A licensed massage therapist since 2001 and a certified lymphedema therapist since 2005, I have 300 hours of training in lymphatic drainage, including advanced study at the famed Foldi Clinic in Germany.  I am licensed in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia.

I have extensive experience working with clients diagnosed with lymphedema, providing lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling, compression bandaging and teaching clients how to successfully manage their lymphedema independently.  In addition, I have considerable experience working with patients before and after surgery (joint replacements, plastic surgery, liposuction) using lymphatic drainage to reduce bruising, swelling and pain.

I specialize in lymphatic drainage for the treatment of lymphedema, oncology massage for adult and pediatric patients, therapeutic massage, energy healing & Integrative Reflexology.

This was my first time having a lymphatic massage. The pre treatment discussion was thorough and the time went by very quickly. I look forward to my next visit

Jill is an excellent listener and a skilled professional. I came to Jill for Lymphatic Massage therapy after plastic surgery to alleviate the discomfort and swelling primarily in my abdomen and back. I felt a difference after my first treatment and have continued to see her twice a week. My progress has been amazing. My range of motion has increased greatly while my swelling and discomfort has decreased. Jill is also a great communicator. She followed up after my first treatment to see how I was doing and asked for suggestions for what I might need during my next session. She continues to follow up with me and always asks how I am feeling and what I want to work on with each visit. Jill also provided suggestions for things that I can do on my own between treatments to help me to continue to make progress. Jill is very calm, friendly and knowledgeable. She made me feel very comfortable right from the start. I highly recommend her.

This was my first post surgery lymphatic massage and it was different but amazing. I went in thinking it was going to be an aggressive massage but it wasn't 10/10 for me

The lymphatic drainage massage with Jill Nelson was excellent -- effective, informative and enjoyable. Jill is highly skilled and very personable. She spent more than an hour with me and followed up by email the next day. I saw immediate improvement, and plan to continue monthly sessions with her.
