe during pregnancy and can help reduce heaviness and fluid retention. It also offers a loving, supportive touch that can relax the nervous system and give you a much-needed moment to rest.
Recovery and Swelling
Specialized lymphatic techniques can reduce swelling or puffiness. It can also support recovery after surgery or injury, based on your provider's recommendations and your individual needs.
A clinical perspective with a personalized approach
My name is Mackenzie Thoma. I'm a licensed massage therapist and a Certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist, and I provide lymphatic massage services in Greenville County and the Upstate.
My massage techniques are informed by eight years of practical experience, my studies in Clinical Health Studies (pre-physical therapy), and a Master’s degree in Applied Clinical Nutrition. I use intuition to guide me throughout your session, tuning into your body’s unique needs.
I provide gentle Manual Lymphatic Drainage using the Vodder Technique and add therapeutic massage when appropriate. Each session starts with a conversation about your concerns, your objectives, and the message your body is sending you that day, followed by an explanation of expectations so you feel safe and can relax into the massage experience. My goal is that you feel loved, supported, and safe during your sessions with me.
