Sharon does what no doctor can or will. If you have mysterious puffiness or sloshy ankles or swollen lymph nodes or just feel sluggish, I recommend scheduling a consult. If you have undergone chemo or had a recent surgery, for sure get to her for a good flush of your lymphatic plumbing. After rounds of tests and doctors who discounted even my most physically obvious and visually apparent symptoms, I have a new body, resolving symptoms, and peace of mind thanks to Sharon Vogel’s expertise and treatments. We are so lucky to have her in our area!

I had no reaction to yesterdays treatment. perhaps 15 minutes does not make any sense. I would think having had a pet scan the day before, would have elicited some drainage response.

Two years ago, I had my meniscus removed from my left knee. Prior to and for two years thereafter, I have shuffled from four different surgeons, leg compression pumps had wrapping therapy (to the knee not the whole leg) and have been left with a plastic surgeon who wants to do some serious surgery. No way!
I found Sharon via google. I went in for a consultation feeling somewhat skeptical. After meeting her staff, seeing her facilities as well as how I was treated, I felt at ease. Sharon talked with me thoroughly about my specific problem areas as well as showed me pictures and educated me on fibrosis and lymphodema...clearly something that none of my previous surgeons even attempted to explain. Sharon is no nonsense and I’m a bottom line gal so I deferred to her expertise and start my first appointment on Monday. I left with a renewed feeling of hope.

I've been going to NLC for massage treatments monthly for over a year and would recommend to anyone looking for skilled massage therapist (although they offer many other services). This is not a spa in the sense of a typical beauty/massage spa. However, the space is clean, and the staff friendly and knowledgeable and they offer many other services such as lymphatic treatment, etc. . It's conveniently located and easy to get an appointment.

I had constant chest pain for three days prior to my appointment! Then poof! I had a couple of sessions and no more chest pain. I had even gone to the emergency room and all the tests were negative, yet I was told the gold standard was to have more invasive tests. I don't ever suggest anyone not follow up with their physician but the lymphatic drainage center saved me from constant chest pain!! Thank you Sharon Vogel. You are a God sent!!

I see her regularly to keep my autoimmune disease under control. She releives my chronic inflammation and I can visably see and feel the difference. My puffy face and tight shoulders are gone and I feel like and more flexible. I always seek out Sharons lymphatic drainage when I start and finish a detox series.

My wife has chronic pain and looks forward to her session with Sharon. She creates a calming experience that drives healing. I honestly do not know where we would be without her help. We have tried 4 other lymphatic practitioners with very little results. However, one session with Sharon and there is already a noticeable change in my wife's pain, swelling, and rest. Simply the best in class!
