Elite Swimmer to Lymphatic Therapy...
The Story behind Lymph & Body
Hello, I’m Jennie, founder of Lymph & Body.
I am professionally trained and fully insured in massage therapy, with extensive study in anatomy, physiology and the lymphatic system. Before entering the therapy field, I spent years competing as an international swimmer, developing a strong understanding of biomechanics, recovery, and how the body responds to training and stress. I first qualified in massage therapy, including lymphatics, in 2015, alongside additional training in sports massage.
Through experience, I’ve learned that lasting results don’t always come from deeper pressure, but from working with the body’s natural rhythms. Lymphatic work allows me to support people experiencing fluid retention, recovery from surgery, post-oncology-related treatment, fatigue and overall wellbeing in a way that is both effective and lasting.
Lymph & Body was created as a calm, welcoming space in Mount Cotton, where you can truly unwind, switch off, and leave feeling more balanced, energised and at ease. I genuinely love this work, and I'm honoured to care for every person who walks through my door.

Enhancing Health with Every Touch
Purpose-Led
Every treatment has a clear purpose. Whilst following established lymphatic drainage pathways, each session is adapted to your individual needs and focused on the areas where support is needed most.
Anatomy-Informed
The Lymphatic vessels we aim to influence lie close to the skin surface. Our anatomy-informed approach therefore uses light, precise pressure designed to work with the lymphatic system, rather than the muscles beneath it.
Calm-Environment
At Lymph & Body treatments are designed to support both the lymphatic and nervous systems, with music carefully selected to encourage nervous system regulation and parasympathetic relaxation.
Education-Focused
We believe education is an important part of lymphatic care. Clients are supported with clear, evidence-informed resources to better understand their lymphatic system and how to support it between treatments.

Treatment Room Playlist
Enjoy the same calming music played during your treatment at home. The playlist is carefully selected to encourage nervous system relaxation, slower rhythms, gentle tones, and calming soundscapes that help the body shift into a parasympathetic "rest and restore" state. When the nervous system relaxes, the body is better able to support circulation, recovery, and healthy lymphatic flow, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your treatment.
